Terms of use
Plain terms for using Ask Melia. Last updated 14 October 2026.
What Ask Melia is
Ask Melia is an information and discovery website about perfume and makeup. Melia is an AI guide. Our content is general information, not professional, medical or dermatological advice.
Recommendations
Recommendations are suggestions to test, not guarantees. Fragrance and makeup perform differently on different people and in different conditions. Always patch-test new products and check ingredients if you have allergies or sensitive skin.
Retailers and purchases
We don't sell products. Purchases are made with third-party retailers, under their terms, prices, delivery and returns policies. Some links may earn us a commission; see the affiliate disclosure.
Accuracy
We work to keep information accurate and to correct mistakes quickly, but product details, prices and availability change. Each product page shows the date we checked it. Check the retailer and the brand before you buy.
Fragrance preferences and how long a perfume lasts differ from person to person. A questionnaire or a screen can't guarantee an exact makeup shade match, and virtual try-on colours are approximate.
Trademarks
Brand and product names belong to their owners and are used to identify products. Their use doesn't imply that a brand endorses or partners with Ask Melia unless we say so.
Content
Text, illustrations and the Melia character belong to Ask Melia. You may share links and short quotes with credit. Please don't copy whole guides.
Using the site fairly
Please don't misuse the chat, try to break the site, or scrape it at scale.
