Online Order
I placed an order online. My order had been sitting in my cart for a few days. When I went to place the order I didn’t realize the coupon code for the free makeup bag, perfume miniature, and hand lotion was not longer attached to the order until minutes after I placed the order. I immediately looked for a place to cancel and reorder, but that wasn’t an option. I emailed customer service and received a prompt response from Nicoletta. I was disappointed to find out that company policy would not honor the coupon code after placing the order, which is understandable. Also, I was not able to cancel the order. This was the only reason I was placing this order so I was pretty disappointed. However, Nicoletta was great in communicating that in a very professional and respectful manner, as well as providing alternative methods such as returning the item once I receive it and try ordering again (although she couldn’t guarantee stock and it can take up to a month). Although I wear this perfume daily and absolutely love it, this is the first time I have ordered directly from Carolina Herrera. I have not received the perfume yet so my review is purely based on customer service, not delivery or packaging. Will I order from Carolina Herrera directly again? I’m not sure. I tend to put items in my cart and wait a few days before purchasing so I could see this happening again and once again miss out on something. I also can’t say much for company policy. BUT I can say a lot for Nicoletta! I work with the public in a business setting. She handled the situation beautifully and with class! Nicoletta is 5 stars, minus 1 for a disappointing company policy. In reply, I wanted to clarify. The code was still valid. In fact, I just checked and it is valid as of today, three days later on 01/20/26. The code I tied to use was CHBEAUTYDUO for the makeup bag, perfume miniature, and lotion. So the frustration isn’t because the code expired. It’s because of policy that I couldn’t go back and cancel the order immediately to order again and add the code or have customer service add the code from their end. Thanks for the reply though!
