Miss Saigon, the famous perfume brand name of Saigon Cosmetics Corporation (SCC), has won the hearts of customers both at home and abroad for many years. The corporation’s product which has the container in the shape of a Vietnamese lady wearing a traditional Ao dai and a conical leaf hat has a faint and sexy fragrance.
Saigon Cosmetics Corporation was formerly the Imortel Perfume Company which was present in Saigon prior to 1975.

Until 1999, the factory was privatised and kept the present name. Over the years, the company has developed and become the leading cosmetics, perfume and detergent manufacturer in Vietnam.
With a hope of highlighting the beauty of the Vietnamese women, SCC’s leaders nurtured an idea of creating a distinctive scent of Vietnam which is easily distinguished from others. After many years conducting research on the perfume manufacturing sector of developed countries and some of the world’s famous perfume brand names such as Chanel and Lancome, SCC created a type of perfume brand named Miss Saigon which is famous in Vietnam for its delicate feminine, sweet and light scent. To make the product unique, the company also cooperates with Minh Long Ceramics Company to design three types of bottle of perfume in the shape of a northern delta girl wearing a four-flap dress and a flat conical leaf hat embellished with a red ribbon, a girl in the Central region wearing a traditional Ao dai with a scarf on her head and a girl in the South wearing a traditional Ao dai and a leaf hat.
