Steven is 100% an English teacher lol his vocabulary is that of a person that either enjoys reading, or enjoys teaching the art of english literature. Makes the reviews much more enjoyable.
Had no idea he was a Teacher explains the professionalism and civil etiquette
Concur 100%. Articulate RUclips reviewers are far and few between, one of the many reasons I'm also a subscriber.
Aren’t they quite brazen about it with their name? “Is t it real?” “You wish!”
You got that right!
Got me to laugh out loud at “if you throw this at someone’s head they are going to turn around, laugh at you and punch you in the face” 😂😂 Thanks for the great video!
"This can be used as a weapon." Steven that made my day 😂
Great video btw
I really appreciate you doing the detailed comparison so people can mark the differences.
You're very welcome, Michael. I really hope this helps someone.
Great educational video Steven! Amazing the lengths some con artists will go to to rip people off. I feel bad for those who they take advantage of.
I lol'd when you said "this cap weighs about two million pounds"
so true 😂
Thank you so much Steve for coming up with this video... Stay safe... stay indoors... cheers 🤗🤗👍
Thanks for looking out for us Steven. We appreciate you!
Stephen, this was a phenomenal video! I appreciate you doing this for the fragcom
Thsnk you so much steve for your warning !!!! I cant wait to see your video about the new interlude . Keep going like that steve 👍
Great info Steven! Thanks for this video, it shows how much you care for us as buyers.
I like doing comparison videos between real and fake fragrances. If I can help one person avoid purchasing a counterfeit, I feel like I've done my job.
Hey, I'm not entirely sure if my bottle of Layton is authentic. The smell isn't no where as nice as my sample but the bottle is done well. Would you be able to help me?
Thanks for the comparison, though I have to say that I just recently purchased Nisean on Notino (Germany) and everything seems to be original, but the relief on the bottle isn't as clear as on my bottle of Percival. I don't think it's a fake, but it seems plausible that older bottles weren't made with the same precision as newer ones. (Even though I had purchased Percival before Nisean it has a much higher batch code and must be newer.)
It would be helpful to know, if other people can draw the same comparison.
I have been waiting for this video for so much time. You don't Know how much times I have question myself of how does a Creed Adventus from wish smells like in comparison to the OG.
Great video! Thanks for creating it to educate everyone! Hope you and your family are staying well!
Thank you Steven🙏 very useful information, we learned a lot! Nowadays those people are just trying to make money however they can by taking advantage of others, Damn crooks!😤...I've been scammed before by a fragance house and it is not fun, you feel like you just gave them your money.
Great video like always, always love your shirts man.
Sorry you had to go through this. That's the bad thing about online, you can't touch and feel the product. Only relying on the pictures they have for you. Not just fragrances. Thanks for bringing awareness to this
Thanks for the heads up Steven !
I'm wondering if the fake is actually a very diluted fragrance that has been repackaged !
I had that happen on a TF Black Orchid purchase from Ebay .
Thanks for sharing . . .
Thanks steven for the video, I'm having a question regarding the bar code on the box, if you scanned it with the scanner all of us have in the mobile phone & then searched for the result online, you will end up with so many websites that could lead to the same perfume, so can we rely on scanning those bar codes?
I love these type videos, showing us fakes for some reason. Ash did purchases on wish and Ali express , so entertaining lol, thanks for doing.
is your comperation only for herod? because like layton bottle you cannot see how much liquid inside, and the bottle is different with herod
Very good review thank you for the information need to watch out when buying cologne on internet so many fakes, have a wonderful day take care and be safe
First time hearing about this! Thanks for the heads up
You're very welcome, Josh. I'm glad I was able to help.
I don't have Herod, but on my Carlisle the nozzle is grey not black, can you check your Carlisle nozzle color?
Great vid steve as always. I love this house i burnt through my layton and trying to get something new. Currently thinking between amouage lyric man or pegasus. Do u find lyric man feminine ? Kinda worried since im a muscular guy so i dont want it to be weird wearing it and findng that it doesnt match me. I heard that it has good performance . What do u think ? And if you would recommend anything from amouage aside from refelection that has very good performance from a niche starter what it would be
Great video Steve, thanks for the heads up. Herod is a masterpiece, such an intoxicating blend. Will always be a crown of my collection. 👍🏻
Thanks for this insight, Steven. This can help!
