Terms of Use
Saving Scents Effective date: October 22, 2026
These terms are an agreement between you and Mason Brunson, an individual ("we", "us"), who runs Saving Scents: the iPhone app and the website savingscents.com. You accept them when you tap to continue in the app, create an account, or otherwise use Saving Scents. If you do not agree, do not use Saving Scents. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information.
What Saving Scents is
Saving Scents is free to use. It compares fragrance prices we record from several stores, keeps your Watchlist and gives each Catalog product a Verdict. We are not a store. We do not sell, charge for or deliver fragrances. If we ever add paid features, we will tell you before you are charged anything.
Who can use it
You must be at least 13 years old and live in the United States. If you are under 18, you need a parent's or guardian's permission, and they accept these terms for you.
Use an email address you control and keep your sign-in details safe. You are responsible for activity on your account that you allow. If you think someone else is using your account, email us.
Prices, Verdicts and Retail prices
Please read this section carefully.
- Prices can be wrong, late or changed. We aim to Check store prices once a day, but a Check can be late, miss a Store listing or read a price wrongly. A store can change a price, run out of stock or end an offer at any time. The Lowest price is the lowest price we recorded among the Store listings we cover, for the same size and Condition. It does not include shipping, tax, or offers that need a code, membership or minimum order. Always confirm the price, size, Condition and availability at the store before you buy.
- A Verdict compares recorded prices. A Verdict (Buy now, Fair, Wait or Collecting data) is an automatic reading of the price history we have for that Catalog product. It does not predict future prices, guarantee savings or take your budget into account. You decide whether and when to buy.
- A Retail price is a reference. A Retail price is the highest price a full-price store (one that sells at the brand's price) showed for the product in the last 30 days. We show it only when we have one, and never use a discount store's own "retail" label. We do not verify that the product sells at that price elsewhere. A "% off retail" figure only compares the Lowest price with it.
- Details can be wrong. Names, sizes, Conditions (New or Tester), photos and other product details may contain mistakes. A Tester is not the same as a boxed product, and stores define it differently.
- Alerts can be late or missed. Alerts depend on the daily Check, your phone and your settings. Do not rely on them for anything time-critical.
Stores and buying
When you tap Buy or a Store listing, you leave Saving Scents for the store's website. Any purchase is between you and that store, under its own terms, prices, shipping, returns and privacy policy. We are not a party to it and are not responsible for the store's products, prices, delivery, refunds or service.
The stores and brands shown in Saving Scents do not endorse us. Some stores pay us commissions through affiliate programs (see below); otherwise they have no connection with us. Their names, logos, product names and photos belong to their owners; we use them only to identify products and stores.
Affiliate links
Some store links are affiliate links. If you buy after tapping one, the store or its affiliate network may pay us a commission. We do not add a fee; the store sets the final price. Commissions never change the Lowest price or the Verdict. See our Affiliate Disclosure.
Using Saving Scents properly
Do not:
- scrape, copy or collect prices, the Catalog or other content by automated means, or resell them;
- reverse engineer the app or get around its security or limits;
- overload, attack or interfere with Saving Scents or another Member's account;
- use another person's account, or create accounts by automated means;
- use Saving Scents to break the law or someone else's rights.
These limits do not stop anything the law or an open-source license lets you do.
Your account and ending it
You can delete your account at any time in the app (Account, then Delete account). If that does not work, email support@savingscents.com from the address on your account and we will delete it for you. The Privacy Policy explains what is deleted and what is kept.
We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms or harms Saving Scents or other Members, and we may change or stop Saving Scents at any time. A suspended Member can still ask us by email to see or delete their data.
Our content and yours
Saving Scents, its design, name and logo belong to us. We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable license to use the app and website for your own non-commercial use.
Your Watchlist and settings remain yours. You let us store and use them to run Saving Scents for you. If you send us suggestions, we may use them without paying you.
The iPhone app is also licensed to you under Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement. Apple is not a party to these terms and is not responsible for the app or its support.
No warranties
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THE LAW ALLOWS, SAVING SCENTS IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not promise that Saving Scents will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that any price, Verdict, Retail price or Alert is correct or on time.
Limits on our responsibility
To the fullest extent the law allows:
- we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost savings, lost profits, or the cost of buying something you could have found cheaper, arising from your use of, or inability to use, Saving Scents;
- the most we will be liable to you for all claims about Saving Scents combined is US$50.
These limits do not restrict any right or liability that the law does not allow us to limit.
Changes to these terms
We may change these terms. If a change matters, we will update the effective date and tell you in the app or by email before it takes effect, and we will ask you to accept the new terms where the law requires it. A change applies from its effective date and does not apply to a dispute that arose before then. If you do not accept a change, stop using Saving Scents and delete your account.
Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas and applicable federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Texas, and you and we agree to those courts' authority, unless the law where you live gives you the right to bring it elsewhere. Before filing a claim, we encourage you to email us so we can try to fix the problem.
General
- Notices. You agree that we may send you notices about Saving Scents electronically, by email to your account address or in the app. Send notices to us at support@savingscents.com. This does not change how legal papers must be served.
- Whole agreement. These terms, the Privacy Policy and Apple's license for the iPhone app are the whole agreement between you and us about Saving Scents.
- Transfer. We may transfer these terms, together with Saving Scents, to a company we control or to anyone who takes over Saving Scents, as long as they take on our obligations under them. You may not transfer them.
- If part is invalid. If a court finds part of these terms unenforceable, the rest still applies.
- No waiver. If we do not enforce part of these terms, we can still enforce it later.
- What continues. The sections "Our content and yours", "No warranties", "Limits on our responsibility", "Governing law and disputes" and "General" continue after your account ends, as do any rights or obligations that arose before it ended.
