Olfactif review

Olfactif is the subscription to pick if you want to sample niche perfume rather than wear one designer scent for a month. Each month it curates a themed collection and ships three or six fragrances in 2 ml glass spray vials, with smell cards to rate each one and interviews with the perfumers. The Women's Box (3 scents that tilt feminine) and the Men's Box (3 that tilt masculine or genderless) cost $22 a month, and the Deluxe Box with all 6 scents costs $40. Prepaying for 3, 6 or 12 months saves 2% to 5%. Shipping is free in the US and costs $9.95 more for Canada, and you can cancel, pause or skip months at any time. The buy-the-bottle step is well covered: subscribers get 20% off the month's featured full bottles and 10% off all other bottles and samples. The tradeoff is that you do not choose the scents and the vials are small, so treat it as a discovery box.
