Love getting my package every month. I'm like a kid waiting for Christmas. One time my order came, and was damaged, reached out over time to customer service, they immediately replaced it! Now that's good business!
The scents from scentbird are what you would expect. Little month supplies of your favorite colognes or perfume (they also have some skin care, and perfumes) that you can pick prior to shipping. The little cases that come with them are alright nothing special. Just simple twist cases. Have had one cologne fall out and shatter but other than that it's fine. The problems come with shipping. They use DHL (which is already not a great shipping company from my personal experiences) which DHL then sends to another company to get delivered which makes it infuriating to coordinate any sort of drop off/delivery. Not only that it will take roughly over 30 days for the shipment to reach you. I know this is a problem in general because of their recent move to NJ to help with the Delievery process but they still have a lot to do. Good products, AMAZING customer service, but DHL almost ruins the whole process with their awful service.
Hi Cody, thank you for sharing your feedback. We're pleased to hear that overall you're enjoying your experience! Because we ship in batches plus offer free shipping and work hard to customize each order according to the fragrance you’ve selected, delivery time may vary. In addition, because our fragrances are considered Hazardous Materials, the shipments can take up to 5 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 really appreciate you being a customer and we promise to keep bettering our service! ❤️
While I love the concept, this company is either a complete scam or just horrible at business. I received my first month with no issues in July, have been charged for August and September but have yet to receive either months subscription. Continued emails to customer service are nothing less than automated bang you head against the wall emails with little to no information from "scent fairies". The last email I received provided me with August's tracking number, I logged on and my profile shows that tracking number as September's. It is also showing with a date of 9/21 - they moved their facilities to NJ allegedly, not Guam! No clue what the issue is with why it is so difficult to get on track with this.
I'm leaning towards this company being a scam. Not worth the aggravation and lack of making it right for their customers.
Hi Kelly! Thanks for leaving your feedback-- we’re so sorry this has been your experience with us and we completely understand your frustration. We value you as a subscriber and we appreciate your patience with us. We hope since leaving this review you've received your fragrances. However, if not, let us know and we can look into this. Email us at socialsupport@scentbird.com. We’d like to make this better for you!
Placed my first order Jan. 2nd 2019 and received it Feb. 5th. I opted for the two scent subscription. Opened padded envelope to find one bottle was almost empty. (maybe ten sprays left) The second bottle was full but didn't spray properly. It just spit out three drops about a half inch from the spritzer... looked in the hole where the cologne exits and saw the plastic insert was in pieces. My Scentbird account never showed any progress on my order. It just says it was being processed. I emailed them pictures and a video of their crappy product. They said they will attempt to send me a replacement shipment. Let's just wait and see what comes next...
Hi Michael! This is completely opposite of the experience we wished you to have and we’re sorry both vials arrived damaged. We're hopeful you've received both replacements since leaving this review. If we can help with anything now or in the future, email us at socialsupport@scentbird.com. We're happy to help!
They don't offer refund even if it's their fault.
I subscribed for annual plan which was $162.
Charged me twice and told we don't offer refund.
Only way to stop them charging me every month to cancel my subscription.
Now let's talk about the fragrances Well its basically water with very little real stuff.
Worst experience
Oh no, Jatinderbir! We're sorry about this-- email us at socialsupport@scentbird.com. We can definitely rectify this situation!
Scentbird was fine at first, the $15 charge is a lot for the tiny bottle of perfume they send you and while I used to be a customer…trying to cancel your subscription is a whole other story. For the past three months I have been confirmed by 3 different reps that my subscription has been canceled, but my card continues to be charged each month. Trying to contact them isn't any better. I had to DM their social media just to see if I could get a response and even then I was literally ignored, after numerous emails have been sent, and now I am just collecting my receipts to file a consumer protection claim. Not to mention the waste each product creates from sending me all these stupid glass bottles. Terrible perfume and even worse service team.
Do not do it. I know you're tempted. I mean come on a new scent every month. For only $15 that's amazing right? Except you actually don't get a new scent every month because their shopping sucks. Your shipping might get lost and it'll most likely arrive damaged if by the grace of god it ever gets delivered. I kept emailing them all I get is an automatic response. Bottom line, find some other alternative. It was indeed too good to be true. The good reviews on here was probably paid.
So sorry to see your negative view of the service you received from Scentbird, Khermatie. Rest assured that we always send all of our customers' orders. First-time subscribers can expect their orders to be delivered within 10 business days. If for some reason orders are missing, we're always open to assisting in finding or replacing these orders. In case if your shipment arrived empty or leaks, we're absolutely happy to send replacements ASAP. A greater number of messages have been sent to us recently, and our team has been working hard to respond to each one as quickly as we can. But we always reply to those who contact us via support@scentbird.com or through our social media channels. Let us know if you still need assistance, and we'll gladly make things right by you!
