1. How should I store my fragrance to ensure it stays fresh for a longer time? Ensure your fragrances are stored in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight. For an extended shelf life, keep an opened bottle in its box.

 

2. Can you deliver to APO / FPO addresses? Absolutely! We ship to international destinations, including APO/FPO addresses, via USPS Postal Service. Please note that customs duties and taxes may be collected upon delivery.

 

3. My perfume isn't spraying; is it malfunctioning? If your fragrance isn't spraying, try these steps: Hold a finger against the spray nozzle, pump 10-15 times, remove your finger, pump another 10-15 times, and let the bottle settle. For further assistance, contact us at support@melanatedfundamentals.com.

 

4. What sets eau de toilette apart from eau de parfum? The distinction lies in the concentration of oils. Eau de parfum has a higher concentration, offering a stronger scent. Explore options like pure perfume (highest concentration) and eau de cologne (lowest) based on your preferences.

 

5. Why do some men opt for Cologne while others prefer After Shave? After Shave Lotion closes pores and stings after shaving, while After Shave Balm soothes the skin. After Shave Gel provides a cooling effect and relieves razor burn.

 

6. What do the different fragrance notes signify? Fragrances feature "notes": Top notes (light, lasting a few minutes), Middle notes (emerging after 15 minutes, lasting up to an hour), and Bottom notes (heavier, lasting several hours).

 

7. How do you manage to have discontinued fragrances in stock? We source discontinued fragrances by acquiring entire inventories globally. Our warehouse is equipped with temperature and humidity control.

 

8. Is international shipping available? Yes, we ship to over 200 countries. Utilize our shipping calculator to confirm delivery to your country. Keep in mind that import duties and taxes may apply, varying by country. Contact your local customs office for details.

 

9. What distinguishes a splash from a spray in fragrances? While the fragrance remains the same, the difference lies in application. A sealed spray bottle may have a longer shelf life. The choice between splash and spray is a matter of personal preference.

 

10. Could you explain what a tester is in the context of fragrances? Testers are discounted versions without elaborate packaging. They are 100% authentic, fresh, and full, originally intended for department store counters. Testers may come in a plain white box or without a cap.
