About Us

The Full Story

Welcome to C3oh Perfumes, an Indian perfume brand from Bangalore that brings together the depth of traditional fragrance culture and the creativity of contemporary perfumery. We create scents for men and women that are designed to feel personal: a reflection of your personality, your mood and the memories you want to carry with you.

At C3oh, we have always believed that perfume is more than a pleasant fragrance. It can change the way you feel, remind you of a person or place, and transport you to another world with a single spritz. For us, fragrance is emotion you can wear.

A Childhood Shaped by the Smell of Rain

For founder and Perfumer in Chief Aditya Banka, the journey into fragrance began long before C3oh had a name. As a child, he could often smell rain arriving 10 to 15 minutes before the first drops fell. It was not the sight of dark clouds that told him; it was the subtle change in the air and the unmistakable scent of the earth preparing for rain.

That childhood sensitivity became a lasting fascination with how scent connects us to the world around us. Why can the smell of rain bring back an entire season? Why can a familiar perfume make us remember someone instantly? And how can a fragrance capture the feeling of a beach, a forest, a celebration or a city after the rain?

Those questions became the beginning of Aditya's fragrance journey and, eventually, the foundation of C3oh Perfumes.

From Curiosity to C3oh Perfumes

C3oh was created to make the experience of fine fragrance more personal, expressive and accessible. Based in Bangalore, we have grown into an Indian perfume company offering hundreds of fragrances across different moods, occasions and fragrance families.

Our collection includes affordable luxury fragrances inspired by celebrated scent profiles as well as our own original creations. The C3oh Originals are where our most personal stories take shape. Collections such as the On the Beach Series turn moments, landscapes and emotions into perfumes that can be worn and remembered.

Our fragrances draw inspiration from the enigmatic and alluring charm of everyday objects, India's rich cultural heritage and the diversity of the natural world. Majestic mountains, lush forests, pristine beaches, vibrant cities and the atmosphere before rainfall can all become the starting point of a scent.

A Fragrance for Every Personality and Mood

C3oh offers a wide range of perfumes for men, perfumes for women and unisex perfumes, each with its own personality and story. Whether you are looking for something confident for work, memorable for a wedding, magnetic for a date night or comforting for everyday wear, our goal is to help you find a scent that feels like you.

You can also explore fragrance by character: from bright fruity perfumes and clean fresh perfumes to deep woody perfumes and rich oud perfumes. This makes discovering your next perfume easier, even if you are new to fragrance.

Quality, Craft and Considered Details

Our perfumes are carefully crafted using fine-quality ingredients, including selected natural ingredients and essential oils sourced from around the world. Every composition is approached with attention to balance, character and performance, so that the fragrance develops beautifully from its opening notes to its final dry-down.

We take pride in our cruelty-free and eco-friendly approach. We believe that a memorable fragrance experience should also be a considered one, and we continue to make thoughtful choices across our products and presentation.

That attention extends beyond the perfume itself. From the packaging to the fragrance inside, every detail is carefully considered to create a luxurious and personalised experience from start to finish—without making fine fragrance feel out of reach.

Making Fragrance More Experiential

C3oh is not only about choosing a finished perfume. Through our fragrance workshops and sensory experiences, we introduce people to the materials, ideas and emotions that shape perfumery. These experiences allow individuals and teams to explore scent creatively and understand how a perfume comes together.

This same spirit of discovery guides our online store. We want every customer—whether a fragrance enthusiast or someone buying their first perfume—to feel informed, curious and confident while choosing a scent.

Your Next Memory, Your Next Perfume

At C3oh, we believe that a fragrance is a memory waiting to be made. What began with a child sensing rain before it arrived has grown into a made-in-India perfume journey built around creation, balance and emotion.

We invite you to discover the enigma within each of our fragrances, explore our best-selling perfumes, and find the scent that feels like you.
