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.
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.

Don't get me wrong, I love my subscription to scentbird. However I feel like they are greedy. I get perfumes can be expensive, but a perfume vial of lower end makers (I don't mean that in a bad way) is pricey. I can literally add a few more dollars to what I pay and go buy a way bigger bottle. Then on top of that to have a designer name brand sample u have to add extra money to get it which makes the already costly price not even worth it. If I was in their marketing, I'd work a deal with the fragrance companies to get them to give us a hell of a discount since we r promoting their products and potentially upping their business sales, while being able to send our customers a better sample variety while also making our own company a profit. Sometimes u make more by asking for less. Just sayin.

I just upgraded from the 1 vial a month to 3 a month. It's $37.00 and I get to choose what ones I wanna try if I want. If I don't then they send random scents.

Thanks again for your input and for being a valued subscriber. If you have any other suggestions or need assistance, feel free to reach out at support@scentbird.com. We’re here for you!🤗
Not quite what I expected but still a good fragrance. It almost smells a little burnt(that sounds odd I know) but very citrusy which was nice. Very pungent - you only need one spray - 2 tops.

Thanks for the feedback, Frida!🤗 We're glad you enjoyed the citrusy notes. A little goes a long way! If you have any other thoughts or need recommendations, feel free to reach out at support@scentbird.com. Enjoy your fragrance!🥰
I love every scent I got so far! They definitely do arrive in a timely manner and I've gotten every single order I've placed. Even the ones from my subscription and they stay having sales! I have a larger collection of Purdue's I've never heard of and I love them just as much as the popular ones! The cases are cute as well! I really hope they add Valentino to their variety! They definitely have some name brand ones too. Hopefully they add Chanel too! I also like how you can purchase full size bottles too but hopefully they will do that for all perfumes!

I've had nothing but amazing experiences with Scentbird. They are the first subscription company I can say that about. Even when I had a negative reaction to a product, they did their best to make sure I was happy; replacing the product with something else from my queue with no questions asked. Then reached out via email to check in. I just can't speak highly enough of this company.

I subscribed to the monthly perfume membership and also purchased a sample of a fragrance at the same time. During checkout the shipping said free. I checked out completely and received an email receipt. Then 5 mins later I get another email receipt saying they added $6 for shipping of the tiny perfume vial sample I got. This is ILLEGAL. I completely checked out and doing so, agreed to the price that showed during checkout. They can't just add money to the already agreed upon price afterwards. I'm filing a fraud complaint on them with my bank.

Hi Angel! We apologize for the billing confusion!😔 Shipping for our subscription items is completely free within the United States. This doesn't cover any one-time orders purchased outside the subscription, and doesn't apply to shipments going to Canada. We'd be more than happy to make this right for you and clear things up. Please reach out to us with the details of your order at support@scentbird.com.🫶
I have literally been trying for almost 6 months to cancel this freaking account I canceled it because I don't like their products they give me a headache the following month they still charged me the only thing that I can do was pause it and I've been going back and forth with email with them and apparently I didn't say cancel the subscription enough times that they reenacted the subscription and charged me again stay away do not mess with them
Tip for consumers:
It should not be this hard you should not have to go through these many hoops and this many emails and these many months to cancel a subscription I feel like this is illegal

Thank you for such a beautiful review, Katie 🥰! This really makes us happy to know that you're loving your Scentbird experience 💖 We're so happy that you chose us to help you with your fragrance discovery journey 🔥
First off if you need help with your order good luck they don't have a customer service number! Plus I put my scents in my cart and was willing to pay extra for my sense that I wanted. Also I was supposed to get a case every month with my 2 fragrances but guess what out of the 4 months I was with them they only sent me one case that I paid extra for

