We make every effort to display our products and their descriptions accurately. However, the appearance of products may vary slightly depending on your screen settings, and fragrance experiences are inherently subjective.
All product information, including descriptions, scent profiles, longevity claims, and inspirations, is provided for informational purposes. While we describe our fragrances as faithfully as possible, individual experiences may vary based on skin chemistry, climate, and application.

All prices on our website are displayed in South African Rand (ZAR) and include Value Added Tax (VAT) where applicable.
We reserve the right to change prices at any time without prior notice. The price applicable to your order is the price displayed at the time you place the order, regardless of subsequent changes.

In the event of an obvious pricing error on our website (such as a fragrance listed at R10 instead of R349), we reserve the right to cancel the order and refund any payment made, even if the order has already been confirmed. We will notify you promptly if this occurs.
