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.
It’s been a while since a discovery set has brought as much joy and big smiles to my face as this one. Every single one is expertly crafted, evocative of good times in different scenarios, and just pure fun. Yes the little bottles can be a little difficult to open, but I think the contents are well-worth the effort. Highly recommend for anyone who’s searching for something purely for their own enjoyment.
This is a great intro to niche fragrances. If you want gourmands that aren't just vanilla, or sugar this is a great starting point. If you're the type of person who likes to smell good for yourself, then this is for you. There's not much projection, but I like that. It keeps the scents from being overwhelming.
a fun, gourmand leaning sample set! I purchased a full sized bottle of Rital Date earlier this year and I've been addicted to the savory pesto note (perfect for warmer days + italian dinners) and was excited to try out the rest of the Versatile Paris fragrances. My other favorites in this set are Sea, Sud & Sun, Dimanche Flemme, and Guele de Bois. I found all of the scents to be fairly unisex and evoked unique vibes/situations. Croissant Cafe's coffee and tonka notes smell as if you've sat in a french cafe all morning, yum. As others mentioned, longevity is not the best and the vials can be a little difficult to open, but I like that they're oils and a little goes a long way. Love what Versatile is doing!!
Hard to open, but the scents were very interesting!
The scents are lovely, but the vials are tiny and the scents do not last very long on the skin. Overall disappointing.
