PRODUCT QUESTIONS
Vedic wisdom enlightens us we are all energy beings, our human body is made up of 7 primary energy centres known as the chakras. To allow energy to move freely, our chakra energy centres need to be fully balanced and unblocked. Unbalanced chakra energy impacts our physical, emotional and spiritual well being and it is the birth right of us all to live a life of abundance and high vibration.
Tulita fragrances fuse the Ayurvedic principles of specific plant extracts and botanicals known to heal the Chakra energy centres into our blend of all natural fragrances.
This is further intensified with the vedic wisdom of specific activated crystals and affirmations all known to balance each Chakra. All this potent wisdom is contained in every Tulita bottle to unlock your highest self.
Each ingredient is sourced from raw plant materials, such as essential oils, fractions of essential oils, naturally derived isolates, absolutes and resins
obtained from plants and flowers using distillation, expression and extraction
methods. Each ingredient is 100% natural of naturally derived as defined by ISO 9235.
Even the ethanol alcohol we use is non GMO, Organic Sugar cane ethanol from Australia.
- Traditional: Use mainly synthetic compounds that are designed to mimic natural aromas such as flowers, citrus and woody notes. Often include phthalates to make the fragrance last longer on the skin (and many other toxic compounds) but phthalates are well-known hormone disruptors.
- Clean: Created with safe synthetic materials and may list the ingredients for greater transparency (but not always). Most “clean” fragrances only have a few natural ingredients, or sometimes none at all.
- Natural: Each ingredient is derived from a natural source. Extremely rare in the fragrance industry due to high cost and highly skilled craftmanship required to layer complexity into the fragrance.
- Wellness benefits: Ayurvedic wisdom guides us to the deep knowledge that the closer we are to nature the closest we arrive to our highest vibration or flow state. This sparked strong vision that Tulita fragrance would always need to 100% natural to offer you a daily dose of natural botanicals via your fragrance routine.
- Health benefits: By opting for a natural fragrance you are safely avoiding the chemical compounds often contained in traditional or synthetic fragrances that are known carcinogens and endocrine (hormone) disruptors.
- Community benefits: We ethically source our raw ingredients via our incredible partner Givaudan. From the vetiver grown in Haiti to the Jasmine grown in India, the livelihood of these communities is dependent on the farming practices of these plants as they have done for centuries. A fully synthetic world of lab made ingredients will deplete these communities from income and likely deplete the world of the abundance of botanicals grown and harvested.
Tulita Fragrances do not contain the chemical binding agents that are typically used in standard fragrances to ensure they last all day or all night. These toxins are not only harmful for your health as they are known carcinogens and linked to endocrine (hormone) disruption which can be especially harmful for pregnant and breastfeeding women.
These toxins are also harmful for the environment as by being long lasting and non-biodegradable, they cause harmful impacts when washed from your skin into waterways, as the chemical compounds do not breakdown, even in water.
Our fragrances have been crafted the natural artisanal way of layering structured base notes throughout to extend the wear time, harnessing the power of the botanicals and will typically last 2-5 hours.
Vikasa is a lighter more delicate fragrance and will last 2-4 hours.
We encourage you to re-apply Tulita throughout the day, each time making this a mindful moment coming back to the affirmation of each Chakra energy.
- Dry skin will not hold a fragrance as long, moisturise first with unscented moisturiser before applying fragrance. Well hydrated skin can hold your fragrance up to 30% longer.
- Apply to non-pulse point areas such as back of the neck, back of the knees, in your hair. Pulse points (such as wrists and neck) create warmth for the fragrance to accelerate the break down process of the natural botanicals.
- Avoid rubbing your wrists together if you apply to this pulse point. It affectively “crushes” the delicate top notes such as light florals and citruses and changes the profile of the fragrance.
- Apply to the collar of clothing as the fragrance will bind better to fabrics and natural fibres.
Once you open your Tulita bottle, it will last for about 2 years. After a few years the fragrance will start to change profile as the lighter top notes will start to fade away, it is still perfectly safe to continue to use but you will notice that it will smell differently to when you first bought it.
To ensure your fragrance lasts as long as possible, keep the bottle out of direct sunlight as UV rays also damage the delicate top notes and may cause the fragrance to change colour which is very normal given the ingredients are all
natural and not synthetic.
The ethanol in Agati and Divya fragrance is non GMO, organic sugar cane alcohol grown here in Australia.
We have opted for a non organic, (but still 100% natural) wheat ethanol for our Vikasa fragrance as it is better suited to the delicate fragrance.
Yes we are cruelty free and will never test on animals.

PACKAGING & SUSTAINABILITY
Blue beauty is the next frontier beyond clean and green beauty - which have no universal criteria and are very subjective to different interpretations. Blue beauty has a rigorous and clearly defined agenda which commits brands to consider ocean and water life as well as land impacts. At Tulita we are committed to them all:
- Natural, non GMO and predominantly organic ingredients
- Biodegradable formulations
- Plastic Neutral
- FSC, Upcycled and Reusable packaging
- Work with Farmers and suppliers
- Certified Carbon Neutral
- Sourcing Transparency
- Recycling and Returns program
- Green Technology
- Give back
- B-Corp Certified
Read more on the Tulita commitment to each of these criteria on our Sustainability page.
Plastic neutral companies are at the forefront of tackling the plastic crisis.
350 million tonnes of plastic is produced every year and only 10% of it is recycled.
Plastic neutral companies measure, reduce and offset their plastic usage,
for every kilogram of plastic used by a company, the company pays for one
kilogram to be collected or recycled on their behalf, that wouldn’t otherwise be. Reducing the plastic that would have ended up in landfill or waterways that have devastating impacts on our animals, people and planet.
At Tulita we have worked to reduce the plastic from all of our packaging which is now only down to the small dip tube inside the fragrance bottle and tops of our 2ml samples. We are working to reduce this even further in the future.
In an Australian first, we have also gone further than plastic neutral, opting for plastic negative certification means we are removing 2 kilograms of plastic for every 1 kilogram of plastic we use or x2 our impact.
- Plastic neutral: 1 kilogram is collected and recycled (that otherwise would not have been) for every 1 kilogram the company uses
- Plastic negative: 2 kilograms are collected and recycled (that otherwise would not have been) for every 1 kilogram that company uses.
This is very rare today to see this level of commitment, but we believe this is the responsibility of all modern companies and we are proud to be pioneers in this category as the first Australian plastic negative certified fragrance.
