It can be combined with a variety of scents such as woody notes (like Sandalwood, Cedarwood, Patchouli), herbal notes (such as Lavender, Clary Sage), citrus notes (like Bergamot, Orange), and floral notes (such as Geranium, Jasmine).

The listed prices do not include the 8% VAT.

Does Scent have a store where I can try the products?

You can visit Scent's showroom in Ho Chi Minh City to explore fragrances and experience the products firsthand.

However, with the aim of becoming an online provider of fragrance products in Vietnam and Southeast Asia, Scent does not open additional branches. This approach helps optimize costs and allows us to offer you high-quality products at the best prices in the market.

Can essential oils be applied directly to the skin?

Many essential oils need to be diluted before being applied to the skin; otherwise, their high concentration may cause irritation.

Can pregnant women use essential oils?

Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult a healthcare professional before using essential oils, as they can affect hormones and the impact on the baby during development is not well understood.

What is the difference between natural essential oils and synthetic fragrances?

Essential oils are extracted from parts of plants, are entirely natural, and have therapeutic properties. In contrast, synthetic fragrances are created in a lab and contain artificial components.

Scent.vn works directly with reputable global partners, inspecting their facilities and sourcing regions to ensure authenticity. We also conduct GCMS tests on each product to verify its components and quality.

How should essential oils be stored after purchase?

You should store essential oils in aluminum or dark glass bottles, away from sunlight, and at a temperature between 0 to 20℃.

Can I become a distributor of essential oils?

Scent.vn focuses on direct sales to maintain quality control and therefore does not offer a distributor program for this product line. However, you can purchase essential oils in bulk from Scent.vn and sell them under your own brand.
