e.l.f. Brands is expanding destination-inspired fragrances with e.l.f. POP, a new fragrance and body care collection designed around sensorial interpretations of global locations. The concept debuts with Tromsø, a limited-edition holiday collection inspired by the Norwegian destination. Its Spicy Bundt Nice scent combines notes of holiday spice cake, orange zest, cardamom, buttercream frosting, cedarwood and warm musk across a $13 fragrance mist, $13 body cream and $12 travel kit. Norwegian artists Esra Røise and SKAAR contribute visual and musical elements to the launch.
The collection allows e.l.f. to extend its accessible beauty positioning into the growing fragrance and body care categories. Destination-based releases also provide a repeatable framework for seasonal drops and collectible scents. With additional locations arriving in January 2027, e.l.f. can encourage repeat purchases while reaching consumers beyond its core cosmetics portfolio.
