At the present time when the piracy is increasing day by day it is recommended to take these points into consideration while buying a perfume, which will help you to recognize the authenticity of any perfume.
1. The performers should be in the original box, it has become very easy to verify it through the Internet, simply put the name of the perfume into any Internet search engine and you can easily see the packaging and box of that perfume.
2. Most perfumes have cellophane paper around the box but it is not necessary that everyone has it; it all depends on the house designer. Cellophane is not a seal guaranteeing the authenticity of the perfume.
3. The cellophane should not be glued to the box and the box should have thin cellophane, mostly pirated perfumes have thick cellophane.
4. Most of the time the code engraved on the perfume bottle and the code on the box should be same.
5. If a bit of a perfume is being sprayed on a piece of paper than its smell should last for more than 24 hours.
6. The spray bottle should be in perfect condition and should not leak, as this indicate that the product was adulterated.
7. Upon shaking the bottle the bubbles that are made by the movement should disappear in a span of approximately 10 seconds, after it is shaken, if not, there is a possibility that it is pirated.
8. When you shake the bottle it should not submit any junk, dirt or any other foreign substance. It should only contain liquid.
Keep in mind that the perfume can be smelled different from department store, when you smell it in your home, because the environments are different and they influence the flavor, in addition each perfume develops its own aroma after some time.
The level of acidity of the skin, body fat, smoking habits and consumption of drugs can affect transpiration and hence affects the fragrance of perfume.
It is advisable that perfume should be closed properly and should be kept in a cool, dry place away from direct light.
We ask you to destroy containers and boxes of the perfumes after use, as they are the main source of raw material for the pirates who often can make a pirated perfume look original.
Tips before making your purchase
When you make a purchase through auction take into account the reputation of the vendor and see if they sell only through auction or through direct purchase also, it is unusual for a seller to keep its product only for the auction.
Most sellers of perfume offer a warranty and/or delivery personnel, if the seller is not willing to provide at least one of these then there is a high probability that the product is pirated, because if they are selling original products they should not refuse for the service mentioned above.
Beware of new sellers with rating equal to zero and offering a product below the price from the sellers on most of the sites, or have a high percentage of negative ratings as it is very likely that there product is pirated.
