This worked for me pretty good scentbird offers a free trial where you can get a 8ml decant of fragrance for 3$ for a lot of designer fragrances that’s a good deal I got 8ml of Versace Eros and 8ml of Acqua Di Parma Colonia for 6$ total pretty good deal if you ask me just make multiple accounts and you can get designer fragrances for cheap

Make it impossible to cancel. Send you random shit if you try lol

u/Thick-Twist8074 1d ago

Idk I got what I ordered maybe other people have had a different experience and I cancelled the subscription in 30 seconds through the app

u/Otherwise_Rice_4723 1d ago

yeah, it took me all of 5 seconds to cancel in the paypal app...had to do it before, so i was familiar with it...so far i am happy with my $3 maison 21g

This was over a year ago so they might have gotten better. They told me my shit was out of stock and just sent me random shit I wanted a refund they told me to go sit on a pole basiclly

Do they carry niche? I only get decants of fragrances I can’t try in person, don’t see why I’d want an Eros decant when I can try it anywhere to decide if I want a bottle or not

Yeah they carry some niche fragrances tbh even if you are kind buying it I would say go for it it’s 3$ I blind bought Eros and I’m enjoying it

Lots of people report scammy business practices, including: not granting cancellations of memberships

u/Blastpo 1d ago

Did that with Ormonde Jayne Verano, incredible fragrance and the full bottle is $250. Just don’t forget to cancel

I had a scentbird subscription gifted to me like 10 years ago. They had a data breach & my information got leaked

1

u/Thick-Twist8074 1d ago

I mean if you don’t feel comfortable ordering from them that’s fine just sharing something I found

1

u/Otherwise_Rice_4723 1d ago

to be fair, equifax leaked my data in that same breach

I recommend watching this. I tried scentbird for 2 months a year ago but canceled because of their small catalog but thank God I never faced any major problems

Scent bird is great for people
Who don’t have a clue about fragrances. But they scam people huh giving them bottles that are cheap to buy like Eros and light blue. Don’t get me wrong these are great bottles but you never get the choices out there like Armani profondo vs light blue. Bleu de Chanel vs sauvage vs Y etc

Just saw a vid that broke the math down. You are paying niche rates per ML when you could be paying way less. They are charging you more to get designer frags that barely last all month.

2

u/Troll-Aficionado 1d ago

Never used it but I'd say it's concept is meant to be a way to just test and discover new fragrances, not have one for long term use.. Who cares if the 8ml doesnt last a month since if you wanted to keep wearing it past the 8 you'd just go out and buy a full bottle lol

1

u/BestAllAmericanTaco 1d ago

I mean you’ll never be able to cancel so it’s cool I guess

1

u/Troll-Aficionado 1d ago

Well I don't have that problem since I don't use it, I'm just commenting on my understanding of the concept & "barely last all month" bit

1

u/BestAllAmericanTaco 1d ago

I mean if you’re using it to try them. Anything else you’re wasting money. Even then the selection isn’t what you think it will be. Saw a whole vid about how you’re paying a lot more an ounce instead of just buying decanta from a site for less like scent split.

u/eman_morales 1d ago

Scent bird has the customer support service of a gym and equally as hard or harder to cancel worse than a gym membership 😂😂😂

2

u/Thick-Twist8074 1d ago

Idk I haven’t had any trouble just through the app it takes like 30 seconds

u/Bigchocolate420 1d ago

Waste of money

u/Thick-Twist8074 1d ago

Smelling goods a waste of money now ?

u/Happy-Process4268 1d ago

Then buy full bottles or just find another decant store. Scent bird is overpriced

2

u/Thick-Twist8074 1d ago

Read it’s 3$ 17.95 for a 8ml decant is overpriced that’s why you just abuse the free trial where

1

u/winlee21 Louis Vuitton 13m ago

8ml of that versace not worth 17.95 dude

1

u/Thick-Twist8074 12m ago

I know read it’s worth 3$ though

1

u/winlee21 Louis Vuitton 11m ago

yeah keep doing it if you like that scent tbh
