Tinkerer Box
Common questions
Everything you need to know before you start.
Each Tinkerer Box should ship with a printed card listing what's in each sample. If yours is missing or you've misplaced it, email hello@olfactorynyc.com.
Some customers on the at-home journey need more than one Tinkerer Box before they land on their final blend. You can order another Tinkerer Box and make sure to write in the cart notes any specific accords or direction you want to go (e.g., "more woody," "more floral"). If you'd rather see 6 new blends of the same core scent, just say”dont include any of my first blends”
The Explorer Box is the first step in the process. It contains all 9 of our core scents, allowing you to discover which fragrance family you enjoy most. Think of it as exploring the foundation of your future custom scent.
Once you've chosen a favorite core scent, the Tinkerer Box becomes the next step. It contains 6 unique blends built around that core scent, each highlighting different fragrance accords and taking the scent in a different direction. This is where you begin refining your preferences and narrowing in on your final formula.
In short: the Explorer Box helps you choose your favorite core scent, while the Tinkerer Box helps you customize and perfect it before ordering your final 50ml fragrance.
