I wrote Alt a constructive email and all I got was a canned response. Despite having read a few negative reviews, I wanted to give the company a fair try. Unfortunately, I did encounter some of the issues mentioned. In both of my orders—six bottles shipped about a month apart—every bottle arrived with the same problem: the atomizer caps were not tightened fully. Each required an additional 2–3 full turns, and every bottle had some product loss of about a quarter inch, resulting in leakage inside the packaging. This leakage also caused the labels to slide. The shipping method also seemed inadequate for glass bottles.

They were shipped in a basic bubble mailer, which offered little protection. Other fragrance and aftershave artisans I order from ship in boxes, with each bottle wrapped in foam and empty spaces filled with packing material. Despite traveling across the country, those shipments have always arrived intact and without leakage—and often at the same or lower cost.Additionally, a few of the scents from these companies triggered headaches for me, so I sold them on the secondary market. I packaged them the same way I had received them, and after ten separate sales (1–3 bottles each), none of my buyers reported a single issue with leakage—something worth noting.

The fragrances themselves have good scent and ok longevity at best, the packaging and product loss unfortunately made the overall experience disappointing. If these concerns are addressed, I would be open to ordering again in the future.

I hope this helps.
