Frequently Asked Questions

What is a decant and how does it work?

Decanting is the meticulous process of transferring a fragrance from its original boutique bottle into smaller, elegant glass atomizers. This allows you to experience authentic luxury and niche perfumery in various sizes without the immediate commitment to a full-size bottle.

It is your ticket to a sensory journey. A decant allows you to wear a fragrance for days or weeks, observing how it evolves on your skin and unfolds in different environments. It is the smartest way to curate your scent wardrobe with confidence.

Is the scent identical to the original bottle?

Absolutely. A decant is the exact same liquid, simply in a more compact form. We use specialized, high-quality tools designed specifically for perfumery. These tools ensure that the process remains clean and the fragrance does not come into contact with anything that could alter its composition. Your decant will perform exactly like the fragrance from the original bottle.

We guarantee 100% authenticity of every drop. Upon request, we are happy to provide proof of purchase from official retailers for any fragrance in our collection.

What sizes can I choose from?

We offer our collection in the following volumes: 2ml, 3ml, 5ml, 10ml, and 15ml.

Please note: To order 2ml decants, there is a minimum requirement of at least 2 units (you can choose two different fragrances).

How to find your perfect scent?

Choosing a fragrance is a deeply personal journey. To help you navigate our collection and find "the one," we’ve created a few simple guideposts:

1. Filter by Key Notes
Do you already know what you love? Whether it’s the warmth of Vanilla, the freshness of Neroli, or the earthiness of Sandalwood, you can now use our Key Notes filter. It’s the fastest way to see all compositions featuring your favorite ingredients and find a scent that feels like "you."

2. Explore by Olfactory Family & Occasion

Do you prefer the crispness of a Citrus morning or the mysterious depth of a Woody evening? Use our filters to sort fragrances by Olfactory Family (Floral, Amber, Fresh, etc.) or by Occasion. Whether you need a professional scent for the office or a seductive signature for a night out, we’ve categorized everything to match your lifestyle.

3. Follow the Mood
Sometimes notes don't tell the whole story. That’s why we’ve included a Mood Description for every fragrance. Instead of just listing ingredients, we describe the vibe and the aura the scent creates. Look for keywords like sun-drenched, smoky, creamy, or salty to visualize how the perfume will feel on your skin.

4. Start with a Curated Discovery Set
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, let us do the work for you. Our Discovery Sets are ready-made fragrance solutions. Whether you’re looking for a complete Perfume Wardrobe, a collection of Clean Girl scents, or a deep dive into Vanilla Mood, these sets are the perfect way to explore a specific aesthetic.

5. Lean on the Beauty of Decants
Remember, perfumery is subjective. No matter how detailed a description is, your skin chemistry is the final ingredient. Decants are the ultimate way to experiment safely. If you’re hesitant, we recommend starting with a 2ml decant or a Set (3 x 2ml) to live with the fragrance before committing.

How long will my decant stay fresh?

To preserve the integrity of your fragrance, we recommend using it within 12 months. To maintain its brilliance, follow these simple rules:

  • Keep it cool: Store in a stable environment away from humidity.
  • Avoid light: Keep your vials away from direct sunlight.
  • Stay sealed: Ensure the cap is always tightly closed.
How does the ordering process work?

Since we provide a boutique service, we personally handle every request. Once you place an order, we manually verify our current stock to ensure your selected scents are available. Within a few hours, we will contact you via WhatsApp to confirm your order and provide all the necessary details to complete your purchase.

Why do I need to enter my address in Checkout if I chose a locker?

In our online store, the Checkout page requires a billing address for system purposes. Don't worry — your order will be delivered strictly to the BOX NOW locker you specified in your Cart. The address you enter at Checkout is purely for billing/record-keeping and does not affect your delivery destination.

Can I return the product?

Due to the nature of our products—decanted fragrances—we cannot accept returns for hygiene and quality control reasons. Once a scent is poured and shipped, we are unable to resell it.
However, if you receive the wrong item, or if the product arrives damaged due to transit, please contact us immediately via WhatsApp, and we will make it right!
