Originally
launched in 1928 – relaunched in 1976, and once again in 2018 – Essence Rare is classified as
a light, powdery, aldehyde chypre scent and features top notes of bergamot, aldehydes,
green accord, chamomile, and orange; middle notes of rose, lily of the valley,
geranium, iris, and lily on a base of oakmoss, vetiver, patchouli, sandalwood, Tonka
bean, civet and musk. The item in this listing is the 1970s formulation which
is housed in the iconic “melting icicle” bottle. It is not the third-generation
reformulation (which is a different bottle style) from 2018.
Shipping
Your item will be
carefully packed in a sturdy box. I do not skimp on packing materials. For
special shipping needs, please contact me.
International Buyers
Fragrance products can be shipped internationally via the following reputable international package-forwarding services: Stackry or Aramex (or a service of your choice). To use either recommended service, please visit the applicable website (or download the app), open an account, and register your international address. You will then receive a US address and account number to input at eBay checkout. Both services ship packages in lots (versus individually) to help offset high international transportation costs; so, it will take approximately three to four weeks to receive your package. As a courtesy, I will mail your fragrance purchase for free (with tracking) to the US address you specified during checkout.
Return
Policy
My goal is for you to be pleased with your
experience. Please contact me via eBay’s messaging system and I will take
proper care of you. To qualify for a full refund, the seller must receive the
returned item in the exact condition in which the seller originally sent the
item. Returns with usage, damage, or leakage caused by the buyer (i.e. ruined boxes
and/or labels; broken or tampered-with cording, stoppers, and/or seals) do not
qualify for a full refund. In the extremely rare instance where the seller has
reason to believe the original contents were either altered or removed/replaced
by the buyer then no refund will be provided. Buyers who abuse the return
policy or falsify item condition will be blocked from future transactions and
reported to eBay.
