Policies

Returns, refunds & cancellation

Fragrance is personal and, once opened, can’t be resold — so we can’t take back bottles because a scent wasn’t to your taste. If anything arrives wrong, we’ll put it right.

Damaged, leaking or wrong items

If your order arrives damaged, leaking, or with the wrong product, write to thescenttheoryin@gmail.com within 48 hours of delivery with:

  • your order number,
  • an unboxing video, recorded from the sealed parcel, and
  • photos of the product and the outer packaging.

Once we’ve checked it, we’ll send a replacement or refund you in full — your choice, subject to stock.

What we can’t accept

  • Returns because a fragrance wasn’t to your liking, or for a change of mind.
  • Bottles that have been opened or used, unless the product itself was faulty.
  • Claims reported more than 48 hours after delivery, or without an unboxing video.

Cancelling an order

You can cancel any time before your order is dispatched — email us with your order number and we’ll refund you in full. Once an order has shipped it can no longer be cancelled.

We may cancel an order ourselves — for example if an item is out of stock, a price was shown in error, or your PIN code can’t be served. If we do, you’ll get a full refund.

Refunds

Approved refunds go back to your original payment method (UPI, card, net banking or wallet) through Razorpay. We start the refund within 2 working days of approval; your bank then usually takes 5–7 working days to show it. We’ll email you when it’s issued.
