Amendment No. 6 to Draft Registration Statement on Form F-1, submitted May 1, 2023
Prospectus Summary
Who We Are, page 1
1.We note your response to prior comment 2 and re-issue in part. Please revise the
Prospectus Summary, where appropriate, to disclose SpoiledChild's revenues for the year
ended December 31, 2022.
2.Your disclosure on page 119 indicates that the acquisition of Revela has not yet closed.
However, disclosure throughout the prospectus appears to assume that the acquisition has
closed. For example, we note your statement on page 7 that you are incorporating
Revela's molecules into your current and future brands and your disclosure on page 119

identifies Revela's products ProCelinyl and Fibroquin as owned by ODDITY LABS.
Please tell us why it is appropriate for you to prominently discuss Revela's business and
its integration with your business, including the establishment of ODDITY LABS, if the
acquisition has not been consummated. To the extent the acquisition has closed, please
revise the prospectus, where appropriate, to describe the material terms of the acquisition
and file the definitive agreement as an exhibit to your registration statement.
3.We note your disclosure on page 1 that you "established ODDITY LABS to bring
artificial intelligence-based molecule discovery for the development of science-backed,
highly efficacious beauty and wellness products." Please revise this disclosure here and
elsewhere to clarify, if true, that the products you currently offer are not drugs, biological
products, or devices that have been determined by the FDA or similar foreign regulators to
be "efficacious" in treating diseases or other conditions. In this regard, please explain to
us why it is appropriate for you to use the terms "efficacious" and "safe" to describe
Revela's molecules and revise your disclosure to describe what is meant by the term
"efficacious."
Please also revise your prospectus, where appropriate, to describe the science that was
performed, and the clinical trials that were conducted, to develop Revela's molecules.
4.We note your references here and throughout to Revela's "extensive multi-category
pipeline of novel molecules." Please revise the prospectus, where appropriate, to describe
these molecules and the categories they address.
Capitalization, page 80
5.Please revise to include indebtedness, such as your loans and digital security liability, as
part of your capitalization table.
Management's Discussion and Analysis
Driving Customer Acquisition, Retention, and Repeat Purchases, page 85
6.Refer to the prior comment number 4 and your response relating to the presentation of net
revenue repeat purchase rate, average order value, order billings from paid and unpaid
sources, and number of active customers. You state that you do not believe the measures
constitute material information necessary for an understanding or evaluation of the
Company's financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations
and you would not identify these measures as key performance indicators as described in
SEC Release No. 33-10751. You also state that you do not currently intend to regularly
disclose net revenue repeat purchase rate, average order value, order billings from unpaid
sources and paid sources, or number of active customers in future periodic filings.
However, you continue to include the disclosures prominently in the filing. Please
address the following:
•Based on the disclosure in the filing, it appears the measures represent metrics for
which the metric guidance would be applicable. In this regard, we note that the net

revenue repeat purchase rate is disclosed throughout the filing, including on page 4,
which appears to emphasize the measure is a metric. In addition, the presentation of
charts for order billings from paid and unpaid sources appears to provide emphasis on
the measure. Please revise the filing to include the disclosures requested, including a
clear definition of each measure, the reason the measure is useful to investors, how
management uses the measure, and whether or not there are any estimates or
assumptions underlying the measure.
•Tell us how "net revenue" in "net revenue repeat purchase rate" is calculated and if
not consistent with GAAP, consider revising the nomenclature.
•Clarify the difference between average order value and average order billings. If the
terms are synonymous, revise the terms to be consistent throughout.
Results of Operations
Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, page 88
7.In order to provide a better understanding of your operations, please quantify each factor
noted related to the change in Revenues and Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses line items from the prior year. For example, you state that the increase in net
revenue is primarily due to increased orders from new customers, increased orders from
repeat customers, contribution from new brand and product categories. Please quantify
each of these factors in revised disclosure.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures, page 90
8.We note your presentation of non-GAAP measures includes adjustments to remove one-
time bonuses, founder’ incentive plan and new brand launch related costs. Please clarify
for us the nature of these costs and tell us how you considered the guidance in
Question 100.01 of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Compliance and Disclosure
Interpretation.
Founder's Letter
ODDITY LABS is Bringing Pharma-Grade AI-Based Molecule Discovery to Beauty and
Wellness, page 106
9.We note your disclosure on page 106 regarding ODDITY LABS and your focus on
"science-backed product development." Please revise this disclosure to clarify whether
you anticipate obtaining FDA approval for the products developed through ODDITY
LABS. If not, please remove your references to "Pharma-Grade . . . Molecule Discovery"
and explain what is meant by "science-backed product development."
10.Please provide the basis for the statement that ODDITY LABS will redefine product
efficacy. In your revisions, please explain what is meant by product efficacy and how the
launch of ODDITY LABS will redefine it. To the extent this statement is based on
management’s belief, please so state.

11.Please revise to explain why the combination of your consumer platform with Revela is a
"game changer." To the extent this statement is based on management’s belief, please so
state.
12.Please revise to provide the basis for your statements that (i) legacy businesses have
underinvested in science, (ii) ingredient innovation has fallen behind the curve, (iii)
consumers are suffering and (iv) your competitors are “doing more of the same for
decades.”

Launching ODDITY LABS to Build the Future of Product Development, page 119
13.We note your disclosure that "Procelinyl's powerful efficacy has been validated in clinical
studies." Please revise to clarify whether this product has been approved by the FDA. To
the extent this product has not been approved by the FDA, please tell us why this language
is appropriate. Additionally, please revise your disclosure to provide further details
regarding the clinical studies and consumer studies referenced in this section, including
the studies in which formulations with ProCelinyl outperformed market-leading
competitors and the clinical study related to Fibroquin.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies
g. Digital Securities, page F-9
14.Please revise to separately classify the Digital security liability on the face of the financial
statements. In addition, please tell us why presentation as a long-term liability at
December 31, 2022 is appropriate considering the securities will convert into Class A
ordinary shares upon your pending initial public offering. Please disclose in Note 16 the
number of securities issued and the issuance price per security.
