Who Pays the Return Shipping Costs?
If the return is related to a confirmed manufacturing defect, receipt of an incorrect product, damage during delivery, or an incomplete order, Zone Aroma will cover the return shipping costs in accordance with applicable law.
If the return is made by the customer under a statutory right of withdrawal and the product meets the applicable return requirements, the customer is generally responsible for the return shipping costs unless otherwise provided by law or the terms of the order.

Step 5. Confirmation of Receipt
Once the returned product has been delivered to our warehouse, you will receive an email confirming receipt of the shipment.
Step 6. Product Inspection
After receiving the product, our customer support team will inspect it to determine the cause of the defect. The inspection will be completed within 7 days from the date the product is received.
2. Returns and Exchanges of Products in Conformity with the Order
A product in conformity with the order is a product that corresponds to the order, has no confirmed manufacturing defects, was not damaged during delivery, and was delivered complete.

The product must:

Due to hygiene and health protection requirements, cosmetics, skin, hair and body care products, perfumes, car fragrances, and home fragrances sold by Zone Aroma cannot be returned or exchanged after the original packaging, protective seal, or protective film has been opened or damaged, except in cases of a confirmed manufacturing defect or where the product does not correspond to the order.
In particular, opened, unsealed, or used products cannot be returned solely because the customer:
- changed their mind about the purchase;
- is dissatisfied with the fragrance;
- is dissatisfied with the texture or consistency;
- expected a different result from using the product.

The return shipping costs for a product in conformity with the order that is returned for an exchange or refund are borne by the customer unless otherwise provided by law or the terms of the order.
3. Returns and Exchanges of Defective Products or Products That Do Not Correspond to the Order
A product may be considered defective or not in conformity with the order if, for example:
- it has a confirmed manufacturing defect;

- the product was damaged during delivery;
- the product was delivered incomplete;
- the product does not meet mandatory quality or performance requirements established by applicable law.

Return Shipping Costs for Defective Products or Products That Do Not Correspond to the Order
If a manufacturing defect is confirmed, an incorrect product was received, the product was damaged during delivery, or another issue for which the seller is responsible is identified, Zone Aroma will cover the return shipping costs in accordance with applicable law.
The customer will receive return instructions and, where applicable, an electronic return shipping label.
If the inspection determines that there is no manufacturing defect and confirms that the damage was caused by the customer, the return shipping costs may be charged to the customer to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Refunds
If a refund is approved following the review of a complaint, the funds will be refunded within 2–3 business days:
-
using the same payment method that was used for the original purchase;
or
-
to the customer's bank account, if this method has been agreed with the customer or is necessary to process the refund.
Refunds are issued within the time limits established by applicable consumer protection laws.
As a general rule, the refund will be issued after the customer's right to a refund has been confirmed and the returned product has been received, unless otherwise provided by applicable law.
