Frequently asked questions
Cancel Scentbox: The Right Way to Exit
How to cancel Scentbox and reclaim control of your fragrance spending
What Scentbox is and why cancellation matters
Scentbox is a monthly subscription service that delivers 8 millilitre fragrance samples to your door, allowing you to trial designer perfumes and colognes before committing to full-size bottles. You complete a preference questionnaire, and the service curates samples matched to your taste profile. The model works well for fragrance discovery, but it is not right for everyone, and cancelling is entirely legitimate if the service no longer suits your needs.
You might cancel because you have found your signature scent, your budget has shifted, or you simply prefer purchasing fragrances independently. Whatever your reason, Yafee is here to guide you through every cancellation method available to you in Singapore, ensuring you exit smoothly without confusion or unexpected charges.
How Scentbox billing operates
Scentbox charges you on a monthly or prepaid multi-month cycle, with prices quoted in USD and converted to SGD at checkout. If you subscribe to the Standard plan, you pay approximately USD 16.95 per month after the introductory offer. Prepaid plans (6 or 12 months) charge your full term upfront at a discounted rate. Crucially, cancelling does not automatically refund charges already levied for your current billing period, though that month's box will still ship to you.
Why your cancellation timing is critical
The single most important rule is this: cancel before your next billing date to prevent future charges. If you cancel after you have already been charged, that current month's fragrance is in transit to you whether you want it or not. Yafee recommends marking your billing date in your calendar so you never miss the cancellation window. This one step prevents the most common complaint we see from subscription customers.
Scentbox pricing and subscription plans explained
Understanding your subscription tier and what you pay each month makes it easier to evaluate whether cancellation is the right choice for your finances.
Current subscription plans in singapore
Scentbox offers three monthly tiers, all quoted in USD. When you check out, the system converts the price to SGD and adds shipping costs calculated for your Singapore address. No official SGD pricing is published by the company, so you will always see the conversion at checkout before you confirm payment.
| Plan | Monthly price (USD) | First month offer | What you receive |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | USD 16.95 | USD 9.72 (first month only) | 1 fragrance sample (8 mL), free shipping to Singapore |
| Premium | USD 21.95 | Varies | 1 premium fragrance sample, free shipping to Singapore |
| Platinum | USD 30.95 | USD 17.75 (first month) | 1 platinum-tier fragrance sample, free shipping to Singapore |
Prepaid and gift subscriptions
Scentbox also sells prepaid blocks of 6 or 12 months at a discounted rate, charging your full commitment upfront. Gift subscriptions are locked in and cannot be cancelled or refunded once purchased, so exercise caution if you are the gift recipient. If you received a gift subscription you do not want, your only recourse is to contact Scentbox support and explain your situation; they may make an exception, but this is not guaranteed by their terms.
Why you should cancel Scentbox
There are legitimate reasons to step away from any subscription service, and Yafee recognises that your circumstances change.
Common reasons for cancellation
You may cancel because you have discovered your signature fragrance and no longer need samples. Your budget constraints may have tightened, making a monthly subscription unaffordable. The samples may no longer match your evolving preferences. You might prefer to purchase full-size bottles directly from retailers. You may have accumulated unused samples over several months. You could have received poor customer service or slow shipping. All of these reasons are valid grounds for cancellation, and none require justification to Scentbox.
When cancellation might not be necessary
If you are on a prepaid plan, you cannot cancel the remaining months and recover your money. Instead, contact support to request a pause or address specific complaints before deciding to cancel permanently. If you are dissatisfied with your current month's sample, reaching out to support may result in a replacement rather than full cancellation. Yafee advises exploring these options first if your concern is remedial rather than fundamental.
Your legal rights and consumer protection in singapore
Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act protects you as a subscription customer, and understanding these rights strengthens your position if Scentbox refuses to cancel or disputes a charge.
Your legal position
Under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, you have the right to cancel a distance contract (which includes online subscriptions) within 14 calendar days of the date you received or were deemed to have received the contract terms. This cooling-off period applies to your initial subscription purchase. If Scentbox does not clearly disclose cancellation terms before you sign up, or if they do not provide you with a copy of the contract, you may have grounds to dispute a charge through the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS). Furthermore, if Scentbox engages in misleading or deceptive conduct regarding cancellation, refunds, or billing, you can lodge a formal complaint with the CCCS, which has enforcement power to compel remedies.
Unfair contract terms
The Act also prohibits unfair contract terms. If Scentbox's terms attempt to exclude or limit your right to cancel, or if they impose unreasonable penalty fees for cancellation, the CCCS may deem these terms unenforceable. Prepaid subscriptions with non-refundable terms are generally permissible, but the company must disclose this clearly before purchase. If you were not warned that a prepaid plan could not be cancelled, document this and report it to the CCCS.
