Refund & Return Policy
Last updated: May 2026
Every fragrance we sell is backed by our money-back guarantee. If something is not right, we will make it right.
Return Window
You have 7 days from the date you receive your order to request a return.

- Accompanied by the order number or proof of purchase
Any fragrance with a broken seal, signs of use, or missing packaging cannot be returned for change-of-mind reasons. This is standard practice across the global fragrance industry to protect every customer from receiving a used product.

Damaged, Defective, or Wrong Items
We inspect every order before it leaves our warehouse, but if something goes wrong:
- Inspect your order on delivery
- Contact us within 48 hours of receipt with clear photos of the issue and the outer packaging
- We will arrange a free replacement, exchange, or full refund — your choice
This applies to broken bottles, leaked products, wrong items shipped, or any manufacturing defect. You pay nothing.
Money-Back Guarantee
If a product you receive is not as described in our listing, contact us within the 7-day return window and we will arrange a full refund. Our money-back guarantee is backed by our return policy, not a third-party authentication service.
