Sohum  | A  Passion For Fragrance

Est 2003…Product development of SOHUM’s products started many years earlier during childhood, when my affinity for fragrance and playful curiosity led to the sacrifice of my mother’s prized perfumes & face creams to the bathtub on a regular basis.


In 2003 SOHUM was born out of pure passion for perfume. A dream of re creating true scents of nature & creative compositions for a new world.
Starting with the simplest of raw materials sourced worldwide & traditional methods SOHUM’s patience for perfection has ensured growth to a refined fragrance collection that has endured, with stand out fragrances adored by many.


SOHUM is still a family business, 100% Australian owned and is proudly made in Melbourne Australia.

The word SOHUM is a meditation mantra and comes from the ancient Vedic texts of India. When uttered, the word itself is said to bring enormous blessings. Made up of 2 words, So & Hum, it represents the passage of the breath in and out of the nostrils. The ancient sages of India believed that if you listen carefully, you can hear the sound the breath makes on the inhalation as “So” and the sound of the exhalation as “Hum”. The mantra Sohum is said to express the powerful life-energy of the breath.

How do you choose what materials to use?

Each piece we create is the product of years of designing, sourcing, and producing with the highest-quality materials and with like-minded production partners. We thoroughly research and vet our raw materials to make sure they meet our standards, are good for you and better for the environment. In addition to thinking about the impact on people and the environment, we consider factors like availability, preferred fiber content, water and energy input, and GHG emissions.

Act natural. We also use mostly natural materials, which break down better and are less of a pollutant than the synthetic fibers that are being found in oceans and water supplies. 

Where are your products made?

All Sohum products are proudly made in Australia.

From time to time we may have a special item like a Candlle Cloche or Wick Trimming scissors for example that are sourced overseas.

Packaging of all Sohum products will clearly state the country of origin.
