How do I check whether a file or file directory exist in bash?

I currently have this bash script (which is located in my home directory, i.e., /home/fusion809/ and I am running it as root as it's necessary for the icon copying lines):

cd /home/fusion809/Pictures/Icon*

declare -a A={Arch,Debian,Fedora,Mageia,Manjaro,OpenSUSE}
declare -a B={Adwaita,Faenza,gnome,Humanity}

for i in $A; do
  for j in $B; do
    if test -e /usr/share/icons/$j/scalable ; else
        mkdir /usr/share/icons/$j/scalable/
    fi
    if test -e /usr/share/icons/$j/scalable/$i.svg ; else
      cp -a $i*.svg /usr/share/icons/$j/scalable/$i.svg
    fi
  done
done

What I want this script to do is to copy icons from my Pictures/Icons and logos directory to the scalable theme (specified in $B) subdirectories in /usr/share/icons. Before it does this, however, I'd like it to create a scalable directory in these theme subdirectories if it does not already exist. The problem is that the else part of the conditionals is not being read properly, as I keep receiving this error:

./copyicon.sh: line 8: syntax error near unexpected token `else'
./copyicon.sh: line 8: `    if test -e /usr/share/icons/$j/scalable ; else'

If you're wondering why the test -e ... in the conditional it's based on a textbook on bash scripting I've been following.
