Notino was founded in 2004 by Michal Zámec in Brno, Czech Republic, with a clear vision: to make premium beauty products accessible to everyone across Europe. Zámec identified a gap in the market for an online fragrance retailer at a time when e-commerce was still in its infancy, and the company quickly grew from a specialist perfume e-shop into a full-service beauty retailer. Deloitte recognised Notino as one of the 50 fastest-growing technology companies in Central and Eastern Europe for three consecutive years.
Today Notino is Europe's largest online beauty and fragrance retailer, operating in 28 countries and serving over 20 million customers. The company is headquartered in Brno and operates a highly automated distribution centre capable of dispatching up to 180,000 packages per day. In 2023 Notino recorded a turnover of over €1 billion. As well as its online stores, Notino has expanded into a chain of physical beauty boutiques across Central and Eastern Europe. The company prides itself on stocking only authentic, genuine products from over 1,500 official brand partners.

Notino offers a 90-day returns guarantee on unused and unopened products — one of the most generous in the beauty retail sector. Returns within 14 days are free of charge.

Yes. Notino stocks only authentic, genuine products sourced directly from official brand distributors. The company sells over 55,000 products from more than 1,500 brands and is an authorised retailer for all brands it carries. This is a commonly asked question as Notino's prices are frequently lower than high street RRP due to the company's purchasing scale and low operating costs as primarily an online retailer.
