Products & Authenticity

Information about our fragrances, packaging and product experience.

Are the perfumes sold on BrandedPerfumeStore.com authentic?

Authenticity is one of our key priorities. We carefully source the fragrances offered through Branded Perfume Store and maintain quality-control procedures to help ensure customers receive genuine branded products.

Products and orders may also be checked before dispatch to confirm product and order accuracy.

What is an unboxed perfume?

An unboxed fragrance is a genuine perfume supplied without some or all of its standard retail packaging.

Depending on the product, an unboxed item may also come without cellophane or a cap. Any relevant information will be stated in the product description.

Why does the packaging look different from my previous bottle?

Perfume brands may periodically update packaging, bottle designs, labels, boxes, batch markings or other presentation details.

Small packaging differences do not by themselves indicate that a fragrance is inauthentic.

Why does my perfume smell different from an older bottle?

Fragrance perception can vary because of skin chemistry, climate, humidity, storage, application method, batch variations and individual scent perception.

A fragrance can therefore smell or perform slightly differently compared with a bottle you purchased previously.

Do you guarantee how long a perfume will last?

No fixed longevity can be guaranteed because fragrance performance varies from person to person.

Skin type, temperature, humidity, fragrance concentration, application amount and other factors can influence longevity and projection.

Can I return a perfume because I do not like the smell?

Subjective scent preference is generally not an eligible reason for return.

Perfume is highly personal, and preferences can vary considerably between individuals. Please review our Return & Refund Policy before purchasing.

Shopping

Orders & Payments

Common questions about checkout, payment options and promotions.

What payment methods do you accept?

Depending on your location and checkout configuration, available payment options may include:

  • Visa
  • MasterCard
  • American Express
  • Mada
  • PayPal
  • Tabby
  • Tamara

The payment methods available for your particular transaction will be displayed during checkout.

Why is Tabby or Tamara not available for my order?

Tabby and Tamara independently determine transaction eligibility according to their own approval criteria.

Availability may depend on factors including customer location, order value and your account with the relevant provider.

Can I cancel my order?

Contact us as soon as possible if you need to cancel an order.

If a paid order is cancelled before dispatch, a 3% transaction fee may apply where permitted, covering non-recoverable payment-processing charges.

Different charges may apply once an order has already been dispatched.

Can I change my order after placing it?

Please contact customer support immediately. We may be able to assist if the order has not yet been processed or dispatched.

Once an order has entered fulfillment or has been shipped, changes may no longer be possible.

Do you offer discount or promotional codes?

We may offer promotional codes, seasonal offers, special campaigns and other discounts throughout the year.

Individual promotions may have their own expiry dates, minimum spend requirements, product exclusions or other conditions.

Can I use more than one promo code on an order?

Unless specifically stated otherwise, only one promotional code can be applied to an order.

Delivery

Shipping & Delivery

Processing times, tracking, insurance and international orders.

How long does it take to process my order?

Orders are generally processed within 24–36 hours during weekdays.

High-volume periods, sales campaigns and public holidays may result in additional processing time.

How long does UAE delivery take?

Once dispatched, UAE orders are generally delivered the same day or the next business day depending on the delivery location, courier availability and other conditions.

Do you offer international shipping?

Yes. Branded Perfume Store offers international delivery to selected destinations.

Delivery options, availability and charges depend on the destination and are displayed during checkout where available.

How can I track my order?

Once your order has been dispatched, you will normally receive shipment confirmation containing a tracking number.

Courier tracking may take up to 24 hours after dispatch to become active.

Will I have to pay customs or import duties?

International shipments may be subject to customs duties, VAT, import taxes, clearance charges or other fees imposed by authorities in the destination country.

Such charges are generally the customer's responsibility unless specifically stated otherwise at checkout.

Should I purchase shipping insurance?

Where shipping insurance is offered, we recommend selecting it at checkout.

Insurance may provide additional protection against eligible loss or damage while your parcel is in transit.

What should I do if my shipment arrives damaged?

Keep the product, original box, shipping carton, protective packaging and courier label.

Take clear photos or videos and contact: support@brandedperfumestore.com as soon as possible.

What is shipping shock or mail shock?

A perfume may occasionally smell weaker, sharper or slightly different immediately after transportation.

This temporary effect is commonly referred to as shipping shock or mail shock.

Allow the bottle to rest upright at normal room temperature for approximately 24–72 hours.

After Sales

Returns & Refunds

Important information regarding return eligibility and refund processing.

When is a perfume eligible for return?

Returns may be accepted under specific conditions, including when:

  • You received the wrong product.
  • The product received materially differs from what was advertised.

All requests remain subject to the conditions in our Return & Refund Policy .

How long do I have to request a return?

Eligible return requests must generally be submitted within 7 calendar days of receiving your delivery.

Can I return an opened or sprayed perfume?

Eligible returned products generally need to remain unopened, unused and in their original condition with applicable seals and packaging intact.

Opened, sprayed or used fragrances may not qualify for return except where mandatory law provides otherwise.

Can I return an item because I changed my mind?

Change of mind is generally not accepted as a return reason because fragrances are personal-use products and may be sealed.

What if I receive the wrong perfume?

Contact our customer service team within the applicable return period and provide your order number together with clear photos or video of the item and packaging.

We will review the request and provide instructions if the product qualifies.

Are there fees for cancellations or returns?

Depending on the circumstances and where permitted, applicable deductions may include:

  • 3% transaction fee
  • Original shipping cost
  • Return shipping cost
  • 20% restocking fee

These deductions may not apply where the return results from an error attributable to Branded Perfume Store or where prohibited by applicable law.

How long does a refund take?

Once the returned item has arrived, passed inspection and the refund has been approved, refunds are issued to the original payment method.

Please allow up to 14 business days for the amount to appear, depending on your bank, card issuer or payment provider.
