There’s a small gesture of trust in every exchange of perfumes. Someone opens a drawer, takes out a bottle they’ve loved, and decides to entrust it to someone who’s been searching for it for a long time. Sceido was created to protect that gesture and make it simple, peaceful, and transparent.
If you’re new to the business, this guide will guide you through your first steps: how to sell, how to buy, and how to do it safely. Find all the operational details on the official How to Sell and Buy page →
Trust starts with transparency and simplicity
Everything at Sceido revolves around just two words: transparency and simplicity of actions.
Those who sell describe their fragrance sincerely and make it available.
Those who buy read carefully, ask questions and trust.
We make this exchange simple and secure.
Every successful sale follows the same natural rhythm. These simple gestures, together, make the difference between an ordinary transaction and an exchange you can be proud of.
Before you start
To use Sceido, there are a few conditions explicitly stated on the Terms and Conditions page, which must be accepted during registration and respected.
Browsing the catalog is free. You can purchase without registering. Registration is required when you decide to sell or track your purchases.
Selling, step by step
Selling on Sceido is a seamless process. Each step is designed to build trust between you and your buyer.
1. Registration
Create your account and connect Stripe, the secure payment system. An active Stripe account is your gateway to publishing ads and earning. The process is guided, secure, and easy to follow.
2. Build and customize your store on Sceido
On Sceido, every seller has their own store. Customize it to give it an identity and inspire trust from the first glance:
- Choose a clear and recognizable name for your storefront.
- If you like, add a thoughtful logo and cover image.
- Tell us in a few lines who you are and what you love about perfumery.
- Set your shipping preferences and terms of sale.
A well-kept shop communicates passion and trust.
3. Transparent announcement
A good announcement starts with a clear title: brand, perfume name, and size. Forget generic titles. Precision is already a sign of seriousness.
4. Clear and complete description
Tell us about the fragrance in full:
- Product condition and quantity left in the bottle.
- Whether it is new and sealed or already opened.
- Presence of the original packaging and any signs of aging.
- The main olfactory notes, useful for those unfamiliar with the fragrance.
The more information you provide, the fewer doubts you leave. Transparency reduces complaints and returns.
5. Sharp and specific photos
You need at least three quality photographs. Take them in natural light, without filters, and show:
- The bottle from multiple angles.
- The liquid level.
- The packaging, if any.
- The batch number or barcode, which adds credibility.
6. Verify the annoucement
The Sceido team reviews each listing before publishing, ensuring it complies with the Terms and Conditions and the uploaded images. You’ll know within 24 hours if your listing is live. This step protects the quality of the entire community.
7. Punctual shipping
When the perfume is sold, you’ll receive a prepaid shipping label by email. Package carefully and ship within 5 business days. Shipping is always tracked, so both parties can track the package with peace of mind. Fast and timely shipping is always a sign of great appreciation.
8. Payment
You receive payment after the buyer receives the perfume without any complaints. Everything stays within Stripe’s secure system for Sceido, from start to finish.
Buying, step by step
Looking for a rare vintage piece or a classic at a great price? Buying is just as easy.
1. Browse the shop
Explore the catalog using filters or by category. Check out the seller’s descriptions and reviews: the opinions of other enthusiasts are a valuable guide.
2. Choose and buy
Once you find your fragrance, complete your order. You can also purchase as a guest. With an account, however, you can track all your orders in your dashboard.
3. Secure payment
Choose from available payment methods—cards, PayPal, Google Pay, Apple Pay—and confirm your order. Shipping costs are fixed and clearly displayed before payment, so there are no hidden charges.
4. Shipment Tracking
Receive an order confirmation and a link to track your package. Always know where your perfume is.
5. Receipt and confirmation
Upon arrival, you have 3 days to inspect the product and confirm the purchase. If anything isn’t right, you can report it to our support team within the same period.
Tips that make the difference
Some small but precious gestures make every exchange better:
- Pack carefully and ship quickly.

The first principle: everything stays on the platform
Sceido’s security comes from a simple rule: payments and shipments always pass through the platform.
When you complete a transaction on Sceido:
- Payment is handled securely through our integrated system.
- Your card details remain protected and are never shared with the other person.
- The amount is protected until the exchange is successful.
Stay on Sceido for every step. Off-platform payment options—direct transfers, top-ups, external links—are the first signs to watch out for. A trustworthy person will gladly accept the protected marketplace process.

If anything seems unclear during a trade, stop and contact us. Our team is on your side and will guide you through every step. On Sceido, you’re never alone when dealing with a transaction.
Safe trading, ultimately, boils down to a few things: an honest listing, a thorough description, beautiful photos, timely shipping, and plenty of time to choose. These simple gestures, combined, make Sceido a place you can trust.
