Eligibility

You need an email address to place an order, and you may need to set your browser to accept both cookies and pop-ups in order to be able to use all the functionalities of the Website, which includes adding products to your shopping cart and submitting your order.

To place an order you must be at least 16 years old, or older if that is required under applicable law to enter into agreement with Fragrance.com and you must be a consumer - not a reseller.

Ordering

The products offered on the Website represent an offer to purchase products from Fragrance.com International ( Fragrance.com ) based on the data provided on the Website.

All prices indicated are EUR amounts (as indicated) and include value added tax. Orders and deliveries are possible only within Netherlands. If Fragrance.com is not able to execute an order, Fragrance.com will inform you as quickly as possible. Orders are accepted only in quantities usual for households. For more information about ordering, please check Order Information.

When you submit an order, we will send you an email acknowledging receipt of your order ("Order Confirmation"). This does not mean that we have accepted your order. Our acceptance of the order takes place when the products are shipped to you – we will send you an email confirming that the products have been shipped ("Shipping Confirmation").

At this point a contract, containing these General Terms and Conditions, comes into existence and is binding on you and us (the “Contract”).

Products on the Website are generally in stock and ready to be sent. Any sizes that are out of stock are marked as unavailable. We may have stock issues when customers order products at the same time. When we are unable to ship an item already ordered, we may cancel or reject that part of your order and you will be reimbursed or not charged accordingly. We work hard to keep our stock levels as accurate as possible. Occasionally, errors may occur. Our online collection is regularly replenished so it's worth checking back with us regularly.

If you have placed an order in error, or would like to cancel an order before it is delivered, please immediately call Fragrance.com customer service at 085-8081250 (standard rates, prices per mobile may vary) or e-mail Fragrance.com at: contact.nl@fragrance.com. Fragrance.com will do its best to assist you any way it can. As Fragrance.com always strives for quick deliveries, it means there is not much time to cancel your order before delivery.

Please note that we cannot make or accept any changes to your order (address, size) once your order has been placed.

Fulfilment of all orders on the Website is subject to availability. We explicitly reserve the right to cancel your order for any legitimate reason, including but not limited to the following situations:

  • The product is not available
  • Your billing information is not correct or not verifiable
  • Your order is flagged up by our security systems as an unusual order or an order susceptible of fraud
  • You are under 16, or you are otherwise not of the age permitted under applicable law to enter into an agreement with Fragrance.com
  • You are a reseller
  • We could not deliver to the address provided by you
  • Due to circumstances or events beyond our control.

Delivery and Retention of Ownership

Delivery

As a rule, delivery time is between 2 and 7 working days based on the destination country after shipping the order. See our delivery information for more details including our delivery rates (if applicable).

If the delivered products have obvious material or production defects, including damage caused by transport, please notify us of such defects immediately by email or phone. Not doing so will not affect your legal rights.

All products purchased on the Website may be returned within the following time frame at your own risk: within 30 days after the day on which the product(s) come into your physical possession (or into the possession of a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you).

If you cancel your order, we will reimburse you all payments received from you, including the costs of standard delivery and administration fees (if applicable), without undue delay and in any event not later than 30 days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to return the products.

Returned products must be returned in the state in which you received them: the returned products must be complete, unopened and have all the product labels and codes intact, and must not be used in any way.

To facilitate the returns process, with each delivery and/or Order Confirmation we will provide you with (i) return information, (ii) a link to an online return form, or a printed return form, and (iii) a return label. Please stick the returns label to the box and if using the box that we sent to you, make sure that the return label covers the original label used to ship the parcel to you. Your return will be handled by the carrier mentioned in your return form. Please read our return information carefully.

Refunds

Once your returned products have been checked and inspected, you will receive a refund e-mail notification, if a refund will be made.

Refunds usually take up to 8-10 working days to appear on your statement. The length of time depends solely on your card company’s policies. You can always check your refund status on your online account or by contacting your card issuer.
