FAQs
Do you sell original branded perfumes or recreations?
Both. Our catalog includes original branded fragrances, alongside premium recreations inspired by the world's most iconic designer scents. Each product page clearly labels which category the fragrance falls under, so you always know exactly what you're buying.
How close are your recreations to the originals?
For our recreation line, customers typically report a 90–95% match when comparing side-by-side with the real designer bottle. Some of our recreations even outperform the originals in longevity and sillage on the skin.
What's the concentration of your perfumes?
Our fragrances are formulated as Eau de Parfum (EDP), which means stronger projection and longer wear — typically 6 to 10 hours on the skin, depending on body chemistry and climate.
How long do your perfumes last on the skin?
Between 6 and 10 hours on average, and significantly longer on fabric. For maximum longevity, apply to pulse points (wrists, neck, behind the ears) right after a shower while skin is still slightly hydrated.
Do you ship across Lebanon?
Yes, we deliver across all regions including Beirut, Mount Lebanon, North, South, and Bekaa. Standard delivery takes 1–3 business days.
What's your return policy?
For hygiene reasons, opened or used fragrance bottles cannot be returned. If your order arrives damaged, defective, or incorrect, contact us within 48 hours of delivery with photos and we'll arrange a replacement right away
