Our Story

At House of Sugandha, our journey has been anything but ordinary. It began when we, Dilip and Gauri, left the comfort of our IT careers in multinational companies to follow a deeper calling — one rooted in purpose, not just paychecks. In 2008, we started our first venture, Yuvalakshya, an NGO dedicated to teaching coding skills to the youth of Konkan. It was our way of giving back, of sparking futures. Driven by the same spirit, we later launched a software company. But the lack of infrastructure in our hometown brought tough lessons, and ultimately, we had to close that chapter. Still undeterred, we explored other passions — first photography, capturing life’s beautiful moments, and then the vibrant world of Paithani clothing, celebrating timeless tradition. Yet, something was always calling us home — to the land, the soil, the roots of our being. And so, we returned to Konkan — but this time, with a new vision: to blend agriculture with innovation. House of Sugandha was born, not just as a brand, but as a mission — to create pure, handmade products inspired by our land’s ancient wisdom and crafted with modern care. Every bottle, every bar, every drop carries not just the essence of Konkan, but the story of resilience, dreams, and the unwavering belief that nature heals all. Welcome to our journey. Welcome to House of Sugandha.
