About us


Life should smell good.

People want better everyday products manufactured with as many fine, less toxic, ingredients as possible.  And, they want them to smell good. Distinct Brands gives you this option, providing 95 - 100% natural, aromatic apothecary, home and pet goods, made for this modern compromise.

After doing this for 15 years, we discovered, there is no shame in 95% natural. - Distinct Brands  

Simplicity.

Distinct Brands sources the finest ingredients the earth has to offer and manufactures luxurious and simple foundations for our products.  Often less than 5 natural, food or pharmaceutical grade ingredients, always free from preservatives, sulfates, parabens, phthalates and many other yucky things. Additionally, most of our products are vegan, with the exception of those featuring honey, milk and lanolin (as of this writing).

Scent.

Scent and flavor is powerful, affecting memories, emotions and attraction. Hands down, you want better products, but you also want more.  You want them to smell good.  This is where Distinct Brands comes to the rescue with our 95% natural brands scented with the finest perfume blends, created by us, through the artful use of the finest compounds available. 

Constantly becoming.

We believe that becoming better is the path to becoming our own version of perfect.  This goes for our brands too.  We aim to give you options for life's little things that really make you feel better about your choices.  We too deeply respect the planet and its role in the future of our children and its inhabitants (plant, animal and human animal), the ideals of sustainability, fair trade and cruelty free products.  We also believe that life is lived on a spectrum with a middle ground - and that's where you will find our Distinct Brands of Compromise.
