packagings from the past century, Confiança can
bring back to life the “chic”, the colours and the
sensuality of the good old days.
The Confiança history
The Confiança firm was founded on October 12th,
1894 for the making of Offenbach soaps (the first
manufactured soaps) and perfumes. A wood-fired
boiler, moulds, utensils and furniture for a modest
office were purchased as well as raw materials
necessary for the project and experiments. Thus
began taking shape the Saboaria e Perfumeria
Confiança S.A, being nowadays one of the most
credible and biggest factories of its kind.
Around 1898, with the augmentation of capital,
the making of soap was improved, the first
samples of soaps were presented and several
kinds of perfume were created. By the end of the
1940’s, Confiança developed important businesses
with the allies of Portugal, obtaining important
technological improvements. By then, the firm
had already 150 different types of soap and a
great variety of skin powders, cream, toothpaste,
eau de cologne,
