Scent Box March 2019 Review

This month, I received Scent Box’s “Scent of the Month.”

Scentbox March 2019 - Booklet Front

Scentbox March 2019 - Booklet Front

The information card has a little information about the men’s scent of the month on one side and the women’s on the other side.

In case I have not mentioned it in the past, you get a new holder every month and the fragrance is printed on a sticker on the bottom, and the holders tend to be different colors each month, so you can still keep them sorted out.

On to the fragrance:

Poppy Wildflower by Coach – Estimated Value $8.40 (buy 3.4 fl oz for $105.00, found here for $49.99)

For the fourth month in a row, we have received a fragrance that is out of stock everywhere except some discount and overstock retailers and appears to be discontinued. How you take this depends on your perspective, though, because if there is a fragrance you really like that has been dropped by its manufacturer, maybe you can get a backup supply with Scent Box. If you want to avoid discontinued fragrances, just make sure to fill your queue with selections instead of taking the “Scent of the Month.”

This fragrance was first introduced in 2014 but I wasn’t familiar with it, although I’ve tried some of the other fragrances from this line. This is a little more floral than I tend to prefer (not so surprising for a fragrance named after a flower…) but the base notes make up for it a bit; they include some of my perennial favorites such as patchouli, vanilla, and cedar, along with violet and iris. Mid notes are more florals (jasmine sambac, lily of the valley) and peach, and top notes include bergamot, freesia, and mandarin orange.

Despite having two different citrus notes, this isn’t citrusy on me at all. I think the pink pepper and vanilla work with the cedar to make it a bit woody and spicy (especially early on), which are both qualities I like in a fragrance. There is something that’s just a bit cloying and super sweet at the beginning (on me) but this wears down into a fairly standard floral that smells mostly like freesia near the end of the day. This is definitely one that wears differently the longer you have it on.

Verdict: The estimated value of my fragrance this month is $8.40. That is below the cost of the subscription, but your value will vary quite a lot depending on your selections, and of course you are getting a holder every month as well as the ability to make free exchanges if you don’t care for the fragrance you receive (those last two are definitely not offered with any other fragrance subscription). I am a bit indecisive about this one overall but will probably reach for it from time to time.

To Wrap Up:

Can you still get this box if you sign up today?  Yes, all you have to do is choose this fragrance.

Value Breakdown:  This subscription is $14.95/monthly and this month, I received $19.62 worth of fragrance (but again, this is highly variable based on what scent or product you choose).
