ScentMatchers review: refund policy 23

My Mother ordered from this company in January 2016. She was dissatisfied and returned the Product. She got me involved with it, because she has yet to see her credit card receive the refund which is 134.00 and some change. When she returned it all the information went back with it. Now they say they never received it and by looking at the reviews, that seems to be their standard excuse...Did not get the Product back...Makes me very upset that they have taken my Mother for this money! Lesson to Everyone...Read the customer reviews before doing business with a Company

Eduardo Angeles, Millbrae, CA [protected] item Escada for man classic my question is ; It's the only escada for man perfume you sale ? because the perfume I shop from you 2015, isn't the same .

I have been purchasing custom perfume from Scent Crafters since 2012. Up until my last order, the perfume was great. It had been about 6 months between orders and I placed a $289.00 order. Delivery was slow as always, but this batch of perfume was horrible. Smelled nothing like the perfume that I had been ordering previously...smelled as though old base perfume was used. The color was no were near the color of the perfume from the previous orders. Contacted Jennifer in customer service...same MO..."I apologize you are not happy with your order. I had double checked and we sent you the exact same fragrance. To me the pink looks the same as well, maybe a slight shade off but these are hand made low quantity goods so some slight variation is to be expected." Responded to Jennifer's email to assure her that they were not the same...offered to send a bottle from the earlier purchase along with a bottle from this purchase for comparison by QA department...She completely quit responding to my emails. I have sent 2 more emails with no response. My only alternative at this point is to file a claim with the Better Business Bureau. Adam Schultz if you are reading this, I hope that you understand how utterly disappointed I am in your companies ethics!

I am waiting for my order that I ordered after Christmas. if what everyone is saying is true then I have lost another 60.00 to a scam. This will make two such scams that I got myself into. You would think I would learn, wouldn't you? Betty

how do youfind out where to return for refund.?!

I ordered a copy of the Bare Escentuals Pikake scent. I will attest to the fact that I received it in about 2 weeks but it smelled nothing like the scent I had ordered. There was no paperwork inclided to return it, so I emailed it and they gave me a number to put on the address label. I enclosed the email plus a copy of my order email and returned the bottle to them. It's been 3 months and no refund! They are horrible and I am sorry I ever did business with them.

To be fair to this company I must comment that Scent Masters responded immediately when I contacted them and were polite and honest. After ordering I wrote that I doubted that their product would meet my expectations. They instantly voided the charge. Good business ethics.

ScentMasters.com today is April 18, 2013, i too have received a totally wrong order. I was willing to provide a sample but they never asked for it. i purchased $ 84.00 worth of what i was hoping would have been close to the fragrancei was seeking. Not even near close. i emailed their customer service, as their phone message indicates to do.. Soo, when i emailed to inquire about a return, their email -- verbatim said>>
Hello, I would suggest contacting the company you ordered from. . . Julie Henry customer service manager, scentcrafters.com, Brilliant Enterprises llc
In addition, i had emailed them prior to makeing the purchase to assure they would be able to copy the fragrance.
They emailed back saying they could help me, but when i emailed for a return, this was suddenly the wrong email address? well thank goodness for credit card customer service. Anybody want some really bad smelling perfume and lotion?

I agree with everyone on here. I have not actually ordered from scent matchers but i was hesitatant to order so the box where you put the perfume name i put the word scam in the box just to see what it said and what do you know it said it found my scent! you can put in jumbled letters for the manufactorers name and jumbled letters for the scent name and it still says it found a match. This website is definately a scam

wow-glad I checked here before ordering from this company...I just filled out an order for Accenti by Gucci but decided to check for any customer service issues before giving them my credit card information...I don't think I'll be ordering anything. ~ "FragranceFree"

Thank you for the Lolita information, Stinkbomb. My issue was resolved, having occurred in 2009, sounding or, I should say, smelling like your "match"! I still get messages in e-mail from Complaints Board regarding this subject!

Jossi, you probably don't realize that the Lolita Lempicka fragrance in the apple-shaped bottle has come out with several limited edition flankers. The 2008 version was the one I was referring to and ordered from ScentMatchers. As I mentioned, I live in France, and LL is a French designer. I also happen to work indirectly for the cosmetics industry, in addition to being a perfume lover (and this limited edition version was by far my favorite for the time my bottle lasted), so I have some idea what is available on the market and what is not. Besides, considering the way this company operates, the actual fragrance I ordered is hardly the issue here!

