Niche Perfumes can Direct flights to China, Tmall Global launched the first “perfume route”

Since perfume contains flammable substances such as alcohol, it has been banned from air transportation by many European countries. Imported perfumes are mainly imported by sea through bulk purchases. However, the more personalized and customized “niche fragrances”, the less they will be able to produce single products on a large scale, and they will not have the conditions for mass transportation.

On December 23, Tmall Global and Cainiao officially opened the first cross-border direct mail “perfume route” between China and Europe. During the New Year period, European perfumes were sent directly to China every day.

The opening of the China-Europe perfume route not only enriches the previous single mode of importing perfume mainly by sea shipping, but also provides a more convenient cross-border logistics solution for the increasingly popular “niche perfume” entering China.

Tmall Global and Cainiao set up direct mail perfume routes in the Netherlands and Germany.

Different from the Big brands’ “commercial fragrances”, the personalized “niche fragrances” are being favored by the younger generation of consumers in China. 

“2020 China Perfume Research White Paper” shows that in terms of perfume consumption, young consumers under the age of 30 are diminishing their pursuit of big brands. They resist “the same scenting” and are unwilling to use perfume to please others. They are keen on pursuing woody scent, oceans scents and other refreshing and personalized “niche fragrance”.

Beginning in September this year, Tmall Global’s overseas direct purchases have joined with Cainiao, established overseas direct purchase warehouses in Europe, developed special packaging to solve the safety problem of small-volume perfume air transportation, and piloted the first cross-border direct mail “perfume route” in Germany. “.

On the eve of Xmas, this route was officially put into use and expanded to the Netherlands and Germany for direct flights, allowing European perfumes to be sent directly to China every day.

Tmall Global’s German overseas direct purchase warehouses.

On the Tmall Global platform, the consumption of Niche Perfumes is gaining momentum and its been doubled in 2020. Euromonitor, a global market consulting company, also predicts that the mass perfume market will fall by 15% in 2020, while the niche handmade perfume and high-end perfume market will grow by 18%.

At present, a batch of “niche fragrances” such as Le Labo Santal 33, Serge Lutens La Fille de Berlin

, Rose Of No Man’s Land,Maison Martin Margiela Lazy Sunday Morning and Penhaligon’s The Coveted Duchess Rose have all entered European direct purchase on Tmall. Warehouse.

“Some niche perfumes have only a dozen or a few dozen pieces in inventory, and they are too small to scale. Consumers can also buy online.” According to the relevant person in charge of Tmall Global，consumers can place an order within three days. Received direct goods from Europe.

The agreement is known as EU-China Comprehensive Agreement on Investment (CAI), it is expected to enable European companies to better enter the Chinese market and improve competition conditions by opening market and eliminating discriminatory laws and practices.

And also to help EU companies competing in the Chinese market on an equal basis with Chinese companies and companies from other third countries.

Finally, it still needs to wait for the approval of the European Parliament to take effect.

The cumulative EU foreign direct investment (FDI) flows from the EU to China over the last 20 years have reached more than €140 billion. For Chinese FDI into the EU the figure is almost €120 billion. EU FDI in China remains relatively modest with respect to the size and the potential of the Chinese economy.

As regards investment, the EU-China Comprehensive Agreement on Investment (CAI) will be the most ambitious agreement that China has ever concluded with a third country. In addition to rules against the forced transfer of technologies, CAI will also be the first agreement to deliver on obligations for the behavior of state-owned enterprises, comprehensive transparency rules for subsidies and commitments related to sustainable development.

The CAI will ensure that EU investors achieve better access to a fast growing 1.4 billion consumer market, and that they compete on a better level playing field in China. This is important for the global competitiveness and the future growth of EU industry.

Ambitious opening by China to European investments

Firstly, the CAI binds China’s liberalisation of investments over the last 20 years and, in that way, it prevents backsliding. This makes the conditions of market access for EU companies clear and independent of China’s internal policies. It also allows the EU to resort to the dispute resolution mechanism in CAI in case of breach of commitments.

In addition, the EU has negotiated further and new market access openings and commitments such as the elimination of quantitative restrictions, equity caps or joint venture requirements in a number of sectors. These are restrictions that severely hamper the activities of our companies in China. The overall package is far more ambitious than what China has committed to before.

On the EU side, the market is already open and largely committed for services sectors under the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS). EU sensitivities, such as in the field of energy, agriculture, fisheries, audio-visual, public services, etc. are all preserved in CAI.

