The short answer
A shopper cannot smell a perfume before buying it, so they ask: «what does it smell of? how long does it last? is it original?». A perfume store needs precise notes, sizes with their prices, a small sample added with one tick at checkout, and real buyer reviews. ArabyBot Store covers them, and the AI seller answers scent and longevity questions from your own description.

Selling perfume on WhatsApp: the AI seller answers from your products
Selling perfume is a conversation of description. The AI seller answers from the notes and longevity you wrote on the product, and invents nothing you did not write:
What does the oud and rose smell like, and does it last?
It opens with Taif rose, its heart is oud, and the base is musk and amber. It lasts 8 to 10 hours on skin. 100 ml is EGP 650 and 50 ml is EGP 380.
Do you have a sample before I buy the big one?
Yes, a 5 ml sample for EGP 50, which can be added to any order at checkout.

Payment and shipping for a perfume store
Perfume is a breakable liquid, so make packaging part of your shipping description and pick a courier that accepts liquids. WhatsApp confirmation matters here especially, because a perfume returned after opening cannot be resold.

Mistakes that cost a perfume store
- Generic descriptions for every perfume
«A luxurious long-lasting scent» sells nothing. Write the top, heart and base notes and the longevity in hours.
- No samples
A shopper unsure about an expensive perfume buys the sample first and comes back. Without one they leave for good.
- Returning opened perfume
State that opened perfume is returned only for a defect — an accepted rule that buyers understand.
Frequently asked questions
Can I sell decants?
Yes; every size is a variant with its own price and stock, so 10 ml and 30 ml can be sold from the same bottle.
Does the bot answer «original or copy?»
It answers with what you wrote about the product and its source, and claims nothing you did not write.
Can I make a gift set of two perfumes and incense?
