Welcome to My World
I'm Willem Derks — and I’m glad you’re here.
This space is more than just a business; it’s the result of resilience, grit, and an unexpected journey that began in 2013. Back then, I had just lost my job in the printing industry and was simply trying to keep things afloat. With just 7 fragrances and 50 bottles, I started selling perfumes to make ends meet. What began as a necessity slowly grew into a full-blown passion — and today, it’s a business I’m proud of, offering over 200 unique fragrances, custom formulations, raw materials, skincare, diffusers, and private label perfume solutions.
But numbers only tell part of the story.
My real edge? Honesty, transparency, and a no-nonsense attitude.
I don’t sugar-coat things, and I don’t see myself as just a supplier — I’m a partner in your brand. If something isn’t working, I’ll tell you. If you’re making a mess of your product strategy, I’ll let you know (with a little tough love). Because I believe your success is my success, and I’d rather help you build a sustainable, smart business than just push sales.
I’ve walked this road from scratch. I’ve made mistakes, tested, learned, and grown. That’s why I understand the hustle, the late nights, and the courage it takes to start — and keep going. Whether you're building a perfume brand from zero, expanding into skincare, or searching for your signature scent, I’m here to help — with knowledge, experience, and complete transparency.
This isn’t just a business to me. It’s a craft, a service, and a commitment.
It’s about helping you create products you’re proud to sell — and building brands that last.
Thanks for being here.
Whether you're just browsing, curious about private label, or already working with me — I hope this space gives you insight, value, and maybe even the courage to keep building something great.
