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.
I enjoy the scents that I have been receiving from scentbird. Its personalized for my own scent choice & if I want to change my choices, I can always go back & change it before it ships it out. Very informative when it comes to shipping, it tells you in a email when it's packaged & when its delivered, one thing I would change on it's how long it takes for me to get the item, but other then that I enjoy the products it sends me & hope to keep using it in the near future.
I signed up for 2 months, but due to some budget cutting, I stopped my subscription and cancelled my account. 6 months later, they start charging my credit card. I have reached out on their email and on their facebook (they don't have a phone number to call). And not one person has helped me. This is ridiculous. Do not sign up for this unless you want your card used without your permission. I'm going to have to call my credit card company to try to get the charge reversed and change the credit card number so they can't continue to do this... so unfair...
Oh no! This definitely should not have been your experience with us and we’re truly sorry about this! If you successfully canceled your account, we definitely would not have processed any further charges. We hope since leaving this review that your situation was rectified but if not, please feel free to email us at socialsupport@scentbird.com-- we’ll be sure to look into this!
I treated myself to a subscription. Since I had kids I stopped buying real perfume and when I seen this I said Im going to treat myself. I love trying out different scents. It's the perfect size to use for about a month.
Hi Monica, 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. Glad that you're treating yourself like that ❤️
I love my scentbird! I am having so much fun discovering new scents at a price I can afford. It is such a great way to try all those fabulous scents you have always wanted to try at a fraction of the price.
We can’t thank you enough for the kind words, Sarah! ❤️ We really appreciate you taking the time out to leave us this wonderful review.
I ordered from them and they never sent the product. They charged my card twice and when I reach out to the company they keep saying they can't find my account. They asked for screenshots and information I used and they still won't help. I literally just got scammed. Now I have to have the bank lock any withdrawals from this company because they claim they can't find a subscription but they are clearly taking my money. I'm so upset. Be careful you guys these company's are stealing from us! Or maybe just me but I have all the proof and they still won't help me.
Tip for consumers:
Don’t do it. Just go to a store and buy it retail.

Hi Dominick, we're very sorry to learn about your negative experience with our customer support service. After I've reviewed your correspondence with our Customer Support Agent, I see that the reason why we've requested more information from you was because the screenshots you've provided didn't help locating your account in our database. Later you've provided us with the email address used for your subscription, & then we could check your account. Your August order was processed & forwarded to the couriers for delivery. You should receive the tracking details soon. I hope that the free credit we've added to your account (that covers your September fragrance) makes up a little for the inconvenience you've had with us so far! We promise to use this as a learning experience! If you ever face this problem again, please contact us at socialsupport@scentbird.com & we’ll gladly help you out ❤️!
What can I say that hasn't already been said by others? They overcharge, hit my credit card twice for the same month, the fragrance is crappy quality and the authenticity is questionable.
I did manage to get a phone number to call after daily multiple emails to them demanding a refund and to be canceled. I was told that I would not get a refund, but as a consolation, I would get issued a "free" perfume. I still have not seen this arrive in my mail and don't expect to.
I was assured that my subscription was canceled and as of today, I have not seen any new charges. So hopefully this ordeal is over and I am a but broker, but wiser for it.
Hi Sharon! We're sorry about this! At the time, Scentbird does not phone support but we're always happy to help via email or social media. We're sorry you have yet to receive your free fragrance. We'll be sure to look into this. Email us at socialsupport@scentbird.com.
The perfumes are nice. I don't like how much each of the cases cost in addition to the perfume. I also am not a fan of being billed on the third for a product I don't receive until the last week of the month. The perfumes are as described and I do like having lots of options.

