THE TRAJECTORY
A loyal following off Amazon, and no presence on it
Klone Scents makes designer-inspired colognes and perfumes for men and women at a fraction of luxury prices, each built to last all day. The brand had already grown a loyal customer base through its own website, but it had never sold on Amazon. In July 2025 there were no listings, no sales history and no reviews.
Starting from zero
No listings, no sales history and no reviews. Every part of the Amazon presence had to be built before a single sale could happen.
A crowded category
Fragrance on Amazon is packed with designer houses and other inspired-by brands. A new listing has to earn visibility against sellers with years of reviews behind them.
Selling scent through a screen
Shoppers cannot smell a fragrance online, so the listings had to carry notes, longevity and value on their own. The launch also landed months before Q4, the biggest gifting window in the category.
THE STARTING POINT
Build it from nothing, then scale into Q4
Launch and catalog setup
Created every product listing from scratch, with a clean parent-child structure
Set up the catalog so each fragrance indexes in the right category
Built the range across scents and sizes before the first ad ran
01 · CATALOG
SEO, creative and brand content

02 · SEO AND CREATIVE
PPC restructure and global scale
Launched campaigns to build early sales and rank on high-intent fragrance searches
Scaled budgets into November and December to capture holiday gifting demand
Cut ad dependence after the holidays as organic rank took over the sales
03 · STRUCTURED ADS

I am extremely impressed and satisfied with the work Umar has done for me. His communication, research ability, technical knowledge and problem solving skills are excellent. He was also very professional and patient while dealing with matters. Great value for money. Highly recommended.
