Before, I was used to buying perfumes only when I travelled, thinking that duty-free shops had the best offers. Now, I realise that Scentbird is the best store for perfume or cologne. They have regular promotions and offers that you can really get a nice perfume at a bargain price. I have bought it already a couple of times, one for myself, and few as gifts. The quality is good and I am satisfied with it. They have wide range of options, and the website is quite good too, so you can easily explore the products online. I recommend!
I wasn't happy with this perfume. The scent was very strong for my liking. I like fruity scents and fresh and clean scents but this one was too empowering. I did not like the scent. This one was not for me.
The service is a waste of money.
You can't cancel without emailing them.
They don't ask you to choose a scent if your queue is empty, they ship you a random garbage scent you didn't ask for.
Absolute terrible process, you are better off just buying the scents you want to try one time.

Tip for consumers:
I found this scent very strong and empowering. This one is not my kind of scent I would purchase. I like fruity scents or fresh and clean scents but this one was too strong and floral like scent. I Did not like it. It's not for me.

The money, though? That was charged immediately, as expected.
After seeing the ads on Instagram for months, on July 22nd 2024 I *finally* took the bait and purchased a monthly subscription. I selected my first scent right away, and I was charged for the transaction. Lovely, I thought to myself as I expected to wait 10 business Days. (I'm in Canada)
Those days passed, and my order hadn't even shipped. I contacted Scentbird support on August 13th, 2024 16 full Business Days after my purchase.
"Your order is processing and will reach you within 10 business days"...hmm OK, cool.
Today is August 23rd, 2024. My order is still processing, and the thought of my perfume shipping is but a faint glimmer on the horizon. I have emailed support again asking for a full refund and cancelation of my subscription. To say I'm disappointed is an understatement.
Buyer beware!

We're always here to help at support@scentbird.com✉️. Thank you so much for your patience. 🕊️💌
I got a subscription for myself and my wife. I went ahead and added an extra fragrance a month bring it to (4) total scents per month. When signing up for this subscription service I was told you're able to choose your scents each month. I went ahead spent some time found some I thought we would enjoy. All was well until today when I received an email saying my order is being shipped. I had a look at the order and to my surprise the company had gone ahead and choose all new scents that neither my wife or myself would like. I contacted support and told them to cancel my orders because in my books that was very deceiving. They did cancel my subscription BUT… there is always a but… they said that due to there policy they will not issue any refunds. So basically what this company is doing is having users sign up to pick nice designer fragrances once payment is received they change your order to less well known kinda junk bin fragrances and weather you catch it before they ship it or not they will NOT issue you a refund they will send you the bin fragrances and keep the money you spend for well known kinda good fragrances that you have picked.
It's deceiving almost fraud what is going on with this company. They lost over $100.00 a month USD subscription and I hope this review helps others from having there money taken and from being deceived by this company

My daughter purchased a six-month subscription as a gift. I set up a profile that only allows me to access the site to purchase stuff off the site. My daughter said it should come with one fragrance per month as part of the service - nowhere on the site could I find that benefit. So, I chatted with customer service and received some canned BOT response relevant to an unrelated topic. Rating this site on a scale of 1-10 - "ONE" I feel bad for my daughter as this would be a thoughtful give if the company was legit.
Tip for consumers:
Would not recommend this as a gift to anyone!

So far I've gotten 3 different scents. Waiting on my 4th. And I'm not impressed at all. 17$ a piece and they all smell like old powder. My next one is a ln Ariana one, and im Hoping I like that one. At this rate, I'd rather go into a store and smell samplers just to find a good one. I'm going to keep ordering a few more just in case it was hit hit and miss. So far, feels like a waste of money. Even at this price.

I've tried some other perfume subscription boxes and prefer Scentbird. They don't have as many niche perfumes as I'd like, and hopefully, that changes. The overall experience is the best due to the aesthetics, packaging, and the little details like the labels; even the samples outside the case look nice when displayed in a glass container. You can tell that everything was thought out. All the perfumes I've received have smelled good; some smelled "off" from other companies. I guess my only request is more niche or even borderline perfumes, which is why I'm giving it four stars.
Tip for consumers:
I think this is a great way to try new perfumes.

They take forever to ship your order, waiting about days for my little scent, plus they charge $10 to subscribe then another $10 for your order plus shipping and handling.