Lolita Lempicka is not discontinued. http://www.fragrancenet.com/lolita-lempicka-perfume/lolita-lempicka/womens-fragrances/wf/en_US/01526?cur_letter=L

Scentmatchers is definitely a scam. The fragrance they sent smells NOTHING like my beautiful, discontinued Lolita Lempicka that was my signature scent for the time it lasted! How dare they at Scentmatchers claim that what they sent me - the fluorescent pink puke that smells cheaper than the worst bargain basement stuff you'd find at Walgreens - even closely resembles it! I've never smelled anything so awful that claims to be perfume! Despite Mr Schultz's eloquent defense above, this company's unethical, amazingly crooked practices have obviously not changed one iota. I live abroad but go to the US for the Christmas holidays. I ordered my fragrance in early November, sure that it would be waiting for me by December 19 when I arrived. Just before my return back to Europe in January, I sent them an email, to which they replied they were still waiting for an ingredient and would send it on January 17. I was so eager to own my lovely fragrance again, that I asked them to send it to me here in France, so they charge me a whopping $19 on top of the shipping I'd already paid for for the US shipping. NINETEEN DOLLARS for a tiny package that fit in my mailbox. I finally received it yesterday, January 28. I promptly tried it. It stank so bad, I had to take off the sweater where I'd spritzed it. Disgusting. I literally couldn't have it on me. I immediately sent an email to Jennifer Monroe, who said they'd refund the $59.99 but not the shipping, for which I paid upwards of $25! Pathetic. I will be sending it back on Monday, and if I get a refund quickly, I will not take legal action. I get legal help for free. This company deserves a class action suit and to be put out of business immediately! I've never been so blatantly ripped off in my life! Please, Mr Schultz, if you have any grain of decency in your body, close this company!

I just want to know that if this company is legit then why is it that when you put in the fragrance "Bird [censor]" made by Smelly [censor] that it comes up in the website's data base as "FOUND MATCH"?

I agree completely that this company has no ethics! My story is the same, wanted to find a great Christmas gift, asked specifically if it could be done in time, was told yes, emailed them 2 days ago and was told that it would be shipped Jan 4th and that it was my fault because I did not order earlier. From what I can see now that I have looked through some previous complaints, this was to be expected.
I asked for a refund (did not even want to try and deal with returning something with them so I can't comment on the actual product). They did send a confirmation of the cancellation, we'll still have to see.
And Adam, the new Customer Service Manager that was hired, Jennifer Monroe, does you no better. Customer service implies just that, service, not rude blame shifting because she couldn't do what she originally stated she could!
STAY AWAY!

Absolutely. I completely agree with everyone that has been ripped off by this company. They may SAY they have made things right, but when they don't return your $200 SAMPLE when they promised to, they have STOLEN $200. See how this works, Adam? Same thing as not returning your money or sending your product after we have to go to the attorney general's office and make complaints. It takes us OUR time and effort and frustration. Legally, what you do is a felony and if you are found by your real name, you can be prosecuted and punished by law.

Well now, Adam, you sound so nice. The testimonials you speak of are for Scentcrafters, not Scentmatchers, which is where I got ripped off. From what I've read, Scentcrafters makes new scents and Scentmatchers trys to match discontinued scents. The fact that you used the cops and the FBI as your positive testimonials speaks volumes. Scentmatchers ripped me off. I have done everything in my power to get my money back but in doing so, I have spent much more with no return. Your posting doesn't address the issue. The issue is that many people have sent your company what little they had left of their coveted perfume, waited over 6 weeks (sometimes longer) to have it matched, only to receive a bogus smelling scent, then have sent it back never to hear from you again. I have also read where you have been accused of selling customer email addresses to other companys.
If you trully wanted to make it right, Adam (if that is really your name), contact all the people you ripped off and make it right. Otherwise, all of this is just more talk & promises that we've all heard before.

if i can't get the product then atleast give me back my POSTAL MONEY ORDER!

it is going on 2 weeks, WHERE IS MY PRODUCT?
or mail back my POSTAL CHECK.

I have had cordial e-mails with Adam Schultz and he stood by his word, as reflected in his recent posting. I commend him for doing such.

Alexis, you are not the only person this same scenario has happened to. There is a gentleman named Alex who has been corresponding with me. I am going to be filing a complaint with the Michigan Attorney General and the U.S. Postal Service, as this could classify as mail fraud. Here are the two links:

OMG me too! I HATE this company, don't ever ever EVER buy from SCENTMATCHERS.COM. Not only did they claim on their homepage that they've created the exact perfume I was ordering, but I was charged immediately for my order and it took 9 WEEKS to recieve my package. It smelled nothing like what a ordered, a discontinued Issey Miyaki perfume. It was such a let down to wait 9 weeks for something that smelled totally gross. During the 9 week waiting period I emailed customer service about 4 times trying to be patient. Lance and Adam were names of people that emailed me back that said my order was proving hard to duplicate. I said then why did you advertise that you've matched this exact scent on your home page? no response of course. Once i recieved the discusting bottle of perfume, I emailed them once more, and their answer was we're sorry your unhappy with your order, when was it placed? I gave him the date, and reminded him that we'd been in touch and it took them 9 weeks to send it to me and he responded back with. "sorry, our return policy is 30 days after purchase." I just emailed back are you kidding me!? How could i return something i didn't even have yet!? How is that in any way a return policy that makes sense. I swear to god they take so long to run out the 30 day period and your just stuck with a nasty smelling bottle of crap perfume. I'm so pissed i want to report them so no one else goes through this but i don't know where to go to do that. Discusting service, if your smart, you'll stay away from them, if your trying to find something discontinued like i was, hopefully you'll find what your looking for on Ebay, thats where i was finally successful.
