Media Kit

Who we are, what we cover, and how to get in touch.

About

Independent. No brand deals. No soft-pedalling.

Ombré Co. covers watches and fragrances. We launched in 2025 because we got tired of coverage that existed mainly to keep brands happy.

No affiliate links. No sponsored content. No reviews softened by the fact that we need the same company to send us something next month. Every opinion belongs to the writer.

We write for the person who just started paying attention and the one who's been at it long enough to have strong opinions about case finishing. Different questions, same level of honesty.

What We Publish

Content Pillars

Watch Reviews

We cover references across all price points and say plainly what's worth your money.

Fragrance Reviews

Multiple wearings, full development. No press sheet summaries, no inflated praise. We tell you when something works and when it doesn't.

Watch History

The brands, the people, the decisions that shaped watchmaking. Context that makes the watches more interesting — not just collector trivia.

Buyer's Guides

For people making real purchasing decisions. Not aspirational roundups full of watches nobody can actually buy.

Partnerships

What We're Looking For

Watches

Review loans — typically two to four weeks. Returned in the condition it arrived. We won't commit to a positive review in advance. Good watches get good reviews. That's the deal.

We're particularly interested in independent manufacturers, new references with a story, and pieces that reward closer attention.

Fragrances

Samples for review consideration. We wear everything we review — multiple wearings, full development, written from actual experience rather than a press brief.

We cover houses at all price points. The quality of the work matters more than the size of the brand.

What you get

A full editorial piece — typically 600–1,200 words — published on Ombré Co. with a permanent URL. No pre-approval. No guaranteed sentiment. An honest take from someone who cares about the subject, written for a reader who does too.

Contact

For review loan requests, sample inquiries, or press questions — email directly. We aim to respond within 48 hours.

Small, independent operation. You'll be talking to the person who actually writes and publishes the work.
