We create blends inspired by brand fragrances, upholding the same high quality standards, in order to bring our customers an affordable alternative to their favorite designer perfumes. We are in no way affiliated with the mentioned brands.

By eliminating unnecessary packaging, advertising and prestige pricing that designer brands do, we managed to focus all our efforts on the quality of the fragrance and on delivering the exact same luxury scent, for a fraction of the price. For more information about our pricing check the transparent pricing section.

They are designed to be very long-lasting, just like designer fragrances, in some cases even longer, depending on the composition.

This depends only on your usage habits. On average a 50ml bottle, used one time a day, lasts about 2 to 3 months.

None of our products are tested on animals. Also, all our perfumes are vegan!

If your order contains a pre-order product, please note that we will hold the ENTIRE ORDER until the pre-order item is available to ship.

If you have any questions, please contact our customer service team at help@trydossier.com.au

Returns are always free. You can return any items that you don’t like within 30 days after shipping, and we will refund you the full price. Nevertheless, we don't refund the shipping costs (if you order less than 3 products, otherwise it's free).

If you want to return your item/s, you can send us an email at help@trydossier.com.au or you can write us on Facebook/Instagram.

If you'd like to return your item/s, we can only process this request once. So, you can return as many items as you'd like, but they must be sent in the same return package (under one return label).

Additional notes regarding perfumes

Keep in mind you are always welcome to test out all of our fragrances risk-free. This means you can open our full-size bottle, give it a test, and if you don’t like it, simply ship it back to us.

All returned orders will be sent directly to the following charity: Give Back Box.

Rather than discard barely-used perfumes, we donate our returned perfumes to Give Back Box. This non-profit organization collects items like our perfumes, as well as other discarded items from retailers and unwanted household goods from consumers. Together, these donations create an inventory of helpful items that various charities can benefit from to help carry out their mission (i.e., clothing for homeless shelters, uplifting perfumes for women’s shelters, household goods for families in need, etc.)

Give Back Box has collaborated with more than 60 charities in the USA, Canada, and the UK. We are proud to be one of their donors.

First of all, you need to send the product back to us within 30 days of shipping. We will start the 30-day period from the date of arrival indicated on the tracking code. After this time, no returns will be accepted, and we will not be able to refund you.

You have this option:

- you can start the return process here
- you can send an email to help@trydossier.com.au so that we can help you out.

Layering fragrances means wearing more than one fragrance at a time to create a unique, personalized scent. You can experiment any way you want with your favorite scents, for more information and tips regarding this technique, please refer to our Blog section.

It is recommended to keep perfumes away from direct heat or light and avoid subjecting them to drastic changes in temperature.

Perfume types reflect the concentration of aromatic compounds in a solvent, which in fine fragrance is typically ethanol or a mix of water and ethanol. Various sources differ considerably in the definitions of perfume types.

The concentration by percent/volume of perfume oil is as follows:

- Eau de Parfum (EdP),  Parfum de Toilette (PdT): 10 - 20% (typical ~15%) aromatic compounds. Sometimes listed as “eau de perfume” or “millésime”.

- Eau de Toilette (EDT): 5 - 15% (typical ~10%) aromatic compounds.

We recommend applying your perfume on pulse points  (neck, wrists, behind ears etc.) or simply spritz in the air and walk through so that the scent can envelop you. For more tips and tricks and application methods, you can check our Blog section.

Diffusion refers to the way a perfume applied on your skin reaches the ones around you. A good perfume diffusion is neither distracting or overwhelming, for more information, check out the related articles in our Blog section.

It’s a normal phenomenon called nose fatigue, where the nose desensitizes itself when it gets used to the scent. Even though you can’t feel it, others around you still can so go easy on reapplying the scent.
