ScentBird Review- Try it today with promo code LandL15

Is there a science to selecting a scent? Last summer I had the opportunity to review/encounter Scent Bird, a monthly subscription box that lets you smell like a designer bottle of perfume for less than $15- and actually less if you use the promo code LandL15  (lipstick and latte readers get 15% off, pretty awesome, right?)

In the past, I’ve reviewed subscription boxes that hooked me at first but  then continued to go downhill in quality and experience after. It’s like the chemistry was there the first date but the second and the third made me realize it was all an act —but not here! What makes Scentbird a better choice than most of these "surprise" boxes is that you are actually in control of which designer fragrance you want to try, ensuring you're always happy with what you receive. With more than 350 scents to choose from, you can experiment with a new scent every month!

For my review, Scent Bird helped me select the perfect fall perfume that transitions perfectly from summer to autumn—  Miss Dior Le Parum. And I did it all without ever smelling it first-hand until it arrived conveniently at my doorstep. So how is it possible to pick the perfect perfume from afar? That’s the science ScentBird has figured out…. It all starts with a little quiz to personalize what type of scent you prefer.



Here are the suggestions personalized for me below based off of my responses!


Once you have your suggested scents, you can click on them individually and read genuine reviews of the actual product. Even better—and what helped me select the current scent I’m wearing; Scent Bird describes the main notes and season. You can even shop the entire selection of virtually every designer perfume you can image by selecting the season you want to wear it during.




The 8 ml ScentBird perfume easily lasted me a month as promised but one of my suggestions would be to label each bottle so you have options. Since you can select to order every month or just make the purchase as you please from season to season, you can start collecting your designer bottles and alternating scents for occasions. Best of all, they travel super easy so I keep one in my clutch, car, drawer, etc. 

Want to give it a try? Click here, take the quiz, use the code LandL15 and let me know what bottle you get!