Hey there! Sorry for any hassle and the confusion with your billing.😞 Your first order ships from our facility within 5 business days and is typically delivered by the post office within 10 business days of your billing. It takes any longer, please let us know and we'll fix it.
We're all about keeping things crystal clear.🫧 A 1-fragrance/month plan goes for $16.95, but you may get a promo that gives you a certain discount for your first fragrance. Shipping within the United States is free amd $4.99 USD to Canada. An extra charge can only pop up when you upgrade your subscription or add premium items for that month, but we'll always give you a heads-up. Just shoot us a quick email at support@scentbird.com📧, and we'll clear everything up!🌟 We'd love nothing more than for you to have a good experience.🫶🤎
I really like the option to buy a small bottle of good smelling perfume and that you can easily pause your sub. It is nice that you can pick for different months in a queue. I am pretty satisfied.

I had my Scentbird account for almost a year, the service was okay, but very expensive. The reason I had my account for so long is because they make it so difficult to cancel. Additionally, I use anonymous emails for each subscription, and as soon as I cancelled my subscription, I started receiving very convincing scam emails to the address that was only ever used for Scentbird. So, that leads me to believe that once you cancel your subscription, they sell your information. Scummy company, I highly recommend you avoid them.

I didn't realize that my old address was still on the site. I asked them if they could forward it to the new address and Ron had said yes, we'll send it. I then was like ok, let's just cancel this month's.
He SAID OK, IT HAD NOT BEEN SHIPPED OUT YET.
I found out 2 days later that the package was sent out to the WRONG ADDRESS. I contacted customer service who refused to refund my money and insisted on sending it out to the new address. I didn't want it anymore.
Because they were incredibly frustrating, I decided to cancel the service.
THEY CHARGED ME FOR SOMETHING I NEVER GOT.
THEY HAD AGREED TO CANCEL IT THIS MONTH BUT SENT IT OUT ANYWAY.
HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE.

I had a subscription to Scentbird for 4 months, but wanted to cancel. Trying to cancel through the app takes you to a page that asks you to give the reason for the cancellation, but the page never fully loads making it impossible to complete the cancellation. Using their "Contact Us" link just takes you around in circles. There is no customer service phone number to call. The only number I did find was answered with an automated message stating there is no customer service via phone. Eventually I had to go through my third-party payment program and have them cancel the recurring payments. Sure, it was a fun little package to get every month with perfumes I would probably never have tried, but absolutely not worth signing up for given the difficulty to connect with customer service or cancel the subscription.

My first order was $28 with the conversion from USD to CAD. I thought ok, a little pricey but not too bad. My second order was $47! Their excuse was BS! If you are Canadian, it is so not worth the price! A total waste of money! I rate this App 0 Stars but you have to give it at least a 1 star to post your review. 2 thumbs down 👎🏾

Just like the tin says. They deliver what they say. Products are nice, though your mileage may vary. They are scents, after all, so it's a process of refining what you like and do not like. One minor complaint is that they sometimes forget to include the little info card telling you about the scent. Rest is pretty positive, though.

Decided to try scent bird amd the first months was 8 USD, and to upgrade for the first month it was and additional 12 USD. I chose 3 scents one being an extra 10 dollars. After I checked my account I was charged by them 3 separate time adding up to over 70 dollars. I immediately reached out to cancel the subscription and be refunded and after 2 days they finally responded saying it was to late and they had shipped the order. They didn't ship the order until the next day. They also claimed I had ordered 2 premium scent and apparently the premium 3 scent deal didn't apply to my account. I asked them for an actual bill to see how they broke down the charges and I haven't recieved any response from them. So for 1/10 customer service and incredibly misleading pricing

My subscription was supposed to be $7.99 a month or something like that, when I look at my bank statement they've been charging over $18 for months. And this last time I didn't even receive my order. The perfumes are nice but it's not worth it if you don't want to get scammed
Tip for consumers:
You won't be getting charged what you think you will, it'll tell you that you have giveaways for friends and when they go to get it it'll try to make them pay, no one will respond if you don't get your product and no one is accountable for charging you twice the amount you agreed to.

This is a great way to build a nice array of perfumes. I receive two each month. There is a vast array of scent styles available. My only dislike is that they send you one, really awful looking case. Gray plasticy thing. You can only purchase a different one at a high cost. To me, one should be given each month in a seasonal color. They charge a lot for these cases! It's just a cheap, plastic cylinder which would cost.50 cents to make. Because the scent vials have a unique shape you can only buy from Scentbird. Almost a deal breaker for me. It's hard at first to get the hang of spraying the perfume. I recommend Scentbird to friends and have given gifts that were well received.

Hi Calvin, we are very sorry for all the frustration caused by our processing and shipping times! Kindly note that since Scentbird ships in batches, recurring subscribers can expect their package to leave our fulfillment center 5 business days after billing (please add shipping time from here).

We're working on improving the length of time it takes to receive your order though!
