Refund Policy
Damaged, authenticity, and lost-parcel claims
Last updated: July 2026
Change of Mind
We do not accept returns or refunds for change of mind. Please choose carefully before completing your order — orders begin processing immediately and cannot be cancelled or amended once placed.
Damaged or Faulty Items
If your item arrives broken, damaged, or faulty, contact us within 7 days of delivery with photos of the item and its packaging. We'll arrange a replacement or refund.
Shipping Protection
Shipping Protection is an optional add-on at checkout. It doesn't change what you're entitled to — it changes how fast we can resolve it.
What it covers
If a bottle arrives damaged, or your parcel doesn't arrive at all, contact us within 7 days of delivery — or within 7 days of the estimated delivery date if it never arrives — and we'll resend or refund the same day. No claim forms, no investigation, no waiting.
What isn't covered
Damage to the outer box on its own. Boxes take knocks in transit; what matters is the bottle inside. If the bottle is intact and working, the order is considered delivered in good condition. Theft after delivery is also not covered.
Without Shipping Protection
You're still covered — we'll always make it right, and your rights under the Australian Consumer Law apply either way. The difference is speed. Without protection we have to open a trace with the carrier first, which takes 2–3 weeks before we can replace or refund.
Authenticity
Every fragrance is sourced from authorised distributors and carries a verifiable manufacturer batch code. If you believe an item is not genuine, contact us — we will investigate and, if confirmed, refund you in full.
Lost in Transit
How lost-parcel claims are handled — including the difference with and without Shipping Protection — is set out in Shipping Protection above.
Your Rights Under Australian Consumer Law
Nothing in this policy limits or excludes your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the ACL. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure, and to have goods repaired or replaced if they fail to be of acceptable quality.
