Top 5 UX Wins
To elevate The Fragrance Shop app and align it with a premium, user-first digital experience, I implemented a series of targeted UX and UI enhancements across the journey. These improvements were shaped by CRO principles, guided by user behaviour frameworks (AIDA, RACE, SOSTAC), and prioritised using the RICE scoring model. Below is a summary of five of the most impactful changes.

01
A Modern, Immersive First-Time Experience
What changed:
I introduced a premium, video-driven onboarding flow that sets the tone for the entire app and immediately communicates value.
Why it matters:
Creates a strong first impression, explains the brand proposition clearly, and reduces onboarding confusion for both guests and new members.

02
A Simplified, User-Centred Navigation Architecture
What changed:
Navigation was redesigned to prioritise search, clearer categories, and fast routes to high-intent areas like membership and basket.
Why it matters:
Improves product discovery, reduces cognitive load, and enables users to browse with less friction.

03
A Personalised Membership Ecosystem That Drives Engagement
What changed:
The membership experience was rebuilt from the ground up with a dynamic hub, integrated perks, savings tracker, and contextual guidance.
Why it matters:
Transforms membership into a value-driven journey that increases retention and highlights user-specific benefits instantly.

04
A More Intelligent Shopping Journey Across PLP & PDP
What changed:
Both the product listing and product display pages were redesigned to surface more relevant information, clear CTAs, gifting options, and fragrance discovery tools.
Why it matters:
Helps users make faster, more confident decisions improving conversion and reducing drop-offs at critical touchpoints.

05
A Seamless Checkout & Purchase Completion Experience
What changed:
The basket and confirmation flow were reimagined with smarter product suggestions, streamlined voucher application for members, and a premium animated purchase confirmation.
Why it matters:
Reduces abandoned baskets, boosts order value, and ends the shopping experience on a polished, memorable note.
