Try before you commit.

This is a 1ml hand-decanted sample taken from an authentic full-size bottle. It is repackaged independently into a glass vial for sampling purposes only. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by the original brand.

Decantified is an independent reseller and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by any fragrance house or designer. Brand and fragrance names are trademarks of their respective owners and are used only to identify products and describe scent comparisons.

What's in the vial

Every size is hand-filled from the original retail bottle. 1ml is a glass sample vial — roughly 10–12 sprays, enough to wear the scent for two or three days and see how it sits on your skin. 2ml, 5ml and 10ml come in refillable spray atomizers you can carry.

Will it smell like the original?

Where we name a designer reference, this fragrance was built in its image — close, not identical. Expect the same character and a different opening, drydown or longevity. The link above takes you to every other interpretation of that reference, and when we stock the genuine original you can decant both and decide for yourself.

Shipping, protection & free gifts

Orders ship by USPS Ground Advantage within 1–3 business days and usually arrive 2–5 days later. Spend $45 and we drop a free decant plus a mystery decant into your parcel — and shipping is free on orders $49+.

Add Route shipping protection to your order and a lost, stolen or damaged parcel is covered: file a claim with Route in a couple of taps and they handle the reorder or refund.

Genuine, guaranteed

Everything we sell is decanted from an authentic bottle bought from the house or an authorised distributor. Nothing is diluted or altered. If anything arrives damaged, leaking or missing, email us with a photo of your order sheet and we'll make it right.
