Sustainability
What we have changed, what we have not, and what we are still working on. No slogans — just the list.
Small house, small footprint, long thinking
We make four fragrances a year, not four hundred. That constraint is an environmental decision as much as an artistic one — and it means we can afford to do the slow, careful things.
Every bottle is glass, and glass is infinitely recyclable. The caps are metal. The cardboard is FSC-certified. The moulded pulp in the shipping box is recycled and recyclable. There is no plastic film in our packaging.
We are honest about the rest: our cartons still contain a small amount of plastic window film, and our air freight is not yet offset. Both are on the list for 2027.
- Glass and metal — infinitely recyclable, and recycled in the UAE.
- FSC-certified paper and board for every box.
- Plastic-free shipping protection made from recycled moulded pulp.
- Fairly sourced absolutes from growers we have visited.
What we have committed to
Plastic-free packaging
All moulded pulp and paper protection replaces expanded polystyrene and bubble wrap across our entire range.
Vegan formulas
Every Chris Diamond eau de parfum is vegan and cruelty-free. We do not test on animals and never have.
Consolidated shipping
Orders leaving the same week travel in one consignment, reducing the number of long-haul flights per bottle we sell.
Natural sourcing
Wherever a natural absolute performs as well as a synthetic, we use the natural — neroli, vanilla and patchouli included.
Waterless filling
Filling lines are closed-loop, so the alcohol and oil used in every bottle is fully recovered rather than washed away.
Refill programme
Bring an empty CD bottle back to the atelier and we will refill it at 30% of the original price, anywhere in the UAE.
