How It Works

How Floressence Works

Discover luxury fragrances the smart way. Here's how we make designer and niche scents accessible and affordable.

1. We Source Only Authentic Fragrances

Every fragrance in our collection is 100% authentic and sourced directly from authorized retailers and distributors. We never work with gray market sellers or questionable sources. When you order from Floressence, you're getting the real deal—the exact same fragrance you'd find at high-end department stores, just in a sample size.

Our commitment to authenticity:

  • Direct relationships with authorized distributors
  • Verification of every bottle we receive
  • Proper storage conditions to maintain fragrance integrity

2. Professional Decanting Process

We carefully decant each fragrance into premium 9ml atomizer spray bottles in our Holland, Ohio facility. Our decanting process follows strict quality standards:

  • Clean environment: All decanting is done in a controlled, clean workspace
  • Sanitized equipment: We use professional-grade tools that are cleaned between each fragrance
  • Precision measurement: Each atomizer receives exactly 9ml of fragrance
  • Quality atomizers: We use high-quality spray atomizers that deliver a fine, even mist
  • Proper labeling: Every sample is clearly labeled with the fragrance name and concentration (EDP, EDT, etc.)

3. Why 9ml Is the Perfect Sample Size

We chose 9ml atomizers specifically because they provide the ideal balance:

  • 90-110 sprays per bottle - enough to truly experience the fragrance over 4-8 weeks
  • Multiple wears in different settings - test it at work, on dates, during different seasons
  • Experience the full scent journey - fragrances evolve over hours; you need time to know if you love it
  • Travel-friendly size - TSA-compliant and perfect for your bag or gym locker
  • Affordable exploration - try 5-10 different scents for the price of one full bottle

Unlike tiny 1-2ml vial samples that only give you a spray or two, our 9ml atomizers let you actually live with a fragrance before committing to a $100+ full bottle.

4. Careful Packaging & Fast Shipping

We take pride in how we package and ship your samples:

  • Protective packaging: Each atomizer is individually wrapped and cushioned to prevent leaks or damage
  • Secure sealing: Atomizers are checked for proper sealing before shipping
  • Fast processing: Orders ship within 1-2 business days from our Ohio facility
  • Tracking included: You'll receive tracking information as soon as your order ships
  • Discreet packaging: Your samples arrive in unmarked packaging for privacy

5. Your Fragrance Journey Begins

Once your samples arrive, here's how to get the most out of them:

Testing tips:

  • Spray on pulse points (wrists, neck, behind ears) where your body heat helps the fragrance develop
  • Give it time—fragrances have top notes (first 15 min), heart notes (30 min - 2 hours), and base notes (2+ hours)
  • Test one fragrance per day to avoid scent confusion
  • Try the same fragrance in different settings—work, evening, weekend—to see how it performs
  • Pay attention to how long it lasts on your skin (longevity varies by person)

When you find "the one":
Once you discover a fragrance you love, you can confidently invest in a full bottle knowing exactly what you're getting. You've saved money, avoided buyer's remorse, and found your perfect scent!
