Interested in getting a perfume/cologne bottle engraved? Great! I recommend reading through these FAQs so you can learn about the process.
-
I use a hand-held drill to engrave bottles. All the work is done by hand. No lasers, no cool tech, no computers. So, what does that mean for you? It means that there is a human touch to all my work. I cannot “write” like a computer font. I cannot replicate or repeat things EXACTLY like I created on another bottle. I can try my best and come very close to it, but it will never be a 100% replica.
-
1) First, you must purchase the listing you’re interested in, whether it’s engraving text only, or any of the add-ons (floral-line work, swirls, or painting). When I receive notification of your order, I will email you my shipping address. If you purchase this listing overnight, please give me a few hours to email you my address.
2) Then, you must have the perfume/cologne bottle shipped to me (either via online retailer or if you already have a bottle you can ship it to me directly). I must receive a SEALED and BRAND NEW bottle. Bottle pick up can be arranged for clients local to Orange County, California. Either way, I must receive a brand new bottle.
3) I will notify you, via email, of bottle receipt and begin drafting on it. I share the draft images with you via email as well so it is imperative that you keep an eye out for my emails and reply to me ASAP.
4) Once you approve the draft, I begin engraving the bottle.
5) After engraving, I ship the bottle back to you.
-
My turnaround time changes throughout the year-I am usually busier during wedding season (late spring through fall). I will try my best to update the current turnaround time listed at the top of this page. But in general, a single bottle order takes 1 week, again depending on time of the year. Please allow more time for larger orders, 4+ bottles.
-
Most perfume bottles can be engraved, but if you are unsure, please message me prior to purchasing so that I may better guide you.
-
No, I do not. This is a NON-REFUNDABLE purchase as all orders are custom made.
-
I only provide the EMPTY refillable bottles listed in my shop.
All original perfume bottles need to be supplied by you.
If you’ve still got questions, you can message me here or send me a DM @thecursivediary
