Our fragrances are designed and bottled locally from Wellington, New Zealand and made in Grasse, France.

Do you offer different bottle sizes?

We currently offer a 30ml size so that our customers can try a range of different scents and not just stick with one larger (and more expensive) option, but we will soon add more sizes into the range.

If you have any feedback about our bottle sizes or range please get in touch at hello@speakscents.com. hello@speakscents.com .

How does the site work?

We ask you a few quick questions to build your scent profile so we can understand your scent preferences. We then use smart matching algorithms to find the best scents for you from our range. You can either try your best matches as samples, or subscribe to your favourite full sized bottles. All subscriptions can be changed for different scents or paused at any time.

If you would like a refund or to swap your scent, please email hello@speakscents.com. Once you receive your scents, you will receive a follow up email asking you to rate your matches. The more feedback we get, the better! Feedback helps our matching algorithm learn and get smarter over time.
