Transparency
We believe in being completely upfront about how vetivr. makes money. Here's exactly how our affiliate relationships work — and why they will never compromise our recommendations.
vetivr. earns commissions when you purchase fragrances through links on our platform. We only recommend fragrances we genuinely believe in. That's it. That's the whole story — but read on for the details.
01

We do not use deceptive tactics to hide affiliate links. Where practical, we label affiliate links clearly. The presence of this disclosure page and our in-site notices serves as our site-wide notification of affiliate relationships.
04
This is the part we want you to understand most clearly: affiliate relationships do not influence our recommendations.
We do not accept payment from brands or retailers to feature specific fragrances. We do not rank fragrances higher because they generate higher commissions. Our recommendation engine is built on your personal scent profile and collection data — not on commission rates.
We would rather recommend a fragrance available on a lower-commission retailer (or one with no affiliate programme at all) than push you toward a purchase that isn't right for you. Our long-term success depends on you trusting our recommendations — and we take that seriously.
Our promise: every fragrance recommended by vetivr. is recommended because we believe it's a great fit for your taste — full stop. If you ever feel a recommendation seems off or financially motivated, please tell us at hello@vetivr.com. We want to know.