Hi Brandon, we don't offer phone service at this time, but please know that we're actively improving our communication ✨. Rest assured that our Customer Experience Team is always happy and available to help 🙌. If you need any assistance, feel free to email us at support@scentbird.com or DM us via any of our social media channels and our team will be with you shortly 💌 All of our subscribers receive one free grey fragrance case in their very first shipment. All the rest of the fragrances come in protective cardboard cases. The purpose of the case is for our subscribers to re-use it every time they want to switch to a new fragrance 🍃 If you wish to order additional cases of various colors, you can do so in the Scentbird Cases under the Shop Tab ❤️
I love it however, the first thing, I do not like is that I can't repeat scents every month or every other month. I get that you want me to try new scents but if I fall in love with a certain scent then I would like to be able to get a couple of them. The second thing, I don't like is not knowing how much they are going to charge my card every month. The third thing, I don't like how long it takes for me to get my new scents once my card has been charged. Fourth thing, I don't like how you can't see your orders until you receive them. The first thing I love is the cute cases for the sample perfumes. I love that I can try high-end fragrances before purchasing the whole bottle. I love the wide selection of fragrances that they offer. I wish they had a customer services department that you could call with any questions or concerns. Overall I am extremely happy with Scentbird
Hi Alana, thank you for sharing with us and the community 😊 Because we’re a fragrance discovery platform, you can only place the same fragrance every 6th month ❤️ This is done in order to give our customers a chance to explore different scents, as this is the core idea of our service- we are a sampling platform 💥 Once you've found your signature scent, we recommend that you purchase a full-size bottle from an authorized vendor or the brand directly 💕 You can always track your orders as soon as they get processed via your Scentbird account, and can make changes to your queue, so you're in full control of what you receive each month. 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). In addition, because our fragrances are considered Hazardous Materials, the shipments can take up to ten business days to be delivered in ground shipping 🙌. We're working on improving the length of time it takes to receive your order though! We appreciate your feedback and will forward it to our Management Team ❤️ Meanwhile, feel free to email us at support@scentbird.com if you need any help 💌 Thank you!
This is my first month with scent bird. I received a very nice scent, very similar to a scent I'd like. I'm just curious as to what I will be charged the following month as well as what is the little spec floating in my bottle. I took off the label so you could see it better. And I also cannot get back into my account? Every time I try it says the website is down, both on my laptop and my phone.
So glad that overall you're enjoying your fragrance discovery journey with Scentbird, Olivia ❤️ But the quality of the vial you received doesn't sound right at all! We process and ship out all of our fragrance vials in perfect condition. Our Team makes sure that each vial you receive is brand new, freshly filled, and not tampered with in any way. Could you please contact us at support@scentbird.com so our Team could look into it and make things rght? Thank you!
I'm pretty satisfied with the sent bird website and the subscription plaything is that I think that they can probably make do with a little bigger vials for their scent when they send them out it's kind of difficult to make them two scents last for the entire month before getting a new one. But other than that I would like them to sell full bottles of certain fragrances that I don't see on the website

Hi Ernest, really appreciate your feedback and are very happy to hear you're enjoying our service overall ❤️🔥🤗 We refer to it as a month's supply because each vial contains 8mL/0.27oz and has been tested to provide a minimum of 120 sprays, which equates to 4 sprays per day for 30 days. However, if you find that 4 sprays aren't sufficient, we also offer subscriptions with 2 or 3 perfumes per month! 💕 If you have any more questions, please feel free to reach out to us at support@scentbird.com. We're here to assist with a smile! 😊
I love the concept of a monthly subscription and they have a good algorithm to help select fragrances. My issue is that the shipping takes a fair amount of time and my November fragrance was delivered on the 4th of December. I also wish they had more designer brands to chose from. Overall it's good and "almost there" to be awesome.

