About

‘Ôrəbella, founded by Bella Hadid, is a trailblazing beauty brand ushering in a new era of intentional fragrance. Unlike traditional perfumes, ‘Ôrəbella’s alcohol-free, bi-phase parfums are enriched with skin nourishing ingredients and essential oils, designed not only to linger on the skin but to hydrate and elevate the aura of the wearer. Clean, sensorial, and skin-first, ‘Ôrəbella stands at the intersection of beauty and well-being, championing inclusive self-expression through scent.

Challenges

  • Educating consumers on a revolutionary product concept
  • Building social proof at scale to support retail and DTC performance
  • Generating cost-effective, authentic UGC that reflects the brand’s inclusive, elevated ethos

 

As a disruptive new entrant in the fine fragrance category, ‘Ôrəbella faced a unique set of challenges at launch. With a product that defied convention due to the alcohol-free, bi-phase shake to activate, and hydrating parfums, the brand needed to educate consumers on both its benefits and its usage. Fragrance, being a deeply sensory product, posed an additional barrier: shoppers couldn’t “smell before they buy,” making authentic reviews and peer validation crucial to driving trial and trust.

 

At the same time, as a new brand, ‘Ôrəbella needed to build brand awareness, social proof, and content volume at scale all while being resource efficient. Generating high-quality, creator-led content across platforms like TikTok where virality is unpredictable, and consumer behavior rapidly evolves was particularly challenging. ‘Ôrəbella needed a partner that could not only help drive visibility but also do so in a way that aligned with their monthly marketing rhythms, supported content repurposing, and helped showcase the brand’s inclusive, aura-elevating identity.

“As a new brand in the fragrance space, one of our biggest challenges was helping consumers understand what makes ‘Ôrəbella different. We needed real voices, authentic reviews and relatable content to communicate our bi-phase formula, how it feels on the skin, and what our scents actually smell like. That’s where Skeepers made an immediate impact.”
