4 - PRESENTATION OF ARTICLES

The User is informed that photographs of the Products appear on the Site, which he/she may consult freely.
Zenogati guarantees that these photographs were taken under standard conditions for the sector in question, with the Products themselves.
Zenogati makes its best efforts to ensure that the photographs of the products are as consistent as possible with the products actually delivered to the Customer (in particular the color of the products). However, Zenogati cannot guarantee that the products will be exactly identical to the photographs, in particular due to the technical constraints of making the photographs available on the Site.
Furthermore, Zenogati strives to present and describe its products as accurately as possible. However, subject to providing a faithful presentation of the essential qualities of its products, Zenogati cannot guarantee the exhaustive communication of all the characteristics of each product. The User who wishes to receive additional information about a Product is invited to contact Customer Service at the following address: contact@zenogati.com

The User declares to be fully aware of the provisions of this article, and expressly accepts from now on not to hold Zenogati liable in this regard, subject to the application of mandatory legal provisions (guarantee of conformity in particular).

5 - ORDER

The User can browse the Site without obligation to purchase.
In order to place an Order, the Customer selects the Products of their choice on the Site and adds them to their virtual basket.
The creation of a personal account on the Site is not necessary to place an Order. However, certain personal data of the Customer are required for the proper execution of the Order by Zenogati.
If the Customer wishes, he/she has the possibility of creating a personal account allowing him/her, in particular, to follow the history of his/her Orders on the Site and to find the corresponding confirmations and invoices. Certain personal data of the Customer are required to proceed with the creation of a personal account.
The Customer is required to provide complete, up-to-date and fair information, Zenogati cannot be held liable in this respect. The Customer is informed that some of the information requested is mandatory for the proper execution of the Order he has placed, which he expressly acknowledges.
The description of the Products is available to the Customer on the Site, which the Customer accepts and acknowledges.
Once the Order is finalized, support is confirmed by Zenogati by sending an email to the Customer at the address indicated when placing the Order.
The Order is validated once payment has been made in full and received by Zenogati.
Zenogati will send the Customer an invoice by email to the address provided when placing the Order. The Customer is advised to save or print his invoice and keep it.
Zenogati undertakes to honor validated Orders, within the limit of available stocks.
In the event of unavailability of one or more Products after placing the Order, the Customer will be notified by email.

In any event, Zenogati cannot be held responsible for any damage suffered by the Client, nor liable for any damages.
Zenogati may modify at any time the assortment of products offered for sale on the Site, without prejudice to Orders placed by the Customer.

6 - DELIVERY

The delivery costs will be specified on the Site, all taxes included, during the Order process and must be accepted by the Customer at the time of validation of the Order.

They will appear on a specific line, separate from that specifying the price of the Products.
It is expressly specified that the amount of delivery costs may vary depending on the territory of delivery of the Products, which the Customer expressly acknowledges and accepts.

Delivery times are indicated on the Site and depend on the delivery method chosen by the Customer. Delivery times exclude Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays.

In application of Article L. 216-1 of the Consumer Code, the Parties agree that the Products will be delivered within the time limits specified during the Product Order process and before validation of said Order. The delivery times are also recalled in the Order confirmation email sent to the Customer.
Delivery times include the preparation and dispatch of the Order, as well as the time taken to deliver the Products to the delivery point (Customer's postal address or relay point).

In the absence of an indication on the Site of a delivery time for the Products, Zenogati undertakes to deliver them within a maximum of 30 (thirty) days from the Order validation email sent to the Customer by Zenogati. In this case, the Products concerned are delivered within the time indicated on the Site and recalled at the time of the Order.
However, since Zenogati uses external service providers (carriers, postal services, etc.) to deliver the Products, Zenogati is entirely dependent on these third-party service providers. The delivery times indicated on the Site may therefore be impacted by the service providers without Zenogati being liable for these delivery delays and the consequences that may result from them.

When delivery is made against signature, this constitutes proof of the proper receipt of the package. The transfer of risks and liability relating to the Products takes place upon receipt of the Products by the Customer. From this date, the Customer will be solely and exclusively responsible for them, as well as for their use and any consequences that may arise from them.

Consequently, the Customer undertakes to check, at the time of delivery, that the order delivered is complete, compliant and has not been damaged. Otherwise, the Customer undertakes to refuse to receive the Order and to affix his signature on any supporting document.

Any Order received against signature by the Customer will be considered to be compliant, complete and in perfect condition at the time of delivery.

7 - PAYMENT

The Zenogati website accepts Visa and Master Card bank cards, American Express via the Shopify Payments platform. The payment methods of the Shopify Payments platform are specific to this service provider and are available on the Shopify website: www.shopify.com

Payments made will be secured by a data encryption procedure to prevent interception of this information by a third party. In accordance with current regulations, Members' bank details are not kept by the Seller.

The Seller cannot be held responsible in the event of fraudulent use of the means of payment used.

8 - WITHDRAWAL

In application of articles L.221-5 and following of the Consumer Code, the Customer has a period of 14 days from the date of delivery of the Order to return any new and unopened product, in its original packaging, with its cellophane and in perfect condition (any product that is damaged, incomplete, damaged or whose packaging is deteriorated will not be taken back), to request a refund without penalty.

The Customer must therefore place the intact packaging containing the product in suitable packaging on which the return label will be affixed, before sending it by postal services. The Customer must also attach a copy of the invoice or any other element allowing the identification of the Order in question, and its holder.

The return of the Product is carried out at the Customer's own risk. If the package is lost, stolen or damaged during the return of the product, Zenogati reserves the right to refuse to reimburse the returned product(s).

Only the Customer identified as such to Zenogati may exercise this right, to the exclusion of any other person, and in particular the person to whom the delivery is addressed. The return address is: Zenogati, 25 RUE CHATEAUNEUF, 06000 NICE, FRANCE.

9 - PERSONAL DATA

When placing an Order, certain personal data must be provided by the Customer and collected by Zenogati. This includes the Customer's surname, first name, email address, postal address and telephone number. The same personal data is required when creating a personal account.

They may also, for legitimate reasons, object to the processing of data concerning them.

The User's personal data is also deleted when the User expressly withdraws his consent to the collection and processing of his personal data, subject to Zenogati's legal obligations. The User may also, under the right to the portability of his personal data, recover his personal data for his personal use, or request that they be transferred to a third party, if this is technically feasible. Each User may also object, for legitimate reasons, to the processing of data concerning him, and request the limitation of data processing.

FAQs

What is a niche perfume?
  • Niche perfumes are fragrances created with careful attention to detail and using high-quality ingredients. They stand out from mass perfumes by their originality, exclusivity and superior quality.
What alcohol is used in Zenogati perfumes?
  • We use 100% vegetable alcohol. 100% vegetable alcohol is non-toxic and can be safely used in the creation of perfumes. It is also less likely to cause skin irritation or allergic reactions than some synthetic alcohols.
Do you add any additives?
  • Zenogati does not add any additives to perfumes. In some perfumes on the market, dyes or sunscreens can be added to control the color of a perfume. We have decided not to use these processes, preferring to preserve the natural purity of our fragrances.