How to cancel Scentbox in four methods
Scentbox provides four cancellation routes; Yafee ranks them by speed, clarity, and the evidence trail you retain.
Method 1: cancel via your online account (fastest and recommended)
Logging into your Scentbox account and cancelling through the dashboard is the quickest route and provides instant on-screen confirmation.
- Visit the Scentbox website (scentbox.com) and log in with your registered email and password.
- If you have forgotten your password, use the "Forgot Password" link to reset it before proceeding.
- Navigate to your account settings or subscription management section, typically found in a user dashboard or profile menu.
- Look for tabs labelled "Subscriptions", "Billing", or "Account".
- Locate your active subscription and select it.
- If you have multiple subscriptions, ensure you cancel only the one you intend to stop.
- Click the "Cancel subscription" button or equivalent option displayed on your subscription card.
- Scentbox may present a retention offer or ask you to confirm your reason for cancelling; proceed through these prompts.
- Confirm your cancellation in any pop-up or final confirmation screen.
- Screenshot this confirmation or note the cancellation reference number provided.
Method 2: cancel by email (best for documentation)
Sending a cancellation email creates a permanent, timestamped record of your request and is legally robust.
- Send an email to [email protected] with the subject line "Cancellation Request" or "Cancel My Subscription".
- Include your full name, email address associated with your account, and your account number or subscription ID (found in your account dashboard or billing emails).
- Write clearly: "I request to cancel my Scentbox subscription effective immediately" or "effective at the end of the current billing period."
- State the date you are sending the email so there is no ambiguity about the cancellation request date.
- Send the email from the address registered with Scentbox to avoid confusion about account ownership.
- Request a read receipt if your email provider supports it.
- Retain a copy of the email and any reply from Scentbox in a folder for your records.
- If you do not receive a reply within 3 business days, follow up or escalate using another method.
Method 3: cancel by phone (fastest conversation)
Speaking directly to a representative allows you to clarify terms and hear confirmation immediately, though you must document the conversation.
- Call Scentbox customer service at 1-844-782-9629 during their operating hours.
- Note the date and time of your call, and ask for the representative's name.
- This is a US-based number, so adjust for time zone differences (Singapore is UTC+8).
- Clearly state that you wish to cancel your subscription and provide your account information when prompted.
- Confirm the exact date of cancellation (immediate or end of billing period).
- Ask the representative to confirm that no further charges will be processed after the cancellation date.
- Request a cancellation reference number and ask if a confirmation email will be sent to you.
- If no email confirmation is offered, send a follow-up email to [email protected] summarising the call details.
Method 4: cancel by registered or certified mail (legally strongest)
Sending formal written notice by registered or certified mail creates indisputable proof of delivery and is the strongest legal position if a dispute arises later.
- Prepare a cancellation letter on plain paper or your own letterhead containing:
- Your full name and the email address registered with Scentbox.
- Your account number or subscription ID.
- A clear statement: "I hereby cancel my Scentbox subscription, effective [immediate/end of current billing period]."
- The date you are posting the letter.
- Your signature and contact telephone number.
- Send the letter by registered mail or certified mail (Singapore Post offers this service) to Scentbox's corporate office address provided below in this guide.
- Request a delivery confirmation and proof of postage from the post office.
- Retain your proof of postage and the delivery confirmation in your records indefinitely.
- If Scentbox disputes your cancellation, you have documentary evidence of the request date and proof of delivery.
What happens after you cancel your Scentbox subscription
Knowing what to expect after cancellation prevents confusion and helps you monitor whether Scentbox honours your request.
Your final shipment and current charges
If you cancel before your billing date, Scentbox will not charge you again; however, if you have already been charged for the current month, that final sample box will ship to you. You cannot refuse delivery, but you can resell or gift the sample unused. After cancellation, your account login will remain active for a defined period (usually 30 to 90 days), allowing you to access order history, but you will not be able to reactivate the subscription through your dashboard without contacting support.
Monitoring your account and statements
After cancellation, monitor your bank and credit card statements for the next two billing cycles to ensure Scentbox does not process additional charges. If you see a charge after your cancellation date, contact Scentbox immediately with proof of your cancellation request. Most banks and card providers allow you to dispute unexpected charges within 120 days, so you have a window to contest any error. Yafee recommends setting a phone reminder for 30 days after cancellation to check your statements.
If you change your mind
Reactivating a cancelled subscription is usually possible by logging back into your account or contacting support, though you may lose any discount rate you previously enjoyed. Prepaid subscriptions that you have cancelled cannot be reactivated; you would need to purchase a new prepaid plan at the current rate.
Refunds and what you are entitled to claim
Refund eligibility depends on when you cancel and what you have already been charged.
