You don’t need the words for it.
Some languages have a word for every smell. English has hardly any, so “woody” and “fresh” get you nowhere. Our quiz skips them. Pick the everyday smells you like and we match six to you.

How we’d say it at the pub.
No notes, no pyramids, no “accords”. Here’s what a few of them actually smell like.
Any six for NZ$279, whatever the quiz picks. You save NZ$375.
What turns up.
Six full bottles. Not samples, not testers, not little vials you will lose in a drawer.
We make the whole thing ourselves.
Most fragrance brands order their scent from a lab overseas, put their name on the bottle and wait for the pallet to land.
We don’t. Every Balmain Body scent is blended, bottled and packed at our own place in Marrickville, Sydney.
Every bottle gets looked at by hand before it moves on. Then it sits for a month so the scent settles.
Small batches, so someone actually sees every bottle.
If one isn’t you, swap it.
Email us within thirty days and we will send a different scent instead. We cover the return postage with a prepaid label. You do not need a reason and you do not need the box.
The whole range.
Already know a few you like? Pick your own six from here. Tap any scent to read it and add it. Same one twice is fine.
Two sprays on a card, or a month with the bottle.

Ordered online. Here’s what they reckon.
In their words.
Excellent
“Just the perfect scent for daily wear to the office and my wife loves it on me!”
“I’m actually surprised they smell so good. Took the chance and paid off. Will buy again.”
“Very happy with them all… the wife has commented on all 3, could get lucky”
“When I used this the first time my wife said Yeah, that’s the one.”
“My partner likes it soooo much she told me she is going to throw away all my other fragrances.”
“This scent will get all the heads turning! Wow.”
How it works.
You answer a few everyday questions.
Where you’d wear it, how you dress, the smells you already like. No fragrance words needed.
We pick your six.
Matched against more than five thousand answers from men who told us what they liked.
You wear them properly.
Packed within one to two business days. Then you wear each one for its job and see which you reach for.
Swap what misses.
Email us within thirty days and we’ll send a different scent, or give you store credit. We send you a prepaid label, so the return costs you nothing.
Questions.
I don’t know what I like. Is that a problem?
No. Most blokes can’t name what they like, and the words on fragrance ads don’t help. The quiz asks about smells you already know, like coffee or cut grass, and matches from there.
What if I do not like one of them?
Email us within thirty days and we will send a different scent instead, or give you store credit. We pay the return postage. You do not need a reason and you do not need the box.
Why six and not one?
Because picking one fragrance off a screen is a guess, and you already know it. Six gives you something different to wear day to day, and a month to work out which one is actually you. It is also NZ$279 for the lot, instead of NZ$654.
Can I get samples first?
No. Samples are the thing that does not work. Two sprays on a card tells you how it opens and nothing about how it sits on you an hour later. Full bottles and a free swap does that job properly.
When will it arrive?
Shipping is free, anywhere in New Zealand. We pack your order within one to two business days.
No scent words needed.
