About Scentbird
Summary
Scentbird sends monthly 8mL vials of designer fragrances directly to subscribers, replacing the department store counter as the way people discover and try new perfumes and colognes. Subscribers take a quiz to get personalized recommendations, then choose from over 1,100 designer scents each month. Each vial delivers roughly 30 days of use, letting fragrance shoppers trial full-season wear before committing to a full bottle.
Business model

Go-to-market
Targets fragrance enthusiasts directly through a self-serve, quiz-driven onboarding flow on the Scentbird website, with a discounted first-month offer to lower the entry barrier.
