Authenticity
The real thing, in a smaller bottle.
A decant is only worth buying if it's genuine. Here's where every bottle comes from, what happens to it, and what's printed on your label so you can check.
- House and name
- Exactly what's inside. No "inspired by", no dupes.
- Size and strength
- 2, 5 or 10ml, and whether it's eau de toilette, eau de parfum or parfum.
- Batch code
- Matches the full bottle it was drawn from. Ask, and we'll send a photo of that bottle and its box code.
- Decant date
- The day it was filled. We decant to order, so it's usually the day before it's posted.
Where the bottles come from
Full, sealed bottles from authorised UK retailers and department stores. Never testers, never grey-market stock, never anything we can't show a receipt for.
How it's decanted
Each atomiser is new glass. A clean glass syringe draws the fragrance straight from the bottle, and the atomiser is sealed and labelled straight away. Nothing is added and nothing is diluted. The full bottle never leaves the room.
Delivery
Posted tracked the next working day, usually arriving in 2 to 3 working days. Free over £30. UK only: fragrance is a flammable liquid, so it can't go abroad by post.
Returns
Unopened decants can be sent back within 14 days. If something arrives leaking, broken or wrong, message us with a photo and we'll replace it.