Cancellations within the cooling-off period
If you cancel within 14 calendar days of receiving your initial subscription contract or confirmation, you are entitled to a full refund of your first payment under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act. To exercise this right, send a cancellation notice in writing (email or mail) and explicitly reference your cooling-off period right. Scentbox must process the refund within 14 days of receiving your cancellation notice.
Cancellations after the cooling-off period
Once the 14-day period expires, Scentbox is not legally obligated to refund charges for the current billing month. However, they must not charge you again after your cancellation date. If you paid for a prepaid multi-month plan, the non-refundable terms are enforceable if they were clearly disclosed before purchase. If they were not disclosed, contact the CCCS to lodge a complaint.
Disputed or unauthorised charges
If Scentbox charged you without authorisation or processed a charge after you cancelled, contact your bank or card issuer immediately to dispute the transaction. You can file a chargeback, which reverses the charge and forces Scentbox to refund you. Retain all cancellation evidence (email confirmations, registered mail receipts, account screenshots) to support your dispute. Yafee advises acting within your bank's dispute window (typically 120 days from the charge date) to maximise your chances of a successful reversal.
Common cancellation mistakes and how to avoid them
Cancelling a subscription should be straightforward, but small errors can delay the process or leave you vulnerable to unexpected charges.
Mistake 1: cancelling after your billing date
If you cancel on the day after you are charged, that month's box is already in processing. You cannot recover the charge unless you file a chargeback and prove non-delivery. Set a calendar reminder for 5 days before your billing date so you have a window to cancel without incurring the next month's fee.
Mistake 2: not retaining proof of cancellation
Screenshotting your online cancellation confirmation, saving email confirmation from support, or keeping your registered mail receipt is essential. If Scentbox disputes your cancellation claim or continues charging you, you need evidence. Do not rely on memory or assume the company has a record; document everything yourself.
Mistake 3: cancelling via social media or chat support only
While Scentbox support on social media or web chat can assist, these channels leave weaker documentation trails. Always follow up a chat cancellation with a formal email or registered mail confirmation. This creates a binding paper trail.
Mistake 4: not checking prepaid plan terms before purchase
Prepaid subscriptions are non-refundable and often non-cancellable. If you purchase a 12-month prepaid plan and later regret it, you are usually locked in. Read the terms carefully before checking out, and if prepaid plans carry non-refundable terms, Yafee advises choosing a month-to-month plan unless you are certain of long-term commitment.
Mistake 5: assuming the final box will not ship
Many subscribers expect that cancelling before the billing date will prevent any final shipment. In fact, if you cancel on the 15th and your billing date is the 20th, you will still receive this month's sample because the charge has already gone through. You will not be charged for a fifth sample, but the current one ships regardless.
Escalation and dispute resolution
If Scentbox refuses to honour your cancellation or disputes a charge despite your request, Yafee recommends formal escalation to Singapore's regulator.
Step 1: written escalation to Scentbox management
Send a formal letter by registered mail to Scentbox, addressed to "Customer Service Manager" or "Subscription Disputes". Clearly reference your cancellation request date, your evidence (email confirmation, cancellation reference number), and the specific charge or delivery you are disputing. State that you expect resolution within 14 days. Keep a copy for your records.
Step 2: file a complaint with the CCCS
If Scentbox does not respond within 14 days or refuses your cancellation, lodge a formal complaint with the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore. The CCCS investigates unfair trading practices, misleading conduct, and breaches of consumer rights. You can file a complaint online at www.cccs.gov.sg. Include all documentation: your cancellation request, Scentbox's response (or lack thereof), screenshots, and emails. The CCCS has the power to compel Scentbox to refund you and levy penalties against the company.
Step 3: dispute the charge with your financial institution
Contact your bank or credit card company and request a chargeback or transaction reversal. Provide your cancellation evidence and explain that Scentbox charged you after you cancelled. Your bank will investigate and may reverse the charge within 120 days of the disputed transaction. This is a powerful tool if Scentbox ignores your formal requests.

Final summary and next steps
Cancelling Scentbox is a straightforward process when you follow the right method and timing. Your strongest legal position comes from cancelling via email or registered mail, which leaves a documented trail. Remember that you have 14 days from your subscription start date to cancel and claim a full refund under Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act; beyond that window, you cannot claim a refund for the current month unless you file a chargeback for an unauthorised charge.
Yafee has helped thousands of consumers cancel subscriptions and dispute charges across multiple services. Follow the methods outlined above, retain all evidence, and escalate to the CCCS if Scentbox refuses to honour your request. Your right to cancel is protected by law, and no legitimate subscription service can prevent you from exercising it. If you have any doubts about your cancellation status, contact Scentbox support immediately or reach out to the CCCS. Start your cancellation today using the online account method for instant confirmation, or send an email to [email protected] for a lasting paper trail. Yafee is here to remind you that you are in control of your spending, and cancelling a service that no longer serves your needs is always the right decision.
