Scentbird Review & Coupon – July 2016

Scentbird is a monthly perfume and fragrance decanting subscription. With Scentbird you get a thirty day supply of perfume every month – Scentbird takes authentic perfumes and decants them into travel sprayers. There are over 450 fragrances to chose from!

When you join you fill out a profile – including three of your favorite designer perfumes – then you make a wishlist of perfumes you’d like to try. You’ll get a new sprayer every month, plus your first month includes a case to hold whatever perfume you’re currently using! You can add extra cases to an existing subscription for $12.95. Members now receive a $15 credit each month against the purchase of a full-size bottle (note that this credit expires each month).

My mailer came with my fragrance and a card. The sprayer now comes in this neat cardboard tube (it was previously a box).

Scentbird’s Perfume Editors pick a new scent every month to feature.  July’s is MALIN + GOETZ Bergamot; August’s is Carven Le Parfum:

Discover Carven Le Parfum, a fresh floral fragrance from Carven. Simplicity, freshness, and charm are expressed through this couture scent. A burst of spontaneity and gracefulness are carried by Neroli, Mandarin Blossom, and the delicacy of White Hyacinth. A lighthearted floral bouquet is built around a hint of Jasmine and Ylang Ylang, touched with a whiff of Sweet Pea. White Sandalwood and a precious wood harmony create lingering silage of rare purity.

This is the second month in a row that I have added the perfume of the month to the front of my queue. I am a sucker for citrusy scents and just can’t seem to get enough!

You can see all the previous Perfumes of the Month at the bottom of the Scent of the Month page. Note that if your wishlist is empty you’ll get the scent of the month. You can now get on demand scents, but if you’re a subscriber it’s less expensive to get a new one each month and there’s something to be said about giving yourself time to enjoy your new fragrance for a while.

 Your first month will include a little perfume vial case and velvet holder. Scentbird decants the perfume from the manufacturer’s bottle to a little glass vial that fits in the sprayer. The perfumes are 100% authentic and you’ll receive an .27oz sprayer. A card comes with the vial demonstrating its use. You just twist it to spray!

New subscribers receive a sleek black case but other colors are available for an additional cost.

I selected MALIN + GOETZ Bergamot, which was July’s scent of the month. I love me some citrus and so I added this to the front of my queue and I was not disappointed. At first this smells like straight up orange citrus with just a hint of something green and clean in the background. The dry down had a bit of a warm spicy scent to it on my tester that I didn’t smell on my skin. This is a scent that can be worn by both men and women but my husband wanted nothing to do with it. The longevity could be better but that just gives me an excuse to spray a few extra times a day.

Scentbird also provides a quick visual guide to the perfumes. You can get even more details on the different vectors of the scent by mousing over each of the main areas. As you can see this is a citrus bomb and is great for summer since it is kind of light. The scent stuck around for a couple of hours but I had to sniff my arm to make sure it was still there. The value this month was $11.91 which is a little low but since the full size is $150 I consider it a bargain since I wouldn’t be able to spend that much on a bottle of scent.
