Frederic Malle decants & perfume samples — your questions answered
Are Frederic Malle decants and perfume samples authentic?
Yes. Each Scento decant is hand-poured from an original full-sized bottle sourced through authorised European retailers — never a clone, dupe or inspired-by version. Manufacturer batch codes belong to those original bottles and are not printed on Scento decant vials.
How many sprays are in a Frederic Malle sample?
As a rough guide, a perfume atomizer gives about 10–15 sprays per millilitre, so a 2ml Frederic Malle sample is roughly 20–30 sprays, a 5ml about 50–75, and an 8ml about 80–120. Exact counts vary with the atomizer and how heavily you spray. Available sizes: 2ml, 5ml, 8ml.
Do I pay customs or VAT on Frederic Malle samples in the EU?
No extra customs for EU orders. Scento ships Frederic Malle decants from within the EU to 27 European markets, so EU buyers pay no import duties or customs charges and usually receive their order in 1–5 business days. Orders to non-EU European countries may be subject to local import VAT set by your country, not by Scento.
Should I buy a Frederic Malle decant or a full bottle?
Buy a decant to test or rotate a scent, and a full bottle once you know you love it. A 2ml decant is only about 2–4% of a 50–100ml bottle, so it lets you wear Frederic Malle for days before committing to full-bottle price. For sealed presentation or gifting, an official boutique or authorised retailer is the better route.
Which Frederic Malle fragrance should I try first?
Portrait of a Lady and The Moon are the Frederic Malle fragrances our members reach for most, so they are the easiest place to start. If you want to explore further, Portrait of a Lady, The Moon, Acne Studios make a strong first set in affordable decant sizes.
