About

ScentCritic is an independent editorial publication about perfumery. We write honest reviews, in-depth comparisons and buying guides to help you find your next fragrance, without the noise or inflated prices.

Who signs

Every article carries a named byline: who analyzes it and who reviews it before publication. Their author pages list everything they have signed.

• 

  Álvaro Cendra · Fragrance critic

  Independent synthesis criticism: community data cross-referenced perfume by perfume, no brand samples or payments.

• 

  Noelia Ibarra · Editorial review

  Data and method review: every article is checked against the catalog and the published methodology before it ships.

How we score

Every rating is an editorial opinion, not a lab measurement or a crowd vote. We assign a score out of 10 and rate longevity, sillage, versatility and value on a 1-5 scale. We're transparent: what you read is our judgment.

How we're funded

None of this influences our ratings.