That thumbnail is smoldering 🔥🔥!
Came just cause I saw the title. This is the best content for the Quarantine.
Just buy your niche fragrances from the authorized retailer or directly from the house everyone. You will never have to worry about fakes or if you’re getting a knock off.
In a perfect world. Most of us can’t afford retail.
Some really good tips! What I’ve been doing is to go to a store (when we were able to) and grab a sample decant. Then, if I order it through a discounter I can compare the two. It’s what I did with both Prada L’Homme and PDM Layton.
Thank you so much for stopping by and commenting. I hope you're staying safe.
Great video and cool video idea Steven 👍.
Thank you so much, Chris. I hope you're staying safe.
Hi Steven... Always so helpful and informative.... Thank you
When you purchase anything do you use a prepaid card ?
Very nice information Steven 👏
Thank you, Samy!
Hope you are well and safe. Have you ever run into this before? I was recommended to a guy who does decants by a FB group I am a member of..
The first time I ordered, I got 3 different PDM and 2 Mancerea Fragrances. All of them were great . Long lasting juice and decants were very nice with metal caps and atomizers, that sprayed really nice. I decided to place a second order because I was so impressed. My 2nd order was 2 different batches of Aventus and a decant of Bleu De Chanel Parfum. This time, they came with plastic tops and plastic, not so good atomizers. Both Aventus batched are fair at most and last on my skin about 1 hour. The Bleu De Chanel Parfum, smells terrible and lasts on my skin about 30-45 minutes. Just curious if you think this is a bait and switch, or if you ever ran into this type of situation before.
Thanks for your time,
Chuck Moore

Crazy how close the fake bottle is from first glance. Thanks for doing this educational video!
Superbly helpful information, Steven.
Dear Steven, thanks a lot for sharing this video, I got Carlisle from amazon and I found that the nozzle not black, would you please tell me what is the color of the nozzle in Carlisle?
This is a very timely video. I'm considering buying Herod from a discounter that I've heard is okay, but I would love to hear some additional verification of that. Have you every bought from La Belle Perfume Distributors? Are they above board?
I would never even entertain the thought of purchasing any fragrances from Wish.
As always, great video Steven.
Walmart online are selling some PDM for cheap like almost half off. I find it weird buying PDM from Walmart. Can’t tell if it’s real. Does anyone know anything about this?
Walmart online has third party sellers, so I wouldn’t trust those listings. Probably the same people selling the fakes on all the other sites.
Edit: yep, a scam. There is a Reddit thread about the seller - I originally posted the link, but I think RUclips blocked my comment because of that.
I just got my sedley today and it looks like it's missing a few sprays and the badge code is parallel but i bought it from the actual website and the nozzle is white and the box says 4,2 when it's supposed to be 4.2
Steven I was hoping you could provide me with some assistance. I am a bit of a newbie to the Niche game and I purchased Xerjoff Naxos which is a wonderful scent but I have found that I much prefer Back to Black by Kilian... How or where might I look to trade??? I have the barely used bottle of Naxos with box and presentation bought from Lucky Scent... Any advise from you or others is appreciated...
I've sold fragrances on Kijiji and FB Marketplace. But if you sell on FB you need to obfuscate your ad wording otherwise FB will take your post down. I think Fragrantica has forums for trading as well.
"This cap weighs about 2 million pounds.." 😂
Are all these details true about all Parfums de Marley or just Herod? I got a bottle of Layton off facebook group's about a year ago.
Batch code on bottom is parallel not perpendicular to writing.
Atomizer/nozzle is white and not black.
Cap is heavy and seems to be made out of metal and smell seems powerful/bold and I think smells amazing but I have nothing to compare it to.
Think I got a fake?
Tan you for the video, I have a question I bought a Herod from fragrance x the cap does not have a satisfying snap as my Layton bottle I bought from Nordstrom. From your experience is it the bottle material that's different with the Herod or do you think the bottle might be defective. Thank you.
