Perfume Room is a bespoke fragrance house that creates unique and personal scents for each client. Our perfumes are made with the finest ingredients, and we use a traditional blending process to create complex and long-lasting fragrances.
Perfume room does not guarantee that a IBO will achieve financial success without working or by relying solely on the efforts of others. One has to ensure that a minimum of 250 BV is accumulated by purchasing groceries of choice within a calendar month.
The fundamental purpose is to build a solid foundation within communities, promote social cohesion and practically eradicate poverty within the African continent. Enhance the spirit of Ubuntu (Humanity) to ensure that an African child does not go to bed with an empty stomach and has the buying power to sustain an African economy.
