Calycanthus, tried on skin before you decide
Acca Kappa Calycanthus is a perfume that we decant into glass spray vials of 2, 5 or 10 ml. No note list is on record with us for this perfume, and we do not guess one. With 2, 5 or 10 ml in a glass spray vial you can find out how it behaves on your skin, at your own pace. Clothes hold a scent differently from skin, which makes a scarf or sleeve a useful second test.

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
On the skin
The notes of Calycanthus are not in our files. That is not a judgement about the perfume, only about what we can state with certainty. Try it on a normal day, not only on a special one, to see whether it fits your routine. A paper strip shows the outline, skin shows the detail.
The status of Calycanthus is on request. That is an honest way of saying it is on our list but not yet in a vial. The form on this page is where you raise your hand. Write down what you notice after a few minutes and again after lunch, and you will see how it moves.
Your sample of Acca Kappa Calycanthus is a decant: the perfume is taken from the original bottle by FragranceGems and filled into a glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml. The vial carries our own label. Keep the vial away from heat and direct sunlight, as you would a full bottle.
Testing it
No season or occasion is on record for Calycanthus, so let your own days decide. Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather. Check it after a few minutes, around midday and in the evening.
There is no audience on file for Calycanthus, which leaves it open to anyone curious. Whoever wears it decides whether it fits, not the label. Collectors use decants to explore widely without filling a shelf. If Acca Kappa is new to you, a small vial is a calm way to get acquainted.
A sample of Calycanthus answers the two things that matter: whether you like it, and whether you still like it on the fifth wearing. FragranceGems fills it from the original bottle and labels it; it is not an official brand sample, and Acca Kappa has no part in it.
What you receive
We start with a full bottle of the perfume. Nothing is diluted, mixed or added.
Filled by hand into a clean glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml and closed straight after filling.
Our own label names the brand, the perfume, the concentration and the size.
A decant is not an official brand sample: no box, no original bottle, and we are not affiliated with the brands.

Yes. The liquid is taken from the original bottle of Acca Kappa Calycanthus and filled into a glass spray vial by FragranceGems. The vial carries our own label, so it is a decant and not a sample made by the brand.
No note list is on record with us for Acca Kappa Calycanthus, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
Spray it on clean skin, do not rub, and check it after a few minutes, at midday and in the evening. Repeat that on a few different days before you decide about a bottle.
The brand
8 perfumes by Acca Kappa: that is our current list of samples from this house. Every sample is a decant in a glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. Acca Kappa belongs to the niche perfume samples on DecantGems. Wearing a perfume for a few days is the fair way to judge it, and that is what a decant is for.

Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
