Frequently asked questions

What is VelvetScent AI?

VelvetScent AI is a free, static perfume discovery site published by BLAZE. It covers perfume, cologne and fragrance only. It is not a shop.

Are your links affiliate links?

Not yet. We only label a link as an affiliate link once a programme has approved us. TRY A SAMPLE goes to our samples guide or, where we have found one, a house’s own official discovery set. Buy Full Bottle goes to the brand’s official page. Those links are unpaid and are not marked sponsored.

Do you sell samples or full bottles?

No. We point you toward sampling first, then to the official brand page for a full bottle. We do not take payment on this site.

Where do the notes come from?

From official brand pages, checked on 10 November 2026. If a house publishes a top / heart / base pyramid, we show that pyramid. If it publishes notes in another wording, we keep that wording and do not invent tiers. Each profile cites its source and verification date.

Why are some fields missing, such as price, sillage or longevity?

Because we will not guess them. Price tier, sillage and longevity appear only when a real source states them, with a citation. We also do not show prices, ratings, review counts or urgency messages.

How does the quiz work?

It runs entirely in your browser. Six questions, with results filtered live — mainly by olfactory family and vibe, then by season, concentration, presentation and house style. You can share a results link that restores your answers. Nothing is stored on a server of ours.

Who can wear these fragrances?

Anyone who likes them. When we say a scent is “often presented as” men’s or women’s, we are repeating a common marketing label, not a rule. Some houses list scents as unisex or gender-free, and we say so.
