Question 1

What is a decant?

Accepted Answer

A decant is a small portion of perfume — typically 2 ml or 3 ml — transferred from an authentic full-size bottle into a glass vial with a sprayer. It lets you live with a fragrance for several wears before committing to a full bottle. LaScentLibrary decants are filled by hand from bottles the owner has personally purchased.

Question 2

Are these perfumes authentic?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every decant is filled from a full-size bottle that the owner has purchased from authorised retailers (boutiques in Cyprus, brand websites, niche-perfume specialty stores). We don't resell concentrates or blends — only the original juice from the original bottle.

Question 3

Where do you ship?

Accepted Answer

We hand-deliver in Paphos, Cyprus, and ship across the rest of Cyprus by courier (typically 1–2 days). For shipments outside Cyprus, please contact us on Telegram @energizer1977 to arrange.

Question 4

How do I pay?

Accepted Answer

Bank transfer before shipping. After you place an order on the site or via Elena (the AI sommelière), we confirm the order and send payment details on Telegram. Once we see the transfer, we ship.

Question 5

Can I get help choosing a fragrance?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the site has Elena, a multilingual perfume sommelière (Russian, English, Greek) who can suggest decants based on what you already love or the mood you're going for. You can also browse by note, by accord family, or by brand.
