Silver Radiance™ programme – Supporting seniors’ wellbeing through fragrance

Givaudan, a global leader in fragrance and beauty, announces today the launch of its innovative and holistic Silver Radiance™ programme, exclusively focusing on the silver generation.

In a context of a growing ageing population, Givaudan has deepened its understanding of the needs of the over-55s through consumer research with data collected from more than 7,000 seniors in 11 countries around the world.

Givaudan has a proven expertise in the study of wellbeing since the 1970s, including a focus on seniors’ needs initiated almost ten years ago. The aim of the Silver Radiance™ programme is to help improve the quality of living while ageing, through emotional, behavioural and physical benefits. The first step of this programme is crystallised today through the Silver Radiance™ solutions, bringing concrete tailored innovations to this population, from better sleep to higher energy levels.

Following the mission of developing healthy-ageing solutions, Givaudan has validated a unique portfolio of technologies and active ingredients aimed to improve seniors’ wellbeing, including:

Sleep: DreamScentz™

Studies show that poor sleep quality is one of the factors that has a major impact on the silver generation’s wellbeing. We have shown that DreamScentz™ can help seniors have better quality of sleep and help them wake up feeling more refreshed.
