Thank you …

After my previous one star review Pete got in touch with me, he apologised (more than once) and sent me a much larger sample than my original order was for, which arrived very quickly.
So although I was disappointed previously I can’t fault the customer service in quickly rectifying the problem. Thank you.

Perfume didnt smell anything like…

Perfume didnt smell anything like intended perfume
Returned it using their return process which generated a return label.
They claimed they didnt receive it despite having proof of postage it was delivered and wouldnt refund money!

Theyve now replied to this review with absolute lies. I sent proof of return and delivery to them and all they said is to ask evri where they had returned it to. Absolutely ridiculous!!! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY. Crap products and even worse customer service

UPDATE 3. After another 3 days of leaving here our email, no contact from so called buyer, so clearly a fake review to make our company bad.
UPDATE 2. Happy days, the person is actually alive, could you please tell us your order number or at least date of purchase and item you have purchased so that we can find you? We havent had any customer returning any product in last 6 months, anything that would help us find your order would be greatly appreciated as we think you are reviewing the wrong company. Our email is info@smelltoimpress.com

Hi there could you please contact us on info@smelltoimpress.com as we haven't had any fragrance returned from any buyer this year at all so wonder is this review ment for our business at all? Writing at least first name would help rather them PM initials. Thank you in advance
UPDATE: of course after we requested from the person their order number or any other details through Trustpilot they didnt bother even replying to us. Clearly wasnt ment for us or was made on purpose by competition. Trustpilot again useless in not being even able to say who the person is. Anybody can write a bad review about any company and they do absolutely nothing about it because they dont care, all they say is subscribe to one of our plans (which are extortionately expensive by the way)

I was sent a half empty sample

Update: got a response from customer service, who sent a replacement for the faulty item and a free sample with speedy shipping.

I was sent a half empty sample and then ignored by customer service when I complained. I ordered three official samples from smell to impress, including a 2ml of "ylang in gold". Firstly, the order took nearly 2 weeks to arrive (12 days exactly) despite saying it would be sent by first class post. Then when I received and opened the package, I found the ylang in gold sample was literally half empty. The two other samples I ordered were both also 2ml, and it was clear the ylang in gold sample contained less liquid. I sent an email the same day (13th February) with photographic proof and asking for a refund of the ylang in gold sample. I got no answer, so sent another email on morning of 19th February and still have not received a response. Although 2/3 samples were okay, I wouldn't order from here again - they've sold me a used sample as BNIB and then ignored my complaint. Better to just use a trusted decant site.

Highly recommended!

I needed my order quickly and wasn’t sure it would arrive in time - but Pete made it happen!
Fast delivery, great service, and authentic perfumes.

Great purchase, loved my latest perfume.

Arrived on time, excellent packaging, I love being able to try out small sample sizes of designer fragrances before splashing out. Reasonably priced and I can pop it into my handbag and go. I'm grateful for the polite service and fast delivery.

The best ever

Clive Christian’s Town & Country is nothing short of a masterpiece. From the moment I sprayed it, the scent captivated everyone around me. It exudes an air of sophistication and timeless elegance, perfectly balancing fresh citrusy top notes with warm, woody undertones. The composition is both refined and charismatic, effortlessly commanding attention.

Wherever I went, people stopped me to ask, “What are you wearing?” It’s the kind of fragrance that leaves a lasting impression, making you feel confident and distinguished. If you’re looking for a scent that embodies luxury and turns heads, Town & Country is unparalleled.

Original niche men's perfume samples at good prices

I found the niche men's perfumes I wanted and the original samples as well which is even better, with card envelope.
The other good thing with this site is they give you the option of making an offer of you think the price they are quoting is too much.
I gave them an offer £2 less than what my perfumes were listed for and all my offers were accepted.
So I'm very happy with this.

Second purchase

I purchased from them back in 2022, and more samples in 2024. They are pretty good for sampling and comparing before deciding to splurge on a full-size bottle, I also use them for travels.

Did not encounter any problems with shipping and dispatching, items were well-packed too.

Great service, will use again

Used these over the years, great service quick turn around. Exactly what you want when you wan to try a scent but not have to buy a full bottle to do so! Will always use these again.

Im.sorry your tracking says delivered to your exact address. We cant due to privacy reasons copy and paste these here for people to see. Unfortunately we did have few people getting their items and then tried to claim the money back also. To their surprise even their own banks didnt side with them.

Awesome experience!

I wanted a particular perfume but it wasn’t showing on the website. After contacting Smell to Impress, Antonia searched for the sample I wanted, listed it on line and text me several times to let me know what she was doing. WOW! Fantastic service, fast delivery, gorgeous perfume and just an amazing experience. I will only buy my perfumes from smelltoimpress.com from now on. Antonia you are awesome, thank you. 🤩
