Staff Summer Selection Sample Set
To celebrate the coming of summer, our team chose six refreshing favorites for a limited edition Staff Summer Selection Sample Set. The set contains 6 x 1.5ml spray perfume samples. From the Ministry team...
Balmy Days & Sundays: The name says it all. Soft, subtle honeysuckle drifts above clean green grass. Ineke, San Francisco
"Nostalgic childhood cloud-gazing in the Berkeley Hills. A picnic in Tilden Park as spring turns into summer." Antonia, co-owner
Fior di Chinotto: The Italian Riviera. Delicate chinotto blossoms, a spritz of mandarin and drizzle of golden honey. Abaton, Italy
"A radiant, honeyed citrus-floral perfect for warm, sunny days. Wear it with your favorite sundress." Chelsea, Assistant Buyer
Fischersund No. 8:
"Walking through the tall trees and fresh air of an Icelandic forest on an overcast day, sipping fruity citrus tea in a stainless steel thermos. Invigorating." Jorgen, Fragrance Specialist
L'Air Barbès: Cool concrete and stone alleyways. Paris in monochrome, with a splash of citrus and a dash of ink. 19-69, Sweden
"A chalky hot sidewalk freshly sprayed with hose water. Inky pigments washing off paper. Cumin, orris and aldehydes, as if being described by a computer from 2008." Michael Ryan, Fillmore Store Manager
Orange X Santal: Juicy bitter orange, handsome aromatics, grounding woods and oakmoss. Essential Parfums, France
"A crisp and creamy citrus, with verdant herbal facets; a comforting fresh aura that leaves you relaxed and primed for a nap in the summer sun or a lively brunch date." Saúl, Valencia Store Manager
Sonic Flower: A cool, clear blend of orris with just-bloomed jasmine, cashmere woods and skin musks. Room 1015, France
"A clean white cotton shirt drying on the line, over a field of delicate, pale pink flowers." Nick, Senior Fragrance Specialist

Returns
We do not accept returns of perfumes, simply because perfumes can't be resold once they've been opened and used. We encourage you to order samples before purchasing full bottles of perfume. And here's the good news — with every sample purchased, we'll send you a coupon code that allows you to redeem the cost of the sample and sample shipping if you buy a full bottle of the fragrance you tried (in other words, you get $10 off).
Please contact orders@ministryofscent.com if you have a question or issue related to your order or shipping.
Sample Orders
Samples are designed to help you evaluate scents you might want to later purchase as a full bottle. You may order one sample per fragrance, up to 15 total in a single order. Samples are non-refundable.
For sample orders, please check your packing slip for a special code that will allow you to redeem the price of samples and sample shipping when purchase full bottles of the scents you sample ($10 off full bottles).
Complimentary Samples
We provide complimentary samples with $75+ full bottle purchases. You may request up to 3 samples with any qualifying order. Please use the Order Note section on the Shopping Cart overlay to let us know which complimentary samples you would like. We'll try to provide the scents you've requested, but substitutions may occur if items are out of stock.
Amazing. I bought a full bottle of Orange X Santal and Les Barbes.