You scared me so much I just my bottle of Layton that I got from Fragrance Buy and the cap is heavy. Phew!
My question Stephen is, was the fake Herod bottle so much cheaper than it should have been. Even discounted?
Guau, simply incredible. Thanks for your report Steven. Being sincere I never had on my mind buying a fragance on a non recognized site.
You're very welcome. I hope you're doing well in Costa Rica.
@@Redolessence this is the Pura Vida Country my friend, you are still missing the chance for coming over. We have no biggest issues with the Pandemic thanks to our Government policies and Strong Social Security System. All the best for you and your family, Lazaro Broitman
The bottle looks like it has a slightly “fatter” belly of the original and on the bottom of the fake I immediately noticed the grooves on either side, that line protruding in the middle on both the upper and lower, and the inner circle around the sticker looks much more noticeable whereas on the original it’s a bit more smoothened. Also, the cap is a dead giveaway, the fonts are completely different, the real is “Times Roman” and the fake looks like “Sans” and the letters are crammed on the fake. Thanks for this Steve, this is definitely something to look out for, even on Facebook groups
Great informative video Steven 😊😊
Great the lettering on my 75ml of Herod looks bubbly, and the date stamp is parallel. I bought it on fragrance x, but the cap is heavy and the smell is on par with the discover sample i received from the PDM site. I'm so confused 🤔
Exactly same with my 75ml of Godolphin from FragranceX! According to this video, I have a real cap and a fake bottle! Now I am also very confused.
You really took one for your audience! Enjoyed the video!
Thank you Steve ! I was curious about Wish from the jump when I seen Creed Aventus for half the price from retail.
Love your vids bud 👍...i dont worry cause i cant afford those powerful houses like creed amouage etc ..but my question is what about those testers do they come with that same juice as an retail bottle ??
Steven, how many sprays in a parfums de marly 125 ml bottle before you use it all? Thank you
there seem to be a bunch of different adresses on the bottles. most of mines have written rue Marbeuf on the bottom, one of them rue de la Paix and yours, as seen here, rue Jaques Dulud. Do you happen to know why?
Hey man..does the tester bottles perfumes last as long as the retail one?
Hey o got a question I have 2 bottles of PDM LAYTON one batch from 2016 and one from 2019 they smell different I am wondering if one is fake even the bottles are Slightly different blues
8:23 Got me a bit worried now, about the bottle of Layton I bought last week. As soon as I took it out of the box I was struck by how poorly embossed the lettering was, in both the shield, and even worse on the main lettering near the bottom-front. It's almost flat at the "...MS De M" and the "Paris" below that. The bottle cap is heavy, solid metal, but the inside doesn't look like yours, and the tiny vapouriser hole is white. The juice itself certainly seems genuine. Oily on the skin, smells fantastic, and lasts hours.
Love videos like these Red... Thabks for a dope vid.. Very informative
Thank you so much! I hope you're doing well.
@@Redolessence ur welcome man
Thank you very much for your kind words !
I think you forgot to link my channel in your video description. I didn't find it.
A thing that is going on lately, crooks come up with a new type of packaging, bottle is the same but the box looks and opens up book style (it's called "special edition")
Also, there are already fakes on the market of fragrances that don't even exist yet (like Dior Sauvage Intense or Dior Sauvage Sport).
Next I plan on doing videos for Emporio Armani Stronger With You (EdT), Lalique Encre Noir (EdT), Joop Homme (EdT), Paco Rabanne Pure XS (EdT).
Thank you once again for the shoutout.
The pleasure is all mine! Keep up the fantastic work. Also, thank you so much for the great information. I just added your link to the description. Sorry about that! I totally overlooked it.
Thank you for the heads up 🤙🏽 I’ll be staying away from Wish.Com.... Have you ever had an issue with FragranceX?
Hey steven What do you think about fragrancex do they sell authentic parfums de marly and amouage?
To me, the main issue is the chemicals: the fake could cause several health problems, since no one knows what it is, who produces it et . They don't follow IFRA, nor anything. Even if they smell similar, the chemicals could cause health problems. Great video, though.