My order has not arrived almost a month after ordering and shows as "awaiting carrier." Meanwhile, customer service does not respond after changing the "expected delivery date" three times. Messages of "we are overwhelmed, so please be patient," are all I get. They are clearly too overwhelmed to run this business properly. I should have looked at the Better Business Bureau's incredibly low rating before buying anything from this company. I definitely do not recommend them. Save your money and buy from somewhere that you will actually receive your purchase and receive customer service if something goes wrong.
Hi Lisa, we're very sorry to hear that you haven't received your order yet. We have received a higher volume of messages recently and our team has been working around the clock to get back to each and every customer as soon as we possibly can. Our Team will gladly assist you with your issue in a timely manner if you could send us a direct message via Instagram or a private message via Facebook. We could locate your account and make sure that you receive your order at the earliest convenience! Thanks so much and looking forward to hearing from you!
Im really glad I found scentbird as most fragrance delivery companies didn't deliver to Canada. Their application interface is easy to use and building your profile based on my taste was seamless and fun. I've always loved fragrances but could never commit to buying full volumes so this company allowed me to explore and discover different scents I never thought I'd otherwise try. Different scents bring out a different side of me, and I'm loving it. Customer service has been very pleasant and swift when I had to request for a refund on an error purchase I made. Highly recommend this company.
Hi Wilfredo, thank you for helping to share the word about us! ❤️ We're really pleased to hear that you're enjoying your subscription!
I really enjoy having the option of trying expensive fragrances without paying out the easy 60 dollars for an once of something you may not like all that much. I mean 3.4 oz can last a really long time so you want to you're going to enjoy what you're investing into. I think cologne can be important especially when it comes to taking pride in yourself and making an impression. I love Cedar, Sandalwood, Clove and Patchouli (in small doses). So it gives me a chance to look through designer brand products to see if anything matches my preferences. I love this subscription and can't wait to receive the next!
We're SO happy to hear that you are loving our service, Steven! We appreciate your review very much :)
Don't waste your money. I signed up for Scentbird almost a year ago. The first few scents that I received were good, and then it went downhill rapidly. Not only did they not send stuff that was based on the preferences that I gave; they sent several women's perfumes. I emailed support to let them know that I had no interest in wearing feminine perfumes, and what happened next? Two more perfumes. There are still men in this world that prefer looking and smelling masculine than to looking and smelling feminine. It's really too bad, became this is truly a great idea.
My suggestion: take the $240 that you'll spend with Scentbird over the course of a year and invest in a premium scent (Tom Ford, for example will go a long way) or a couple of more modest scents that you like. Odds are, you will not like the vast majority of what this company send you.
Hi Mike, I'm sorry to hear about your negative experience with Scentbird. Please be assured that as a Scentbird subscriber, you have complete control over the contents of each shipment by managing the items in your queue. If your queue is empty, we automatically send the Fragrance of the Month: Perfumes for those who selected Perfumes in their account settings, and Colognes for those who chose Colognes. At all times, you have the option to explore our extensive catalog of over 500 fragrances and select scents based on your preferences. Alternatively, you can allow our system to choose for you based on your account settings. If you're interested, we would be more than happy to review your account settings and rectify the situation. We can also send you replacement items as a gesture of goodwill for the perfumes you received. Please reach out to us at support@scentbird.com or contact us privately through our social media channels. We are here to assist you.
Who doesn't love spend hours at the fragrance counter trying a plethora of
High end fragrances! You finally find "the one" and spend your money, take your treasure home only to find that after 2 hours the dry down is NOT what you expected! Ugh another huge bottle of something you'll never wear collecting dust.
Never again!
With Scentbird you pick ( I get 3 different fragrances a month) you play for 30 days and make an experienced informed sure and solid
Choice that you'll love
A collection of your favorite scents being used and enjoyed. No dust!
How can you go wrong?
I highly recommend the Scentbird fragrances subscription!
Hi Emily, we really appreciate your 5-star review! We work hard to meet expectations like yours, and we’re happy to hear we hit the mark for you. Thank you for sharing your beautiful photos! ❤️
I love this subscription. I get to try 3 scents a month and the size is not particularly small (and it's cheaper to pay in advance). Plus I'm not stuck with dozens of large bottles of perfumes that I don't wear. The recommendations are pretty spot on, and out of 12 or so fragrances, I've only had one I didn't care for. My daughter liked it though, so all was good. Highly recommend this if you like to have a variety of scents to choose from..

Hi Shannon, I'm delighted to hear that you're enjoying your experience! Thank you for sharing your feedback! ❤️ We appreciate you!
I've worn the same three perfumes my entire life so this has been the perfect way for me to discover new scents. I haven't had any trouble with my account or receiving products. I was ordering one per month and have increased it to two now. The quiz you take to find the scents you prefer is very accurate and it helps them choose a perfume you may enjoy if you didn't pick one. I love this company and I'm glad I didn't steer clear of them based on negative reviews I read before signing up. I think everyone should do it if you enjoy receiving monthly gifts.
Tip for consumers:
I’d sign up when they have a promotion so that you can experience it for yourself. If you don’t like it the. Cancel it.

Thank you for your love and loyal support, Michelle ❤️ We're thrilled to hear that you enjoy trying out the scents that we offer.
I really enjoy trying different types of perfumes, and you get enough to actually play around with. Customer service was responsive when I had a question. Selection is varied. I recommend as someone who is interested but never got into scents due to price and intimidation. The way you smell can really make you feel better. Quick note: scents interact with your skin, so sometimes something that smells amazing on a friend becomes unpleasant on you, so being able to try, and not just a one time sample, is really nice.
Thank you for your love and support, Hailey! We're so grateful for customers like you! ❤️
Hi im Adrianna, and today I'm going to be talking about Scentbird. I've been using scentbird from since August 2020 and so far I'm really happy with the results. There products are amazing, I love the way they come, And the delivery doesn't take too long. It's perfect when you want to test a perfume before buying the entire bottle as well. I definitely look forward to them coming each month. They have so much to choose from at a pretty good price. This is a perfect gift for a loved one. And there are sprays for both men and woman.

I enjoyed the first fragrance that they sent, but at about $18 per month I can find many affordable options that will last for months. Cancelling the subscription is also a hassle since you can't cancel directly on the website. You have to email them to cancel and will then be faced with long waits from their customer support. Seems predatory to me. I regret trying them out.
Hi Mia, we appreciate your message. And we apologize for any inconvenience caused by our cancelation process! It is in no way meant to be tedious or difficult. We do ask our subscribers why they wish to cancel their subscription, only to see if there is anything about their experience that caused them to cancel that we can rectify.
