How it started...

Scentish was founded on April 2018 by Nicola McLoughlin one rainy evening in her living room, and from there it has grown stronger every day, the company was born, originally known as 'The Soap Shack'.

The whole team is quite down to earth, chilled, a bit silly Northerners from a small town in Lancashire, so the original plan was simply for Nicola to have a small business she ran on her own, to make a modest living from. Nothing too fancy. It didn't turn out that way...

Home becomes a factory...

Nicola's home became a factory, and every spare inch of space was taken up by products, and with the help of Nicola's Nan, worked all day and night to fulfil orders with fresh, handmade cosmetics.

Finally outgrowing our home, we moved in to our first shop and opened on January 25th, 2021.

How we grew...

2 months after we opened our first shop, Covid Lockdowns hit, and like many businesses, we had to close our shutters, and Nicola thought that was the end of her business.

But, we were lucky, very lucky, that during this period we grew rapidly, and a few months later, we took on our first employee. By the end of that year, we had 6 employees.

But we'd outgrown our little shop, so we moved into a 3,000 square foot factory, and moved to a bigger shop.

Moving forward...

February 2022, we'd just moved in to our new factory and shop, our wholesale side had also grown and we were now making products for other large brands. We rebranded as Scentish, and plans were in the works to change our look.

And that was it for Nicola, finally after a lot of hard work and determination the business went from strength to strength. Both on the retail and wholesale side, we've worked with some incredible people and business's.

The future...

Overcoming a few years of setbacks, our plan is now in place, this new website, new branding, new products and expansion in to Europe.

Nicola is still at the head of the business, designing and creating all the new products, still very much leading from the front like the early days. But just with a few more tasks and challenges as per usual! Our team has grown a little more, you can meet them below, and we've expanded our factory some more.

We're still only a few months in to our big expansion plan as we write this, so I guess you'll have to check back with us in another year to find out how it's going, but it's been an exciting journey so far, and it's all down to you guys keeping us busy, so from the bottom of our hearts...

Thank You sooo much 🫶
