Frequently Asked Questions
Please see below for answers to common questions from customers
Product
What is the bi-phase formula?
Our signature alcohol-free bi-phase formula features two layers that are activated with a shake to infuse with and last on the skin. The first layer nourishes with its proprietary ‘Ôrəlixir™ base, crafted from hydrating snow mushroom and a moisturizing five-oil blend (camellia, almond, olive, jojoba, and shea), while also extending the scent’s potency and longevity. The second layer boosts mood and aura with memorable blends of aromatherapy essential oils and fine fragrance notes, all crafted from the highest-quality, responsibly sourced ingredients.
Are your products cruelty-free?
Yes! All of our products are certified cruelty-free by both PETA and Leaping Bunny standards.
Are your products vegan?
Yes! All of our products are PETA-certified vegan.
Are your products considered "clean"?
Absolutely. We ban the usage of over 1,300 ingredients (including alcohol, parabens, sulfates, and phthalates), meet strict third-party standards for cleanliness and safety, and responsibly source all materials. All of our products meet ULTA Beauty’s Conscious Beauty requirements for Clean Ingredients.
Are your products wheat and gluten-free?
Yes, all of our products are gluten-free and do not contain any wheat-based ingredients.
Are your bottles made with recyclable materials?
Yes, our bottles and boxes are made of recyclable materials. Recycle the box and liner with paper goods. When you’re finished with the parfum, remove the cap and unscrew the pump from the bottle. Discard the pump. Rinse the bottle out with water and recycle with glass. Recycle the cap according to your local recycling regulations.
Where are your ingredients sourced from?
All of our fine fragrance ingredients and essential oils are responsibly and sustainably sourced from countries worldwide. Our parfums are all made in the USA.
Why are there alcohols in some of the ingredient lists?
‘Ôrəbella was created to deliver luxurious, skin-loving fragrances suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. All of our parfums are free of ethanol-based drying alcohols. Drying alcohols like ethyl alcohol and isopropyl alcohol can strip the skin of natural oils and disrupt the skin barrier, causing dryness, irritation, redness, rashes, and other flare-ups, which is why they’re omitted from all ‘Ôrəbella formulas. Some of our scents include the aromatic alcohol cinnamyl alcohol, which naturally occurs in the essential oil of cinnamon leaves and delivers a sweet, floral, and spicy scent that contributes to the overall olfactory profile of the fragrance, and benzyl alcohol, which helps contribute to ‘Ôrəbella’s unique bi-phase formula. These types of alcohols do not cause any drying or adverse effects on the skin.
Are ‘Ôrəbella parfums suitable for persons with nut allergies?
Our proprietary ‘Ôrəlixir™ base includes almond oil and therefore does carry the risk of a contact reaction if you have sensitivities to almonds.
The almond oil is refined. During the refining process, proteins that are typically responsible for allergic reactions might be significantly reduced. That said, sensitivities and allergies can vary from person to person. While many individuals with nut allergies are able to tolerate refined nut oils, we are unable to guarantee that the product will be suitable for all allergy profiles. We always recommend consulting with a healthcare professional if the individual has a known allergy and performing a patch test prior to use if advised by the physician.
Other than almond oil, there are no other nut oils/ingredients in the fragrances.
How does engraving work, and are there any limitations?
Engraving typically adds 2-5 business days to your order and is available on certain products only: 100mL parfum cap, 50mL parfum cap, and the Travel Case for 10mL. The personalized text is limited to 14 characters. Please note that special symbols, emojis, or phrases may not be possible. Engraving is available for an additional fee of $10 per product. Once your order is placed, engraving details cannot be changed, so please double-check your personalization before submitting.
Why doesn't the spray always come out as a fine mist?
Due to the unique nature of our skin-nourishing formula, the spray may sometimes dispense as a more direct spray rather than a traditional fine mist. This variation is completely normal and does not affect the quality, scent, or performance of the product. For best results, we recommend to always spray directly onto skin.
Why does the Body & Hair Perfume Mist formula change color over time?
All our fragrances are crafted with high-quality perfumery notes, essential oils, and aromatic ingredients. Because these materials come from plants and botanicals, they can naturally deepen in color over time when exposed to light and air. This is a normal characteristic of fine fragrance and does not impact the intended use of the scent or the scent profile. In fact, many perfumes evolve slightly in appearance as their natural ingredients mature — much like fine wine or aged oils. While the color may shift subtly, the fragrance experience remains just as beautiful.
Why does the Body & Hair Perfume Mist formula appear cloudy or foamy after I shake it?
Our Perfume Mist is intentionally crafted as a dual-phase blend of oils and refreshing botanical waters. When shaken, the layers come together to create a soft, cloud-like veil that helps distribute fragrance evenly when sprayed. The temporary cloudiness is simply the moment when the formula blends to life. Gradually, the layers will gently separate again, ready to be reawakened with the next shake.
How do I use the locking mechanism on the Body & Hair Perfume Mist?
To unlock your Mist, simply flip the little switch on the back of the cap from left to right — you’ll feel it glide into place and hear a soft click. If traveling or on the go, lock it by sliding back to the left position as to avoid any accidental spraying.
What do I do if my Body & Hair Perfume Mist pump is stuck/won’t go up?
If the pump isn’t springing back up, first ensure the lock is fully disengaged by sliding the switch to the unlock position on the right.
If the pump still feels stuck, press it down firmly once or twice to help it reset. If needed, gently lift the spray head from the front to help the actuator return to its normal position.
If the pump continues to stick, please reach out to our Customer Care team for further assistance.
