Are Twaaq fragrances suitable for gifting?
Yes. Fragrance is a timeless and sophisticated choice for any occasion, from personal milestones to executive gifting. For a thoughtful touch, choose a scent that matches the recipient’s favourite profile — such as fresh, floral, woody, amber or oriental notes.
To complete your gift, simply select our signature gift packaging and add a personal message during checkout.
How do I choose the right fragrance for myself?
Start by considering the scents you already enjoy and the occasions for which you plan to wear the fragrance. Fresh and citrus notes tend to feel lighter, while woody, amber and oriental compositions often feel warmer and richer. Product descriptions and fragrance-note information can help you narrow your selection.
What do top, heart and base notes mean?
Top notes are the first aromas you notice after applying a fragrance. Heart notes develop as the opening softens and form the main character of the scent. Base notes emerge more gradually and provide depth, warmth and lasting character.
Why does a perfume smell different on different people?
A fragrance can develop differently depending on skin temperature, moisture, natural skin oils, environment and the products applied to the skin. This means the same perfume may smell slightly warmer, fresher, sweeter or softer from one person to another.
Are fragrance descriptions an exact indication of how a perfume will smell?
Fragrance descriptions and note lists are intended to guide your selection, but scent perception is personal. The way a fragrance develops may also vary depending on skin, climate and application.
How can I make my fragrance last longer?
Apply fragrance to clean, moisturised skin and focus on pulse points. Avoid rubbing the wrists together, as this may affect how the fragrance develops. Longevity can vary according to fragrance composition, application, climate and skin type.
How should I store my perfume?
Store perfume upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat and strong temperature changes. Keeping the bottle in its original box or inside a closed cabinet helps protect it from light and environmental exposure. We recommend a stable storage temperature not exceeding 22°C.
How should I use and store perfume in a hot climate?
Avoid leaving perfume in a parked vehicle, beside a window or in any place exposed to prolonged heat. Store it indoors in a stable, shaded environment at a temperature not exceeding 22°C. When wearing fragrance in hot weather, begin with a moderate amount, as heat may influence projection and development.
How long does perfume last after opening?
Once opened, most perfumes remain usable for approximately 3 to 5 years, although we recommend using them within 2 to 3 years for optimal quality. Scent, colour or performance may change gradually over time. Shelf life depends on the ingredients, the concentration and how the bottle is stored.
Can perfume change colour over time?
Some fragrances may change slightly in colour due to age, light, heat or interaction between ingredients. A minor colour change does not necessarily mean the fragrance is unsuitable for use, but a significant change in smell, appearance or performance should be assessed carefully.
Can I spray perfume on clothing?
Perfume may be applied to some fabrics, but certain ingredients can mark delicate, light-coloured or speciality materials. Test from a suitable distance on an inconspicuous area first, or apply the fragrance directly to the skin.
How will I know that my order has been confirmed?
An order is confirmed once payment has been successfully processed and Twaaq has issued an order confirmation. The confirmation may be sent by email, text message, WhatsApp or another approved communication channel. You can also confirm the status of your order at any time by contacting Customer Support on +965 96665913.
Does submitting an order mean it has been accepted?
No. Orders placed through Twaaq.com are subject to acceptance by Twaaq. Your order is considered confirmed only after successful payment processing and the issuance of an order confirmation.
Can Twaaq cancel an order?
Twaaq may cancel an order because of product unavailability, payment issues, suspected fraud, misuse of a promotion or another valid operational or legal reason. If a cancelled order has already been paid, any applicable refund will be processed in accordance with the approved refund procedure.
What happens if there is a pricing error?
If a product or order is affected by a pricing error, our team will contact you to explain the correct price and confirm whether you would like to proceed with the order or cancel it. Where an order is cancelled, any applicable refund will be issued in accordance with the approved refund procedure.
Can I amend or cancel my order after placing it?
Yes. To amend or cancel an order, please contact Customer Support on WhatsApp +965 96665913.
