European leader in fragrances
The leading company in the Spanish perfumery market and the first company to introduce fashion branding into the world of perfumes.

With its own style and culture, the brand has a personality, a creative dimension and a philosophy towards innovation that is preserved and reinforced by its parent company – Puig Group. Founded in 1916 by the Catalan sculptor, Esteban Monegal Prat, Myrurgia has always reflected artistic passion in its carefully produced products. Bohemia glass bottles, exquisite presentations and endless attention to detail have made its products a resounding success.

Myrurgia focuses on the perfumery, cosmetics and personal care sector. Its traditional colognes 1916 and Maja are of particular importance, as is Lactovit – its personal hygiene product range. It also markets branded fragrances linked to the world of fashion such as Adolfo Domínguez, Massimo Dutti and Don Algodón.

Its products are top-sellers in over 70 countries. It has focussed its efforts on the Spanish market and in Latin America, particularly Mexico, where its fragrances are market leaders.

In 1996 Myrurgia entered the selective cosmetics market after buying the Payot Laboratories in Paris, founded in 1927.

When the company joined the Puig Beauty & Fashion Group in 2000, its international standing was considerably strengthened. Today the group has 40 subsidiaries in 25 countries, ten perfume and cosmetics production centres, and three fashion design centres.

EVENTS
AMRE analyses the impact of the Spanish football team’s victory on the Spain Brand
As a result of the Spanish national football team’s recent victory in the South Africa World Cup, the Leading Brands of Spain Association has analysed the impact of this success on Spain’s image abroad. This project was led by AMRE’s Managing Director and covered by various media. On Saturday 17 July, the business daily Expansión published an opinion article by Miguel Otero entitled ‘The Spain Brand and the Reds: a perspective from China’. This article analysed the repercussion of the world cup victory in the strategic market of China and the need for the government and brands to harness the potential for promoting their image as a result of an event of such importance. He suggested this should be achieved through an image plan that brings together the work of different bodies to promote Spain’s image.