So true bought a fake green Irish Tweed for unusually cheap and it was a fake and burned my skin😌
I need your help as i need to buy Bleu de chanel for summer but i'm now chosing between edt and edp both of them i like but i like edt more but for performance it's more weak than edp.. So my question is (is edp good and bring compliments in the summer same edt?)
I have 2 Carlislies, the address in the box from the Parfums de Marly factory or warehouse is different in the number, same street with different number. Do you thing this could be fake or they have 2 location in the same place?
Very informative..thank you. There is something in common in fake perfumes. The people who make them; they do it only for one reason: making more money. So if they want to make money, they must choose a popular perfume that most people like so much, like aventus, black afgano, suavage and... so my point is: if you intend to buy perfumes like i mentioned above..you must be extra careful and also buy it from a reliable website or boutique. Thank you again 🌸
Hi Steven, do you recommend buying PDM fragrances from Fragrancenet or fragrancex?. Greetings from Ecuador!
Thanks for stopping by! I have used both of these websites in the past with good success!
Steve I purchased a Herod from Notino Germany. I believe it's original, even though the lot number appears parallel at the bottom. You might want to check with PdM, orientation of that printing might not have anything to do with it being original vs. fake. That would be quite easy for the fakers to replicate well after all. My bottle is 75 ml though.
In any case lot # on mine is 0300035, and I'm quite disappointed with the longevity. After 2+ hours it's way too close to the skin, pretty much gone. I double checked spraying from a bottle in a local store onto a paper strip, it's the exact same scent, and the same short disappointing longevity.
I’m lucky enough to never have got a fake but I did buy 2 CDIM over Amazon here in aus & both bottles leaked at the top & they both ran out so fast . I don’t know if they were full to the top either because with the CDIM you can’t see how much juice is inside :(
I just brought 2 fragrances, a Creed Original Vetiver & Mancera Cedrat Boise from fragrancex & maxaroma and on both boxes I have Arabic lettering, why?? Are they fake??
No they are not. Do some research on how fragrancex sells for their prices. Typically they are for other markets who have lower prices
I have several department store purchased PDM scents and they all have the batch number printed parallel to the writing on the bottom.
Thanks Stephen !!!! Great info.
What a world we live in ☹️
Thank you, Steven🥰
Appreciate it bro. You're our nice-smelling Investigative Journalist.
I’m so glad I got mine from the official parfums de marly website after watching this💖 (however my bottle of delina wasn’t filled to the top like you said with sedley )
My thoughts if you can afford Niche why cut corner? But if you want a discount because we all love discounts just wait till a sale at Neiman, Saks, etc etc just a thought! Great vid! Thanks for the info!
i have 4 pdm fragrances and 2 of them from notino have white nozzles , is this a definete indication that there fake ?
Does anyone know the really bottle made from what material? I send email to pdm but they dont even sure
Thank you for making this video. I've got cheated at least 3x from local insta seller. In my case all are designer fragrances. The first 2 bottles I can tell it was fake even before opening the box. The box overall look and of course the juice insides when i finally spritz it (I know how these 2 smells, but how about buyer that dont know how the original smell in the 1st place?) the other purchase from different seller, the box, the bottles all seems very legit, untill i try it on. Tresor line usually last and last and last and last. This one gone after 5mins, also what scary is this seller have fake Macy's sticker on the box. Both of this sellers have thousands of followers in insta and tons of good reviews... This is getting out of control.
Just bought a bottle from Fragrancenet. How do you feel about them?
Which PDM is the nicest smelling out of the full range?i would much sooner save & buy real even from a main store 🏬 maybe Harrods or somewhere in London.
