    CHILL GUYS ! BOTH ARE REAL !!!!!!! the bottle on the left is the old design of the bottle, and the one on the right it the new one , the cap is just redesigned ! BOTH ARE REAL !!!! don't be fool, your fragrance is an original :)

  • @trancendent
    @trancendent  12 лет назад +2

    @MsKittenkitten From what I was able to gather online, the women's version of Light Blue should be made in Italy. There could be a possiblity that they changed where the fragrance is made in the 10+ years that it has been on the market as in the first batch in Italy, and the newer ones in Germany. I would not be surprised that there would be a fake of the smallest bottle because it's a very popular scent. Your best bet is to take it to a store and compare.

    @rgablejr 11 лет назад +3

    On the fake bottle, the letters will peel and or fall off very easily. I was given a bottle as a gift and became a bit weary when the spray came out like a stream and the smell was faint...great vid!

    hey man. my bottle of light blue is the same as your fake one but you can see the difference in the juice. the original has a slight light yellow tint when you hold the bottle against light..i know mine is real because i purchased it at Dillards.

  • @21vanilla
    @21vanilla 13 лет назад +2

    the caps on the cologne are different depending on the size of the bottle.. i bought a real one from Nordstrom and the cap is the same as the fake one you are showing.

  • @JB-pf5ve
    @JB-pf5ve 11 лет назад +2

    I wonder if it was originally an authentic bottle that was just diluted with water? In any event, sorry that happened to you. It's so disappointing when you look forward to getting a favorite scent in the mail and then realize it's fake. Thanks for sharing.

  • @T.K.9
    @T.K.9 8 лет назад +2

    I believe that other reasons why a perfume can have shorter life span after you spray it onto your skin can be caused by older batch/stock. Newly made perfume tend to last longer. Older batch/stock will not.

    • @EB-jp8jk
      @EB-jp8jk 8 лет назад +1

    The bottle you bought in 210 is same bottle I bought in 208 when light blue first came out ... I bought mine from Boots department store .. mine is made in the UK genuine. I still have about 10 ml left .. the bottle on the right is made in France smells almost the same and last about the same 10hrs +

    @MsKittenkitten Soon after I posted this video, I ordered a real bottle of the men's fragrance from a reputable site and the men's version is made in the UK. In the future, I highly recommend you avoid ebay as you never know what you're gonna get.

  • @johnflowers2736

  • @trancendent
    @trancendent  13 лет назад

    @firstclass305
    No it is not a tester. The D&G Light Blue tester comes in a generic white box that says Not For Resale. Mine came sealed in a knock off attempt of the retail box. If it is a tester, why is the bottle shape, cap, and spritzer different? Assuming we go on your premise that it is a tester, there should be no reason why the scent's top notes and base notes to be completely different when I compared the two; even it is was an old bottle. It's fake.

    • @Bossmanrocks
      @Bossmanrocks 5 лет назад

      Not necessarily. Some manufacturers find it easier to manufacturer the product in the country they are selling it with imported essential oils than to manufacturer in their home countries where shipping will cost double or triple than if they manufactured in the country they are planning to sell it in.

  • @ChizowX
    @ChizowX 11 лет назад +2

    Helpful comparison, thanks. My gf bought this for me from Amazon and we were a bit worried based on some of the negative fake reviews. My 4.2oz looks to be the real deal, the seller was direct from Amazon.

    I just bought a fake Aqua de Gio. As soon as I smelled it I knew there was something wrong. When comparing the batch number from the box and bottle they were different. Then the seller was asking me to not leave a negative review.

I sent the seller a message that what they had sold me were fakes and now actually getting ready to go to post office and show them cus it has something to do about fraud and the United states post office to deliver said fake merchandise that they pass off as the real deal

    I compared mine to the one's u showed.
    Mine looked like the real bottle.
    Thank u for sharing this video.
    Next time u have a problem with a purchase on eBay. U can dispute it in the resolution center.
    If u checkout using PayPal. U have 180 days to file a dispute.
    U would've gotten ur money back and been allowed to keep the item.

  • @aamelly
    @aamelly 12 лет назад

    the biggest difference i notice is that with fake versions the bottles ALWAYS leak fluid if yoou lay them on there sides in a very warm area like a trunk after a couple of ho0urs the box will be soak and wet of the liquid, dead give away, i too just got taken and in the pass i had tried a armani code which did the same thing, leaked onto the box, seller gave me back my money only if i sent back the perfume, go figure, shipping was on me but so was the principle!!

    Hmmm, there are a lot of comments saying yours is legit. I'm not so sure. Ebay is full of fakes. I've been burned several times, even by sellers with good ratings. I no longer buy fragrances from Ebay. The thing that convinces me is the way the bottle wobbles around, no real bottle should do that.

  • @markrelloso8234
    @markrelloso8234 7 лет назад +1

    This is actually the sneakiest excuse by counterfeiters and "sellers"
    who have so much FAKE inventory at the back room to offload to the market.
    There's a term called economies of scale and if you're a counterfeiter,
    all one needs to do is to dump all the ingredients in a vat (well,
    there' s a process but you know what I mean) and let Nautica spend on
    the brand building, while the counterfeiter shaves off and profits from
    the small margin. Mass produced perfumes rely on volume sales not on
    markups, even the authentic ones are, as you pointed out, cheap already,
    but that's not the point. The point for counterfeiters is to make money
    by hitching a ride on the profiteer model of the authentics by posing
    fake, CHEAPER made ones as authentics. Let's be honest here, perfumes
    are a mixture of chemicals, but it's the brand people are paying for. OH
    BTW HOW ARE YOUR CHANNELS AND SUBSCRIPTIONS DOING? HOW ABOUT UPLOADING
    YOUR VIDEOS? I WANT INFO ON THE ARMANI SCENTS.

  • @firstclass305
    @firstclass305 13 лет назад

    hey brother its real but its a tester. not to say its fake its more then likely old and as you know cologne really loses scent after a while of siting. also the the scent fade is personal. no cologne lasts the same length of time on any two people. hope i helped... but feel fine its a real cologne its just a tester. google it and you'll see what i am talking about

  • @StanleyRC1
    @StanleyRC1 7 лет назад +6

    Bro, you don't have a fake!!! That's the vintages bottle and light blue just doesn't have longevity. I have the new one and the story is the same. Gee wiz, you just made all of that up!!! Sometimes the bottle can be at the end of it's shelf life and you buy it weak. it happens.

  • @Bossmanrocks
    @Bossmanrocks 5 лет назад +2

    Longevity and silage (strength) is no longer an indication of veracity. All manufacturers are cutting corners and putting less essential oils and more alcohol in their fragrances, besides restrictions put on them by the EU, which forced them to do reformulations. Keep voting Liberal People!
    If you want the one you like, look at the batch code on the bottom of the bottle and find another one with the same batch code. It will help if you remember the year you purchased it too. That can narrow down the search, if you want to go through all that trouble. Sellers will easily tell you what the batch number is on the bottom of the package and you can compare it to your bottle or go to checkfresh.com and put the batch number in there to find one in the same or earlier year than what you have. You are sure to find one that has the original formula then.

That right there should tell you all that something is wrong and that he may just be correct about getting a fake.

    This is why you purchase them in a department store, HOWEVER, since they're aware that they sold you a FAKE they should AT LEAST send you a real one or refund you your money. Why is it that they KNOW they sent you a fake and won't give you your money back. I would contact ebay if I were you. That just isn't right
