The Scent
of Power

House of Eraya, a premium lifestyle house, was preparing to launch 1:9, its new luxury fragrance line.

The brief was clear: create something beyond "for him" or "for her", beyond fleeting trends, something that felt timeless and unapologetically bold.

But launching in the luxury space meant more than just product-it needed positioning, language, and presence

Crafting the
Blueprint

We began by scanning India's luxury fragrance landscape-where most players played it too gendered, too safe, or too steeped in legacy. That's exactly where 1:9 could stand apart.

  • Reframed the category - moving beyond "perfume" to position 1:9 as elixirs.
  • Mapped the audience - creating psychographic personas and luxury buyer profiles.
  • Planned the journey - designing a 6-stage path from first discovery to brand advocacy.
  • Built the brand’s backbone - pillars of aspiration, personality, longevity, and ritual.

Guesswork

Instead of starting with design, we started with context. Not "What does the brand look like?" but "What world does it live in?"

That's how 1:9 launched as more than a product-it arrived as a statement, setting a new standard for perfume in India.

The launch delivered more than a product - it delivered presence.

A bold identity, a category-defining position, and storytelling assets gave 1:9 clarity in a cluttered market. Inside, the brand book became the north star for every team. Outside, the positioning sparked curiosity across influencers, platforms, and discovery channels.