Hi Kaitlin, thank you for your honest feedback. We're pleased to hear that overall you're enjoying your Scentbird experience and service provided! We are doing our best to save the environment at all costs and this includes lessening the production of the cases. The purpose of the colored case (or extra case) is for our subscribers to re-use them every time they want to switch to a new fragrance. If you wish to order additional cases, you can do so in the Extras & Cases under Fine Fragrance Tab. Rest assured that our team is working hard to improve our shipping times. We really appreciate you being a customer and we promise to keep bettering our service! ❤️
The selection of scents is good, the service works well and as described. But there are CONSTANT and REPEATED attempts to get you to upgrade your account. Sometimes they have to pull a product from your queue because it has sold out, which feels like another attempt to get you to buy more perfumes now, cause supplies are limited. I like the reviews that help you find scents to try. Wish the app were more searchable by attributes.
Love Scent Bird. They have a very nice collection of fragrances and add new ones all the time. It is really reasonable and you get to pick what you like. If you're like me and like to have many scents, this is for you. I have discovered several new fragrances, that I would not have tried if not for Scent Bird.
Such a money saver and time saver. Scentbird is awesome and its truly a one of a kind shop. I have had near a dozen colognes come in and I am so glad I didn't waste money on one in particular I was gonna buy that ended up being super expensive. Thanks Scentbird
So far, I am very impressed with Scentbird. They are very helpful in finding my ideal scents. Never waiting to long for my monthly order, even with Conditions of COVID. Very much recommend Scentbird to all friends and co-workers.
Thanks
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this amazing review, Anthony! We're so pleased to hear that you're enjoying your subscription!
I ordered this at the advertised price but only found out from my bank they charded me in USD. Also the shipping time is estimated at 21 days and I live in a major city. In this day and age that is a ridiculously long time for delivery especially after paying like $8 for delivery and it being a tiny object.
I do like the fact that they have some great parfums like for example Amouage.
The bottles could be a bit larger. They are supposed to last a month; but, I use about six-ten sprays a day and at that rate, it doesn't last too long.
I dislike the fact that when I first joined they sent my order almost right away, at least during the first week of the month. Now that I am a regular subscriber, they don't care. I am receiving my bottles always at the end of the month which is deceiving because I use them for the following month. Why is it that's once we are regular subscribers you guys do not care any longer?
Thank you for your honest feedback, Wolfgang. As noted on our website, we aim to deliver first-time orders within 10 business days. Since Scentbird ships in batches, recurring subscribers can expect their package to leave our fulfilment center 10 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. If you need any help, please email us at socialsupport@scentbird.com and we'll get everything resolved ASAP. Thank you!
It's so nice getting a different fragrance ever month. I get to try a new high price fragrances ever month, without paying the high price. I also love the different color dispensers you can get to carry your scentbird in... they are so compact you can carry more than one with you at a time.
Thank you so much for your love and your positive review, Dean ❤️ We count ourselves lucky for customers like you!
I really enjoyed the first fragrance I received and after that my queue would change without notifying me, then I would receive scents I did not choose. And there is no customer service that is responding to me to address my dissatisfaction with this. Three months now I have gotten fragrances I didn't choose. I'm disappointed of waiting for other people to get my choices first and then I get left with something random I don't like. Like the idea. Unhappy with the availability;(
Tip for consumers:
Plan the queue out months in advance, but even if you do it’s subject to change without your approval.

Thank you for your honest review and we're sorry about your experience, Omni! Some orders had experienced delays as we had low stock availability for some fragrances. We truly apologize for the situation as we did not anticipate the high demand of certain fragrances and our team is doing their best to have these stocks available for everyone. We hope that your issue has been resolved but if not, no worries! You can email us at socialsupport@scentbird.com and our team will be with you shortly!
Scentbird is truly a company that listens to your needs and what you want in the perfume they send. They shipping these padded packages that always keep your stuff safe and they are always on time shipping.
We are so grateful for your kind words, Tori ❤️ Thank you for your 5-star review!
I have just finally received my second scentbird vial, spritzed my normal places once... twice... sprayed a piece of paper and decided that I should check blogs to see if this perfume is legit. The first month I tried my perfume I noticed the scent quickly faded; I asked several people to smell me soon after I spritzed, LOL, and they smelled nothing. I also noticed that shaking the vial was necessary to even get an initial scent. I was trying to be positive, but two months of expensive perfume that I smelled in the store ahead of time is making me question quality. I know oil based perfume last longer so maybe it's my choice of perfumes that are lacking, but I doubt it. This experience is making me not want to actually buy these perfumes that I thought I liked and I'm not sure if I should jugde from this experience. Has anyone else experienced something like this or am I alone?! Please help, I want to stay positive.
Hi Katherine! We appreciate you leaving this feedback! Rest assured, each of the fragrances we offer is of high quality. Depending on the brands you've ordered, the scents strength will vary! We hope since leaving this review, you've received a scent you loved.
I have tried to cancel my service twice and the first time I was told it would cost me $39.00 to cancel and second time I was told it would cost me $37.00 I was going to cancel because I am on a fixed income and money is tight right now. And if I can not afford $16.95 a month right now I can't afford $37.00. I have been getting scentbird for over 2 years and I was only going too cancel temporarily so I could get control of my finances. But if it is this hard to cancel I am not sure I want it to be temporary. When I first signed up it said cancel anytime it didn't say anything about paying too cancel. So how do I cancel with out paying $37.00?
Hi Kathi, thank you for your review and for giving us a high rating. It is much appreciated!