I was really thinking that Scentbird could be a game changer for me trying out new luxury perfumes.
When the package arrives, I was greeted with an empty case and some greeting cards with no perfume. I can't believe falling to hyped up per month subscription basis for fragrances.
Hi Denzel, we’re sorry about the leaked fragrance & we understand how frustrating this is! Rest assured our QA team is doing its best to investigate and do preventive measures to avoid fragrance vials from leaking and being damaged during the shipment process. We're always here to help you by sending you replacements for the leaked vials! Just email us at support@scentbird.com. We’ll take a closer look and follow up with you directly. Looking forward to your message!
I started looking into different fragrances this winter hoping to find something new/different/me. I was quickly overwhelmed with how many options there are and colognes that seemed worth trying! Scentbird helps take the guess work out by providing good-sized samples at a great price! Website is incredibly well-designed and easy to use. Adding scents to your queue each month is easy, and there are thousands of customer reviews to help narrow down your choices. Glad i stumbled onto this gem!
Thank you so much for your 5-star review, Fred! We really appreciate you ❤️
Just recently placed my first order with them which was 50% off,the very next day I checked my checking account and they had 11 pending charges for 8.81,for what!, immediately had a stop payment just for this company,can't get any answers,customer service is crap!
Hi Sharon, rest assured that our standard plan costs $16.95 USD. If want to receive 2 or 3 products per month, you'll have to pay the difference of these new plan subscriptions (2 products/monthly comes at $27, whereas 3 products/Monthly costs $37 a month). Some premium items require an upcharge from $5 to $15 to the regular subscription cost. Those items are usually niche fragrances or full-size skincare/make-up products. Kindly note that there are no other hidden costs or renewal fees. We’ll always confirm with you when adding a premium product to your queue so that there’s no confusion! If you have any questions about our offering please reach out to us via Instagram DM/Facebook PM, we're here to help :) !
The colognes used to have okay selection now it's just colognes they've gotten for cheap and are marking up. It's also almost impossible to cancel I tried cancelling before my renewal but I was still charged because their customer support couldn't check messages until it was in the "one day" processing step. This is bs as I contacted before and abided by their rules. Borderline illegal activities from their deceptive practices.
Hi M 👋 We do send out fragrances from brand names if you choose them and add them to your queue ✔️💯 because we use customers' queues as a roadmap for what they are interested in receiving. In case you leave the queue empty, we send out Fragrance of the Month ✨ We offer a one-time courtesy replacement for disliked fragrances! + We highly recommend rating the scents you received so that our website gets to know you better. The more you rate, the better our website can provide you with personalized choices that you are likely to enjoy ❤️ When it comes to subscription cancelation, you can absolutely end your subscription if you decide it's not what you need anymore 💯 You can email us: support@scentbird.com, but you can also DM us via our social media channels ✉️ We'll cancel it for you on your behalf 💕
I joined because I am very sensitive to certain orders. I thought this would be a good way to try some scents without purchasing an entire bottle of perfume. However, after getting three different samples I have developed migraines with all of them.
I decided maybe this just isn't going to work for me. I have tried to cancel my subscription three times now and got nowhere. I can't get through to a live person to stop this. I submitted an email and they responded that someone will be in contact. Still waiting. Meanwhile, I was charges yet again. I feel trapped. Help!
Hi Sabrina, so sorry to hear this! Rest assured that we offer authentic designer fragrances provided to us by authorized vendors or brands directly. Unfortunately, because we are solely a retailer of the products we offer and we don't manufacture them ourselves, we can't guarantee that each fragrance is hypoallergenic. However, you may be able to find this information by researching specific brands or fragrances that you are interested in. Sorry for any inconvenience caused by our cancelation process! The only reason we ask customers to contact us for the cancelation process is to gather data about what in their experience caused them to want to cancel their subscription. And if there is anything we could've done better. If you haven't heard from us yet, feel free to DM us via Instagram, and we'll make sure to resolve everything for you. Thank you!
Scentbird is definitely one of the better monthly subscription services to join. I have been nothing but happy with all the different colognes I received so far and look forward each month on what's still to come.
