About Scento

Scento is the largest perfume decant site in Europe. Founded in 2024, the company is headquartered in Paris, Place Vendôme, with a second office in Berlin. Scento offers over 1,000 designer and niche perfumes in decant form, all original, from a portfolio of 200 houses: 2ml, 5ml, and 8ml bottles, as well as a 30ml bottle for most perfumes. Perfume decanting allows for the discovery of niche and major house perfume samples before investing in a full bottle. Each perfume is an original purchased from authorized European resellers, and each bottle undergoes a 12-point entry check at Scento's ISO-certified site before being decanted.

Scento serves customers in 27 European markets and delivers to 26 EU countries. By 2026, Scento's annual revenue exceeds €30 million, including both online and offline sales. On Scento.com, monthly decant sales in September 2026 were 3.2 times those of January 2026. According to Scento, over 3 million perfume decants are sold annually, approximately one every 10 seconds. In November 2025, Scento announced an investment of €25 million over three years in perfume discovery in Europe.