You can always contact us through Instagram DM or Facebook PM, or email us at support@scentbird.com and we'll be right there to assist. Looking forward to hearing back from you, Kathi!
I like the queue and the option to buy ahead of time.
Wish it was easier to Like and Dislike scents I've already tried (I already know I like Calvin Klein Eternity) - something diagnostic for people who already know what they do and don't like when they come here for the first time.
More clean and vegan brands please! I love the Sanctuary series.
In the quiz add an option for someone to be both masculine and feminine or neither (ex. Masculine; Feminine; I like both; Somewhere in between)

They charged my husband's account for months before I realized that he was still paying for this $#*!ty subscription. I never received the product they were billing me for and when I asked if they could refund me my money they refused as well as refused to send out the product I payed for and never got. They find any excuse to take your money and not have to give you the product. I hope this company is shut down soon. It seems like there is a lot of us on the same boat with this fraudulent buisness.
Oh no, Lesley! We're sorry for the confusion caused by your most recent interactions with us. We understand your frustrations but due to certain guidelines we have in place, there are certain actions we cannot take. However, we'd love to look into this for you again, please email us at socialsupport@scentbird.com!
I have tried to cancel my subscription but have been having the worst time trying to cancel my subscription. Your site proclaims how easy it is to cancel but I think it's the worst. I have sent emails several times but nothing is getting done. Sorry but your company needs to do better with that system.
Hi Phillis, I'm sorry to hear about your experience. Your feedback helps us to improve service for everyone, thank you for letting us know. Kindly email us at socialsupport@scentbird.com if you still need any assistance. Thank you!
I am over the moon with Scentbird. I have collected over 40 name brand perfumes (ie. Prada, Juicy Couture, Cartier, Versace, Gucci, Salvatore Ferragamo, Dolce & Gabbana and Michael Kors, etc.) I could not afford my wonderful collection of scents without Scentbird. I now have the opportunity to sample all of my favorite perfumes prior to purchasing a larger bottle. Also, I love the vibrant colored cases that Scentbird offers. The only con is I wish Scentbird would use Fedex or UPS for shipping vs USPS. USPS is not reliable they have already loss one of my packages.

Hi Ida, thank you for helping to share the word about us! ❤️ We're really pleased to hear that you're enjoying your subscription! Kindly note that we're currently working hard on improving our shipping time. Thank you!
For the most part, I love most of the scents i've received. However, the delivery has NOT been so good. I have not received my order for September and October is this Thursday. I'm very close to canceling my subscription. This company needs to get their delivery process together or close shop. Also, you probably need to find another company besides DHL becasue they don't deliver when they say they delivered.
Hi Rochelle, I'm so sorry to hear about your experience. Rest assured that our team is working on improving our shipping times.

I was able to get a great variety of fragrances quickly. They have popular known fragrances, I was able to get Versace eros, creed aventus, dolce Gabbana light blue, Burberry brit in only 2 months. Great deal.
Tip for consumers:
If you get the monthly subscription you can pause it at any time. (I have paused my subscription with no problems)

We are so grateful for your kind words, Terrence! Thanks for sharing your review with us and the community. ❤️
The concept of the website is awesome to bad they cant get it right. If they don't have the perfume in your queue they just don't send you anything that month instead of going to the next scent in your queue or sending you an email, so you can go months without getting anything or they send you there fragrance of the month what they choose when they choose. The last fragrance I received was not put together correct and when I opened it and went to put it in the bottle the top came off and spilled on my rug. They have yet to respond to my emails. Cancelled that subscription.
Oh no Sona! We’re sorry about this! Your fragrance vial should have been tightly closed and wrapped and we’re always happy to send out a replacement if your fragrance vial is damaged or broken. We hope since leaving this review, you've received a replacement and that we were able to turn this experience around for you. If not, please email us at socialsupport@scentbird.com.