Hi William, thank you for all your love and support! We really appreciate your positive feedback! ❤️
This is a great subscription to either find your signature fragrance or to keep it always fresh. Everyone I know always knows me for having cologne on and it was always my dads. When he started to catch on I had to stop but people started to ask where my cologne was. After hearing about scent bird on Facebook years ago I wanted to try it but a recent YouTube ad reminded me of it so I joined immediately and it has been one of the best decisions on my life now I get questions like, "which one do you have on this month? Because I like it"
Hi Amarion, we're so happy to hear that you're enjoying your subscription! We count ourselves very lucky for having customers like you in our community ❤️
I signed up for subscription first fragrance never arrived it's been over 30 days they have no customer service nobody responds to emails and they have no phone number it's literally impossible to get in contact with them then they charge me again for the next month when I didn't even receive the first month I went ahead and cancelled service is terrible
Hi Monique, so sorry to hear that you haven't received your order. Rest assured that we always send all of our customers' orders. If for some reason orders are missing, we're always open to assisting in finding or replacing these orders. You just need to contact us our Social Media channels: DM us via Instagram or PM us via Facebook so we could help you out. Looking forward to your message!
Keep away. They offer no refunds even if they charge you and fail to ship out your items. They are extremely inconsistent with delivery times. One month you could receive your product on time and the next month not receive your product at all. You won't get any help from their automated response email from customer service. Honestly I'm surprised that this company doesn't have more lawsuits against them than they already do. Charging someone's account and then never sending the product is theft! Stay away
Hi Angel, thank you for your review and I’m sorry to hear you had such a frustrating experience :( But, we really appreciate you bringing this issue to our attention! In the last few months, our team continued to improve our shipping processes & communication to our customers and still thrive to achieve excellent service despite difficulties. In addition, we have been in the process of implementing several other changes to be more focused on providing excellent customer service. Feel free to send us an email at socialsupport@scentbird.com if you have further feedback or comments. Thanks for bearing with us!
Sometimes u wait up to a month over the time expected to get ur monthly order. I had an October scent come in at the end of November so they missed one month saying they will give me 5$ off no refund for my month that never arrived.
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). In addition, because our fragrances are considered Hazardous Materials, the shipments can take up to 10 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.
I tried scentbird to support one of my favorite podcasts and it was a complete waste of time and money. After waiting over two weeks for my first months supply (which is about the size you would get for free from any department store) I opened my package to find over half of the tiny bottle broken and spilled within the envelope. And the fancy sprayer, that seems to be their main marketing point, was already flaking and falling apart. I paid the trail price of $9 but I can not believe that people actually pay $15 dollars a month for this subscription. They already have a very limited selection and from what I've gotten, you're only going to get half of what you pay for.
Hi Zachary, we're so sorry that your items arrived this way :( We hope that you were already given replacements for your leaked/broken vials and rest assured our quality assurance team is doing their best to prevent vial leakage most especially during the shipping process. If you ever have any questions, concerns or feedback, please email us at socialsupport@scentbird.com. Thanks for bearing with us!
I have had my subscription for a few months and they have done nothing to subtract from their initial effort to earn my money. All these companies give you a great initial purchase, even scentbird gave me a free gift. But what makes scentbird better than all the rest of these copycats is that after the first month they still ship on time, they get your order right, product quality maintains at a high level, shipping updates and tracking are sent directly to my email and that makes for an easy no log in check up on the shipping details.
They also have a nice product sorting search filter that allows me to select the best cologne for me.
So you can smell expensive, good or fresh depending on the situation or person you are trying to attract.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this amazing review, Greg! We're so pleased to hear that you're enjoying your subscription!
I absolutely love wearing perfume. I never wear just one because I enjoy creating custom scent experiences. High quality perfumes are expensive. It's risky to try new scents if you have to purchase the full size. Scentbird is a great way to discover new fragrances in a way that is very budget friendly. The size is enough for at least five uses even if you like a "heavy pour". You can place your subscription on hold if necessary, which is a consideration many people will find helpful. I highly recommend this service to anyone who loves fragrances like I do.
We're sooo happy to hear that you're enjoying your experience, Antoinette! ❤️ Thank you for sharing!

Answer: Hi Kambra Apologies for the confusion caused. The price of a 2pcs/6-month fully paid subscription is $135 :) We hope this helps!
Answer: I am frequently asked what perfume I am wearing. It's nice to change things up. My husband has liked all but one of the scents I've received. I LOVE getting a different scents every month. Perfumes smell very different on different people so it's interesting to smell the difference between a perfume on myself versus that same perfume on my daughter but I absolutely love this entire concept and the business is top-notch as it pertains to the customer service and the expedited shipping to ensure that the product arrives when it is supposed to.
Answer: I have tried Scentbox. They are about the same price for a little less volume.
