Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about how Daily Fragrance Scout works and how it is funded. If your question is not covered here, email hello@dailyfragrancescout.example.
How does this site make money?
Daily Fragrance Scout earns affiliate commissions: when you buy through some outbound links, the merchant may pay us a commission at no extra cost to you. This is disclosed near every outbound link. Commissions never change how organic results are ranked, and paid placements are always labeled "Sponsored".
Are the prices shown guaranteed?
No. Prices and availability are informational and timestamped at the moment we last checked them. Merchants can change prices at any time, so the price shown at the merchant's checkout always governs what you pay.
What does "Verified" mean?
"Verified" means a moderator has confirmed that the deal was live and matched its listed terms — price, discount, and coupon code — at the time of verification. It is not a guarantee that the deal is still active; always check the timestamp.
What does "Sponsored" mean?
"Sponsored" marks a placement a merchant or partner has paid for. Sponsored slots are always labeled and are kept separate from organic ranking, which is based on discount, freshness, and community signals only.
How do I submit a deal?
Use the "Submit a deal" page, fill in the deal's link, price, and details, and send it in. You need a free account to submit. Every submission is reviewed by a moderator before it appears on the site.
How are submissions reviewed?
Moderators check that the deal is live, that the price and coupon code work, and that the listing is not misleading or duplicated. Expired, unverifiable, or deceptive submissions are rejected. Self-promotion must be disclosed at submission time.
How do deal alerts work?
You can follow categories, merchants, or searches from your account. When a new deal matches something you follow, an alert appears in your account's alerts inbox. You can adjust or remove follows at any time in Settings.
How do I delete my account?
Go to Settings and choose account deletion. You can export your data from the same place first. Deletion removes your personal data in line with our privacy policy; some anonymized records (such as hashed click counts) contain no personal identity and are retained for statistics.
How do I report a bad deal?
Every deal page has a report option — use it to flag expired deals, wrong prices, or misleading listings. Reports feed directly into moderation, and repeatedly reported deals are re-checked or removed. You can also email support.
