Salt
From Scent Trunk
The heat of the sun co-mingles with the desert salt. Tiny beads of dew evaporate softly from the crisp desert night as the sun flashes upon the salt flats. Wind whips across a flat untouched terrain. This scent drifts as it dances on your skin.
From Perfumer Rachel Latimer
"We ventured out on a Midwest tour to see different landscapes. It was around 3 am when we pulled into the Utah Salt Flats. It was us, the moon, and miles of glowing white land. The night air was fresh; perfectly warm accompanied by salty breezes. We slept with all the doors open so when we woke, our skin was lightly coated with salt. The silence and beauty felt alien in comparison to the suburbs of city life. This fragrance is a reflection of the feelings associated with that night."

Returns
We do not accept returns of perfumes, simply because perfumes can't be resold once they've been opened and used. We encourage you to order samples before purchasing full bottles of perfume. And here's the good news — with every sample purchased, we'll send you a coupon code that allows you to redeem the cost of the sample and sample shipping if you buy a full bottle of the fragrance you tried (in other words, you get $10 off).
Please contact orders@ministryofscent.com if you have a question or issue related to your order or shipping.
Sample Orders
Samples are designed to help you evaluate scents you might want to later purchase as a full bottle. You may order one sample per fragrance, up to 15 total in a single order. Samples are non-refundable.
For sample orders, please check your packing slip for a special code that will allow you to redeem the price of samples and sample shipping when purchase full bottles of the scents you sample ($10 off full bottles).
Complimentary Samples
We provide complimentary samples with $75+ full bottle purchases. You may request up to 3 samples with any qualifying order. Please use the Order Note section on the Shopping Cart overlay to let us know which complimentary samples you would like. We'll try to provide the scents you've requested, but substitutions may occur if items are out of stock.
This is profoundly sexy. Profoundly. I'm attracted to myself now. It's soft, a bright ocean scent wrapped in a cloud.
This is a nice aquatic scent, but it certainly leans more masculine. Clean aqua scent. Don't think I would buy another sample or a larger bottle, but it is not a bad scent or offensive, just too masculine for me.
Careful dealing with Dane Fragrance out of Ukiah, California. I paid $24,000 for formulation services with Rachel Latimer (owner). After taking the funds, she informed me that the price had increased and wanted more money. When I declined the and asked for a refund the very next day, she stated that she would retain 40% of the payment—$6,000! She didn’t have my money and said she used it for “business planning” purposes and when I asked her what this was, she gave no answer. Despite her initial friendly and accommodating demeanor, her true intentions became clear once she had my money. Her business practice lacks transparency. Consider taking your business elsewhere.
