I first saw their ad on craigslist which stated they were looking for 18-25 people to fill either a management position or a administrative position. During both interviews, they told me that I would have a chance to earn between $200-$400. What they failed to inform me is that I would be earning that money selling their perfume out in Wal-mart parking lots and gas stations.
They make you sit in a room as they try to convince you that this business is not a scam and after you have completed your unpaid training, you will placed into your very own office with your very own group of people that you will then be incharge of training. They talk about their six figure salaries and the company vacations, about how you will be able to live in your dream home and drive you dream car just by selling knock off perfumes.
On the third day of training, we were told that we were going to work out on the field and we had to learn from our trainers. I was in a car with three other girls that were already working there and knew exactly what was going on. I was driven to a local gas station and told to follow one of the trainers as they tried to sell perfume to people pumping gas.
I have never been so humiliated in my life and fearful of getting caught by the police for soliciting. This company fills your ears up with false dreams and hope only to drop you on the side of the road and have you do their dirty work.

Unfortunately, it seems theres a lot of negativity and
false information circulating the internet regarding Scentura, and I think its
based mostly on peoples misunderstanding of the Scentura Opportunity. I
thought Id post something brief that would help make things clear.
First of all, Scentura Creations is a manufacturer and supplier of rendition
fragrances. They distribute their product line to Independent Wholesale
Business owners throughout the U.S. and have been in business for more than 35
years. Theyre unique in that they provide merchandise without any capital
outlay to these Independent Wholesale Distributors, meaning they dont pay
Scentura until after theyve sold the merchandise. This is key because it
removes a huge barrier of entry into business Inventory costs.
Second, the sales model used by most independent businesses that sell
Scenturas products is that of Direct Selling. Its a business to business,
face-to-face sales strategy that has worked for over 35 years. Its not
glamorous, and its probably not for everyone, but it just works.
Last, and most importantly, Scentura doesn't ask you to invest any money, it's
not a franchise, it's not a pyramid or multi-level marketing business, there's
nothing to purchase, there are no sign-up fees. The only thing required from
you is your time and hard work, and youll get a chance to run your own
business. How many companies out there are willing to offer that?
It probably sounds too good to be true, but it makes sense when you understand
Scentura's incentive: It's a Win-Win scenario for everyone. You get a chance to
own your own business, and Scentura gains a new customer, which means more
volume. If Scentura only dealt with individuals who had hundreds of thousands
of dollars to invest, they'd be waiting a long time,
especially in this economy. So they're willing to take all the financial risk.
Again, this is not for everyone, but the opportunity is definitely real, and
many owners have gone on to make six-figure incomes running their own
businesses that sell Scentura's products.