Examples of market access commitments by China:

  • Manufacturing: China has made comprehensive commitments with only very limited exclusions (in particular, in sectors with significant overcapacity). In terms of the level of ambition, this would match the EU’s openness. Roughly half of EU FDI is in the manufacturing sector (e.g. transport and telecommunication equipment, chemicals, health equipment etc.). China has not made such far-reaching market access commitments with any other partner.
  • Automotive sector: China has agreed to remove and phase out joint venture requirements. China will commit market access for new energy vehicles.
  • Financial services: China had already started the process of gradually liberalising the financial services sector and will grant and commit to keep that opening to EU investors. Joint venture requirements and foreign equity caps have been removed for banking, trading in securities and insurance (including reinsurance), as well as asset management.
  • Health (private hospitals): China will offer new market opening by lifting joint venture requirements for private hospitals in key Chinese cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjian, Guangzhou and Shenzhen .
  • R&D (biological resources): China has not previously committed openness to foreign investment in R&D in biological resources. China has agreed not to introduce new restrictions and to give to the EU any lifting of current restrictions in this area that may happen in the future.
  • Telecommunication/Cloud services: China has agreed to lift the investment ban for cloud services. They will now be open to EU investors subject to a 50% equity cap.
  • Computer services: China has agreed to bind market access for computer services – a significant improvement from the current situation. Also, China will include a ‘technology neutrality’ clause, which would ensure that equity caps imposed for value-added telecom services will not be applied to other services such as financial, logistics, medical etc. if offered online.
  • International maritime transport: China will allow investment in the relevant land-based auxiliary activities, enabling EU companies to invest without restriction in cargo-handling, container depots and stations, maritime agencies, etc. This will allow EU companies to organise a full range of multi-modal door-to-door transport, including the domestic leg of international maritime transport.
  • Air transport-related services: While the CAI does not address traffic rights because they are subject to separate aviation agreements, China will open up in the key areas of computer reservation systems, ground handling and selling and marketing services. China has also removed its minimum capital requirement for rental and leasing of aircraft without crew, going beyond GATS.
  • Business services: China will eliminate joint venture requirements in real estate services, rental and leasing services, repair and maintenance for transport, advertising, market research, management consulting and translation services, etc.
  • Environmental services: China will remove joint venture requirements in environmental services such as sewage, noise abatement, solid waste disposal, cleaning of exhaust gases, nature and landscape protection, sanitations and other environmental services.  
  • Construction services: China will eliminate the project limitations currently reserved in their GATS commitments.
  • Employees of EU investors: Managers and specialists of EU companies will be allowed to work up to three years in Chinese subsidiaries, without restrictions such as labour market tests or quotas. Representatives of EU investors will be allowed to visit freely prior to making an investment.

Improving level playing field – making investment fairer

  • State owned enterprises (SOEs) – Chinese SOEs contribute to around 30 percent of the country’s GDP. CAI seeks to discipline the behaviour of SOEs by requiring them to act in accordance with commercial considerations and not to discriminate in their purchases and sales of goods or services. Importantly, China also undertakes the obligation to provide, upon request, specific information to allow for the assessment of whether the behaviour of a specific enterprise complies with the agreed the CAI obligations. If the problem goes unresolved, we can resort to dispute resolution under the CAI.
  • Transparency in subsidies – The CAI fills one important gap in the WTO rulebook by imposing transparency obligations on subsidies in the services sectors. Also, the CAI obliges China to engage in consultations in order to provide additional information on subsidies that could have a negative effect on the investment interests of the EU. China is also obliged to engage in consultations with a view to seek to address such negative effects.
  • Forced technology transfers – The CAI lays very clear rules against the forced transfer of technology. The provisions consist of the prohibition of several types of investment requirements that compel transfer of technology, such as requirements to transfer technology to a joint venture partner, as well as prohibitions to interfere in contractual freedom in technology licencing. These rules would also include disciplines on the protection of confidential business information collected by administrative bodies (for instance in the process of certification of a good or a service) from unauthorised disclosure. The agreed rules significantly enhance the disciplines in WTO.
  • Standard setting, authorisations, transparency – This agreement covers other long-standing EU industry requests. China will provide equal access to standard setting bodies for our companies. China will also enhance transparency, predictability and fairness in authorisations. The CAI will include transparency rules for regulatory and administrative measures to enhance legal certainty and predictability, as well as for procedural fairness and the right to judicial review, including in competition cases.

Embedding sustainable development in our investment relationship

  • In contrast to other agreements concluded by China, the CAI binds the parties into a value-based investment relationship grounded on sustainable development principles. The relevant provisions are subject to a specifically tailored implementation mechanism to address differences with a high degree of transparency and participation of civil society.
  • China commits, in the areas of labour and environment, not to lower the standards of protection in order to attract investment, not to use labour and environment standards for protectionist purposes, as well as to respect its international obligations in the relevant treaties. China will support the uptake of corporate social responsibility by its companies.
  • Importantly, the CAI also includes commitments on environment and climate, including to effectively implement the Paris Agreement on climate.
  • China also commits to working towards the ratification of the outstanding ILO (International Labour Organisation) fundamental Conventions and takes specific commitments in relation to the two ILO fundamental Conventions on forced labour that it has not ratified yet.

Monitoring of implementation and dispute settlement

  • In the CAI, China agrees to an enforcement mechanism (state-to-state dispute settlement), as in our trade agreements.
  • This will be coupled with a monitoring mechanism at pre-litigation phase established at political level, which will allow us to raise problems as they arise (including via an urgency procedure).

CND relax Hemp control, Does the opportunity for cannabis cosmetics in China has come?

CND relax Hemp control, Does the opportunity for cannabis cosmetics in China has come?

