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.
I bought the Dark Discovery Set for my husband, and this was one of the scents in it. He is now on his 2nd full-size bottle of Flotholt. It's probably the most traditionally cologne-like scent in the set, but it smells so good. Like cool salty sea air. For me, there is also something comforting about it. Sometimes I wear it too.
Good sample sizes for testing new fragrances and not too expensive at $5 for each
I am a diehard Fischersund fan, so I knew I needed this as soon as it was released. This is the smell of going to a bonfire on the beach on the longest night of winter. It goes on very salty and seaweed-y, and as it dries down the smokiness of birch tar comes out. Very strong, but the bergamot note brightens things up enough that it should be inoffensive to most people. Definitely an excellent winter scent as it smells very “cold”.
I was waiting for this scent my entire life. I am madly in love. It smells like a birch tar mixed with sand and fire, but in such elegant way, and it dries down to that soft woody-windy scent of a cold sea beach in November. It's such a well done unique scent.
