Olfactif was founded in 2013 by Tara Swords, a scent aficionado who wanted to connect artisan scent makers with fragrance lovers who were bored with mass-market scents.

In 2018, Olfactif was acquired by Danielle Fleming, Founder and Nose of Noteology (formerly NOTE Fragrances), a boutique perfumery and custom perfume studio headquartered in Scranton, PA. A fragrance veteran and serial entrepreneur, Danielle has been in the fragrance industry for over 19 years. From launching her own brands to analyzing consumer insights for Fortune 500 companies at Firmenich, Danielle has both breadth and depth in the world of all things scented.

Today, Olfactif remains the world's only curated fragrance subscription that features luxury, niche and indie scents from around the world. Every month, they source fragrances from the far reaches of the globe---Italy, France, England, Australia, and the Middle East, to bring these hard-to-find fragrances to the US.
