The Perfume Thread

Luxasia sticker is simply a small square with barcode and address which says distributed by Luxasia ..

Does it smell different or doesn't last long?
I was at Metro yesterday and the ones I saw were 9 numbers and the box comes with an extra sleeve outside with the model's face. Even if you key in 08H02H002 without the "A" .. date of manufacture is year 2000.. MB Legend wasn't even around at that time.

I visited Sephora at Tampines 1 today. I realised the 2017 new packaging is similar to the box I purchased at Mustafa, with silver stripes at the bottom. The batch code is exactly the same as mine 08H02H002 but without the A. If you check using checkcosmetic. net the manufacture date will be January 2017.
So the only issue now is the extra A in my batch code.

Almost all Mont Blanc product sold at Mustafa have the outer sleeve removed. Even for Mont Blanc Emblem, the sleeve is also removed at Mustafa.

I sprayed the tester at Sephora and mine to compare the longevity of the product. The smell are similar in my opinion.

As most perfumes come in 50ml and 100ml bottles, I suggest you to try perfume decants (perfume sprayed into smaller spray bottles), either:
- DIY (buy a normal 100ml bottle and spray into the small spray bottles but check online on how to make them less leaky, daiso sells them for $2 each)
- buy decants from sellers on carousell (ranging from $6 onwards for 5ml, check their ratings, good way to sample perfumes)

I am new to the fragrance buying world, so I am not sure if major brands manufacture small pocket sized bottles, though I have seen some "pocket sized" 20ml selling on carousell but they are too cheap to be true.. could be inspired scents (not authentic)

To add on... I haven't bothered looking at Carousell but some of the major brands will produce miniatures, especially at the start of the product lifespan.
Will the official retailers will dangle these miniatures as premiums, some of the parallel importers do get their stock too. I picked up a mini of Dior Sauvage from Chinatown; good to sample but without being a full-bottle commitment.

Icic, I shouldn't anyhow conclude then, how much did you get that sample for ? How many ml?

 

[grizzly76]

It was less than $20, maybe $17.
But with miniatures, your luck may vary.
Can't remember that Chanel makes miniatures for example. They do make travel versions which priced more than regular lines.
On a related note, are refills for travel editions worth it?

Does " I am King Sean John " perfume expired after a period of time? For your information, I cannot find expiry date on I am King Sean John.

do you know the batch code (bottom of bottle or on box) of the perfume? you can use the code and go to http://www.checkfresh.com/sean-john.html to check when the perfume was manufactured (usually add 5 years for "expiry")

The difference between the RRP and warehouse sale prices is eye-watering...
