Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about our perfumes, ordering and delivery.

About our perfumes

Are these the original designer perfumes?

No. French Nova fragrances are our own creations, inspired by popular perfume styles. They are not copies or replicas, and we are not associated with any other brand.

How long do the fragrances last?

They are made to last, and longevity varies with your skin, the weather and how you apply. For the longest wear, spray on pulse points after a shower.

What sizes are available?

20 ml and 50 ml. You can see the price of each size on the product page.

How long will a bottle last?

On typical daily use, a 50 ml bottle lasts about 2 to 3 months.

What is MYOB?

MYOB is “Make Your Own Box”: choose any 6 perfumes from our collection as 8 ml testers in one box for ₹699. You can pick the same scent twice. Start from the MYOB page.

What do the scent families mean?

We group our perfumes into six families: Flowery, Fresh, Gourmand, Herbal, Earthy and Warm. Tap the ⓘ next to the scent badge on any product page to see what each one smells like.

Orders and shipping

Where do you deliver?

Anywhere in India. We don’t ship outside India at the moment.

How much does shipping cost?

Shipping is free on orders of ₹999 and above. Below ₹999, a flat ₹100 shipping fee applies.

When will my order arrive?

We dispatch your order within 1 working day, and it reaches you in 3 to 5 working days, depending on your location in India. You’ll get the tracking details by email as soon as it’s dispatched.

Which payment methods do you accept?

UPI, debit and credit cards, and net banking. Cash on delivery is not available.

My tracking isn’t updating, or I didn’t get a tracking email. What should I do?

Check your spam folder first. If you still can’t find it, write to support@french-nova.com with your order number and we’ll look into it.

Can I change my address or cancel my order?

Yes, but only before your order is dispatched. Email support@french-nova.com as soon as possible with your order number. Once an order has been dispatched, we can’t change or cancel it.

Returns, refunds and damaged orders

Can I return or exchange a perfume?

To ensure the highest standards of quality and care, our products are currently not eligible for return or exchange.

What if my order arrives damaged, defective, incorrect or incomplete?

Email us within 24 hours at support@french-nova.com with clear photos, and please include an unboxing video. Once we’ve reviewed it, we’ll arrange a refund or replacement within 4 to 7 working days.

When will I get my refund?

If an online payment fails, the amount is refunded automatically to your original payment method within 7 working days. Approved refunds are credited to the original payment source within 7 to 10 business days.

Using your perfume

Where should I apply perfume?

On pulse points — wrists, neck and behind the ears — or spray once in the air and walk through it.

How should I store my perfume?

Keep it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, heat and sudden temperature changes.

Why can’t I smell my fragrance after a while?

That’s normal. Your nose gets used to a scent (this is called nose fatigue), but people around you can still smell it. Go easy on reapplying.

What does Eau de Parfum mean?

It’s a fragrance with a higher concentration of perfume oils than an eau de toilette, so it generally lasts longer on the skin.

Can I wear two perfumes together?

Yes — it’s called layering. Try a light scent with a richer one, and start with small sprays until you find a mix you like.
