FAQ

What We Provide
Are these fragrances from the original brands?

Our fragrances are inspired by popular brands, offering customers a
high-quality, affordable alternative. It's important to note that we operate
independently from these original brands. We are in no way affiliated with the
mentioned brands. 

How do you maintainaffordability without compromising on the quality of your fragrances comparedto brand perfumes?

We maintain affordability by eliminating
unnecessary packaging, advertising, and prestige pricing typical of designer
brands. This allows us to focus on the quality of the fragrance, delivering a
luxury scent at a fraction of the price.

Are these fragrances long lasting?

Our fragrances are designed to be long-lasting,
similar to designer fragrances, and in some cases, even longer, depending on
the composition.

Are the fragrances tested on animals?

Our products undergo no animal testing

How long will the fragrance bottle last?

The longevity of the fragrance bottle depends
on your usage habits. On average, a 60ml bottle, used once a day, lasts
approximately 2 to 3 months.

When do I get charged?

You pay for the perfumes upfront. Orders over
$50 qualify for free shipping. You're welcome to test the full-size bottle and
return it if you don’t love the scent. Returns are free, and you can return any
perfume you don’t like within 30 days after shipping for a full refund. Please
note that shipping costs are not included in the refund for orders under $50.
You can also receive a refund for the Ginova Protection fee if your package has
not yet been shipped. However, once your package has been shipped, the
protection fee becomes non-refundable.

Returns
What is your return policy?

Returns are always free.

You can return any items that you don’t like within 30 days of delivery
and we will refund you the full price. Nevertheless, we don't refund the
shipping costs (if you order less than $50, otherwise it's free).

Perfumes
What types of bottleare you using ?

We currently use
60ml glass spray bottles. It's the perfect size for your gym bag, purse, car or
whenever you need to freshen up!

Where should I apply perfume?

We suggest applying your perfume to pulse
points like the neck, wrists, and behind the ears. Alternatively, you can
spritz the perfume in the air and walk through the mist to envelop yourself in
the scent. For additional tips, tricks, and application methods, please visit
our Blog section.

Why can’t I smell my fragrance after awhile?

This is a normal phenomenon known as olfactory
fatigue, where your nose becomes desensitized to the scent after prolonged
exposure. Even though you may not be able to smell it, others around you can
still perceive the fragrance. Therefore, it's best to avoid over-applying the
scent.

What is layering and how is it done?

Layering fragrances involves combining multiple
scents to create a unique and personalized aroma. This technique allows you to
experiment with different combinations of your favorite fragrances. For
detailed information and tips on how to layer fragrances effectively, please
visit our Blog section.

 

How should I store my perfume?

To preserve the quality of your perfumes, it's
best to store them in a cool, dark place and avoid exposing them to extreme
temperatures.

What does EDT and EDP mean?

EDT and EDP are
abbreviations that indicate the concentration of aromatic compounds in a
perfume. In fine fragrances, the solvent is typically ethanol or a mix of water
and ethanol. However, there is considerable variation in how these types are
defined across various sources.

The concentration by percent/volume of perfume oil is as follows:

- Eau de Parfum (EdP): 15 - 25%

- Eau de Toilette (EdT): 5 - 15%

What is the diffusion of a perfume?

Diffusion refers to the way a perfume applied on your skin reaches the
ones around you. A good perfume diffusion is neither distracting or
overwhelming, for more information check out the related articles on
our Blog section.
