Technologies
In August 2019, Max Millies, the nose of Earthgro Fragrances and the name behind Maxiamo Perfumes, went to Europe and visited places perfume manufacturing facilities in cities famous in the perfume industry; Grasse in France and Cologne in Germany. In particular, he observed first-hand the production processes and marketing at these facilities of which the most famous are Fragonard, Molinard, and Galimard in Grasse, and Mäurer & Wirtz in Cologne.

“The Heidelberg litho press and Heidelberg finishing press acquired in 2017 allow higher quality and quicker turnaround times during production. These Heidelberg KORS and Heidelberg GT presses are classics and still work very well.”
Max Millies, Perfumer, Earthgro Fragrances, April 2018
“Efforts to control VOC (volatile organic compounds) in perfume production could be scaled down thanks to proprietary micro-emulsion-based technology that we have introduced. This decreases the ethanol content and allows compositions to be compliant with USA and EU air pollution laws.”