Further Reading：Cannabidiol (CBD) Cosmetics in China: Regulation and Market Analysis

Hemp leaf or CBD cosmetics have become one of the most popular “emerging words” in the cosmetics industry. However, while companies and capital are eager for hemp cosmetics, Chinese consumers are barely talking about “hemp” related products and ideas since hemp is illegal in China. The huge contrast in the cannabis cosmetics market undoubtedly makes it the most unique type of cosmetics in China markets.

International cannabis control relaxation

On December 2, at the 63rd session of the Commission on Narcotic Drugs (CND) held in Vienna, CND passed theWorld Health Organization (WHO) Recommendation 5.1 with 27 votes in favor, 1 abstention, and 25 votes against. It shall delete cannabis and cannabis resin from table 4 of the Single Convention on Narcotics Drugs in 1961, and list it to Table 1.

This CND resolution means that the medical effect of cannabis has been recognized from the perspective of international law. However, it is worth noting that CND also rejected the remaining 5 recommendations in the WHO’s cannabis regulation recommendation letter. This shows that although the level of control of cannabis has been lowered, it does not mean “unleash”. It still belongs to the category of strong supervision system. Holding the bottom line firmly and developing under the scope of laws and regulations is the right way for the industrial hemp industry.

▍WHO cannabis regulatory adjustment recommendation letter

With the careful relaxation of relevant policies in some regions of the world and China, the prospects for the application of industrial hemp in the future are showing promise. Since 2010, Yunnan Province in China has issued relevant local regulations to legalize the cultivation and deep processing of industrial hemp. Subsequently, Heilongjiang followed up and issued the “Heilongjiang version” of industrial hemp-related regulations. On September 16, 2020, Kunming formally introduced the “8 articles of Hemps” to support the local industrial hemp industry.

While industrial hemp CBD skincare products are constantly being “justified”, more and more consumers realize that hemp leaf extract, a deep-processed product of industrial hemp, is a high-end skincare activity ingredient. However, as of now, cannabidiol CBD ingredients are not allowed to be used in China yet. Only limited hemp leaf extract cosmetics ingredients can be used in China cosmetics. The “ Inventory of Existing Cosmetic Ingredients in China (IECIC 2015) ” was released by the China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA) clearly includes the following Cannabis ingredients.

Chinese Name INCI/English Name
大麻（CANNABIS SATIVA）仁果 CANNABIS SATIVA FRUIT
大麻（CANNABIS SATIVA）叶提取物 CANNABIS SATIVA LEAF EXTRACT
大麻（CANNABIS SATIVA）籽油 CANNABIS SATIVA SEED OIL

Domestic Professional Science Support

In fact, in the field of industrial hemp cosmetics CBD application research and the transformation of research results, there are also China domestic teams focused on this. As the earliest professional scientific research team of domestic cannabis cosmetics, from Guangzhou Zunyi Cosmetics Co., Ltd. has been involved in the research of cannabis cosmetics for more than three years, in order to help the public understand cannabis cosmetics comprehensively and dialectically, Guangzhou Zunyi has been unremittingly sharing the scientific concept of industrial hemp to the public. It already published articles such as:

  1. “The status quo of industrial hemp regulations and its development and application in cosmetics”
  2. “Epikutis Model Alternative Method Studying the Anti-inflammatory and Repairing Effects of Hemp Leaf Extract”
  3. “Preliminary Study on the Current Status and Development of the Hemp Cosmetics Market in ingredients concern consumers in China”

The Markets

Under the infection of the global virus pandemic, the skin sensitivity problem of “mask face” is attracting public attention. According to the data, 83% of consumers wear masks for too long and cause a series of skin problems. At the same time, “sensitive skin” has also become the focus of discussion among female consumers. According to the “Consensus of Experts on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Sensitive Skin in China”, the incidence of sensitive skin in Chinese women is about 36%. According to iResearch, over 60% of users of sensitive skin after paying attention to their own skin problems, they will insist on using anti-allergic skin care products during the cycle.

Wearing a mask for a long time, especially a mask with good sealing performance, will easily cause pressure on the facial skin, forming indentation, purpura, and even friction blisters. Besides, the local humid and hot environment under the mask can cause acne, allergies, enlarged pores, and facial skin. Skin problems such as uneven color patches are prominent, and people with sensitive skin even experience varying degrees of skin discomfort. This has become the most urgent problem that deeply plagues consumers.

As many studies and evidence shows Hemp CBD cosmetics can indeed solve the above problems through unique soothing and repairing, acne-removing, and anti-inflammatory effects, and become a “savior” for “mask face” and sensitive skin.

On the other hand, more and more major cosmetics brands in China are rapidly deploying functional skincare products, and many niche brands and cutting-edge brands are also opening up the market with functional skincare as their entry point. Numerous signs indicate that functional skincare is becoming another focus of the cosmetics market.

According to industry insiders, the output value of China’s hemp cosmetics will be about 1 billion RMB in 2020. With the continuous deepening of domestic hemp cosmetics science education and the rapid growth of the industry, professional consulting agencies estimate that the annual output value of domestic hemp cosmetics will reach 1.2 billion, 2 billion, and 3.5 billion RMB respectively in 2021-2023.
