Nice app yall would make it 100x better if you could actually message seller !!!

Direct Messaging needed!

Potential buyers NEED a way to message sellers directly. Get this feature in place and your platform will be vastly improved! Having buyers go through the platform to communicate with sellers is archaic; like being on dial up and sending faxes instead of email…🙄😅

Great for Buyers, Fees Hurt Sellers

Amazing app overall, especially for buyers. There seem to be a lot of really good deals and the prices are often much better than what you’ll find elsewhere. I haven’t personally bought anything through the app yet, so I’m not sure whether buyers also pay a processing fee.

For sellers, though, it can be difficult to make any sort of money because the processing fees take a pretty large cut from each sale. If the seller fees were lower, I think this app would be even better. Overall, it’s a great marketplace with very competitive prices, especially from a buyer’s perspective.

Do Not Sell Here!

I cannot recommend this platform to anyone selling expensive fragrances.

I sold an Amouage Boundless bottle that I believed to be authentic and documented extensively with detailed photos of the bottle, cap, atomizer, batch code, box, and fill level before shipping. After delivery, the buyer disputed authenticity.

Throughout the dispute, I repeatedly asked what specific issue had been identified with my bottle. Rather than identifying any specific characteristic of the bottle itself, I was ultimately told that their authenticity team had made a final determination based on the “totality of the evidence,” including where I originally purchased the fragrance and information they claimed to have found on eBay.

The experience as a seller was extremely one-sided. Once the authenticity team made its decision, there was no meaningful opportunity to respond or understand the specific characteristics that allegedly made the bottle counterfeit.

I was also informed that my bottle would not be returned unless I paid a $15 return shipping fee. I could not find that requirement in the published Terms or Seller Policy, and when I questioned it, I was simply told the matter was closed.

If I chose not to pay the fee, I was told the bottle would not be returned and that the buyer would be instructed to dispose of it.

My advice to other sellers is simple: understand that if a buyer disputes authenticity, Rescented has sole discretion to make the determination, and the dispute process may leave you with very limited ability to challenge that decision or recover your property.

Based on my experience, I will not be using this platform again.

Best App ever.

Rescented is a great app. Just purchased my 30th bottle in 6 months. Secure payments. Fragrance Fraud protection. It is really like a fragrance family helping each other smell good.

A Lot Off the Top

You are paying for security I suppose. The hope is that the person you are buying from or selling to will be honest, and there is some assurance there. That said, they charge an extra $20 to the buyer for shipping and take %20 from the seller. This affects both the buyer and seller negatively. Buyers will often make a bid and commit to purchasing, but then back out. While this could be for a number of reasons, I do wonder if it’s related to what happens once they see the charge for shipping. Also, there is no way to contact the buyer if you are a seller, or vice-Versa. Additionally, the folks at Rescented require sellers and buyers to use an app to transfer money, which also charges a fee for transferring the money into your bank account. So, a lot of extra people appear to be making a lot of money off of the transactions. Perhaps it is better to stick to other outlets until they adjust their charges.

Great for shopping, horrible for selling

Recently I made a mistake of selling one of my fragrances that covers the juice inside unless you have a bright light against the bottle, and I didn’t take a picture of it. The person who bought from me, I’m certain he took advantage and took some out and put juice in a decant. Now on top of the ridiculous 20% tax, I’m getting $45 deducted from my pay. I’ve previously have sold 2 bottles that have the same situation where the color of the bottle hides the juice, and I had no problems, so I wasn’t expecting something like this to happen. I’ll never sell here again, horrible experience and treatment.

Terrible selling experience

This is not an app for novice sellers who want to get rid of a couple bottles. The amount of hoops they make you go through to sell is ridiculous. Not to mention the poor communication from customer service, and lack of response via email.

horrible

cool idea ig but it constantly crashes after you scroll for a bit with no way to talk to a seller about a product

Charge too much

It’s a good app they just charge wayyyyyy too much on processing fees it’s ridiculous. It’s almost to the point tong why even sell on here if they charge that much for processing.

banned

i was banned for no reason used the app once and there’s no customer support to fix my issue

Great!

Amazing customer support and a great place to get discounted fragrances.

Get fragrances for a cheaper rate with buy and sell options all legit and monitored to ensure no fakes.

Mostly Safe

It’s pretty good, find some great deals but sometimes it’s risky. Other than that prices are great and the selection of fragrances are super good. Wished the shipping wasn’t $15

Authenticity provided

I have to say, as a place to purchase to colognes. This app is very useful, having the ability to talk to real people has also made this first time experience easier.

great marketplace type app

i’ve bought 2 fragrances and all legit and decent shipping time

Great app

Great app for cologne a lot of great cologne for good prices love the app and I am checking it all the time! Great app a must get for cologne people!

Pet Peeve

I love the idea of this app, and I’ve bought a couple of bottles through it with no problems. I highly recommend it if you find the right deal. That said, one pet peeve I have is that some sellers list open bottles, usually around 80–90% full, at prices similar to unopened bottles from retailers — and sometimes even higher than unopened bottles on the grey market. Just saying.
