Job description

Company : Birla Cosmetics Private Limited

Location : Worli, Mumbai (5 Days – Work from Office)

Brands :

  • Contraband - https : / / itscontraband.com /
  • LOVETC - https : / / lovetc.com /

About us :

CONTRABAND — is a luxury fine fragrance brand built on the belief that having it all, should still leave you wanting more. Crafted by world class perfumers, Contraband’s scents are bold, unfiltered, and unforgettable.

We create perfumes that turn heads. Now, we’re looking for someone with a nose sharp enough to lead that charge.

Position Overview :

We’re seeking a Fragrance Evaluator — someone who can smell the invisible, interpret the emotional, and bring olfactory imagination to life. As the in-house sensory specialist, you will be the guardian of scent quality, personality, and consistency across the Contraband line. You'll collaborate with perfumers, chemists, creatives, and marketers to ensure every bottle lives up to our rebellious promise.

This role is for someone who understands that a top note is an entrance, a base note is a memory, and the space in between is where magic happens.

Responsibilities :

  • Evaluate & Curate : Assess fragrance samples with precision — from formulation trials and production batches to competitor benchmarks.
  • Keep it Consistent : Ensure olfactory quality and stability across all formats, batches, and time.
  • Act as Our Nose : Translate brand stories and briefs into scent feedback that perfumers and product teams can work with.
  • Work with the Rebels : Partner with perfumers, R&D, creatives, and marketing to refine olfactive direction and brand DNA.
  • Guard the Signature : Be the internal authority on fragrance accuracy, quality, and Contraband’s olfactive identity.
  • Sniff Out Trends : Stay ahead of industry trends, raw material innovations, and international fragrance movements — then shape them for the Indian luxury market.
  • Bridge Art and Science : Collaborate with lab teams to troubleshoot formulation issues, aging, or unwanted scent drift.
  • Champion Sensory Experience : Design and lead internal sensory panels or consumer feedback sessions to validate fragrance profiles.
  • Requirements :

  • 5+ years of experience in fragrance evaluation, sensory science, or perfumery (preferably in luxury, niche, or premium fragrance).
  • Deep knowledge of fragrance families, raw materials, and how a scent evolves on skin, fabric, and time.
  • Strong documentation and communication skills : you can describe a scent better than a poet.
  • Passion for craftsmanship and a bold, Contraband-style aesthetic.
  • A sense of ownership. You care deeply about quality, detail, and creative excellence.
  • Nice to have :

  • Experience with IFRA standards, allergen regulations, or global fragrance compliance.
  • Exposure to perfume formulation, raw material sourcing, or QC testing.
  • Worked with or trained under a fragrance house or niche brand.
  • A creative side — maybe you write, design, or just appreciate the art of scent storytelling.
