A digital gift card for Xtrait Perfumery, the niche and indie fragrance boutique in West Hartford, Connecticut. It arrives by email and can be spent on anything we carry: a full bottle, a discovery set, or a handful of 1.5 ml samples to work through at home.
It is the sensible answer to a hard gift. Guessing someone else's taste from a note list rarely works, and this lets them choose the perfume themselves, in person at the counter if they prefer.
Common Questions
How is the gift card delivered? By email, as soon as the order is placed. There is nothing to ship and nothing to wait for, so it works for a same-day gift.
What can it be spent on? Anything on the shelf, online or at the West Hartford counter: full bottles, discovery sets and individual 1.5 ml samples.
Does it expire? No. It can be used whenever they are ready, in one go or across several visits.
Not sure how much to give? A discovery set is usually the most useful starting point, so an amount that covers one leaves them free to explore before committing to a bottle.