I blind bought a bottle of Herod from Fragrancex recently and was kind of taken aback by how light it smelled. I haven't sampled the original and I plan to head to the PDM boutique in Manhattan whenever covid passes, but having watched/read a ton of reviews it seems to smell like everyone is describing. I get the semi-medicinal cherry note, I get the incense and tobacco, but it seems very weak to me. At first I chalked it up to the fact that I'd been wearing Layton as a signature scent for weeks and since they both share some of the same notes, maybe I had become anosmic to the those and was only able to detect the notes that were unique to Herod, but this video has piqued my curiosty. I also noticed that the little black and gold pamphlet that comes in PDM boxes looked strangely faded. The cap seems to weigh about as much as the cap from my bottle of Layton which is for sure authentic, but after watching a few of these reviews I've gotten curious. Fragrancex seems to have a pretty stellar reputation in the community as far as authenticity goes. I'm wondering if these new fakes were decent enough to fool them too. Even watching this video it's kind of tough to discern the difference side by side. Unfortunately I'm out of state riding out the pandemic with family and my bottle is back in NYC so I can't compare it to the video atm, but I can't wait to get back home and see. Figure I'll just take it to the PDM boutique and ask them myself.
Well, was it real?
I got herod from Maxaroma and the code on the bottom goes from left to right is mine fake?
Hi, not related to this video but I find your reviews good and wanted to know what you feel about une rose by Fredric Malle also which one should I buy if I intend to une rose or oudh ispahan? Reply will be greatly appreciated.
How can I be sure that is not fake? Suggestion watching batch code or other? Thanks
Hi Steven! Nice to see that you are doing well. Thank you this video, I purchased a fake Xerjoff Naxos and it was clear from the moment I opened the box that is was fake... The juice had a green hint and the bottle was completely rounded.. The worst ~250$ I've ever spent...
Oh wow. Thank you so much for telling me this. This is the first time I hear about that fragrance being counterfeited. I'm sorry to hear that.
@@Redolessence No problem, I think it's really important to share our stories to make notice of what can happen.
Please do a video on the sites you DO trust. Ive been using fragrancex and havent had any complaints but want to know others thoughts.
I got scammed once buying Paco Rabanne One Million Prive, the bottle actually had visible glue where the front was attached. I tried to return it and the ebay seller was no longer listed. Recently I bought some Creed Aventus. I found some listings in the $200 dollar range, and I decided I wasn't going to take a chance with something that expensive so I just paid full price from the Creed site.
wow...thanks for the tip. I never knew you can tell how much of juice is left by using phone light. it works for layton bottle as well..!
Steven can you tell me if the fake one has embosed box?
Valuable information
Thanks Steven.
Many thanks!
I just got a Kalan from Aura fragrance. There's no line in the center edge of the bottle it's diagonal if you look straight down on cap across red part. Also the atomizer is white not black. Lid is heavy but inside there's a circle dead center inside lid but you can't see it outside. Also the gray plastic insert is off center. Batch code on bottom is straight across or horizontal. 3 looks really good. Liquid is way above horses head. Card board stamp inside black insert inside box looks bad. Part that lid sticks up out of is folded over. Outside box looks really good. Kalan isn't printed on front of bottle. Silver atomizer is scratched up a bit.
Is it fake do you think? How does it smell?
Hmmm, my Herod seems a lot like the fake except for the cap weight and nozzle color. It has a bit of ill-defined writing and the batch code is parallel. I bought it from FragranceNet though?
I would say you're safe then. The cap is one of the biggest giveaways.
Same here, I got mine from fragrancenet. The caps heavy but the crispness and boldness of the 1743 and parfums de marly writing is more like the fake. I hope I didn't get a fake fragrence :/
Michael Rogers What concerns me most about fakes is the potential for exposure to toxic chemicals or biohazard materials.
I thought fragnet only sells 100% authentic? Does your fragrance not last? Maybe you should do a side by side get a decant of some real stuff
Jack Class I thought they did too, it’s just that my Herod shares some similarities to the fake presented here. The longevity with my bottle is not an issue. I sprayed it once while watching this video yesterday and I can still smell it when I enter my bedroom today.
Great idea to raise awareness for this! Just to further what you said on the bottle batch codes - the orientation doesn't have a bearing on if its fake or authentic, as mine is horizontal at the bottom of the sticker. Otherwise I've got a superb smelling, kong lasting, niche quality fake that has an identical bottle to your real one! Haha
My new layton i just bought has every signs that it is real, but the color of the spray nozzle is white... I also have herod and there the spray nozzle is black... I purchased herod at official retailer a while ago (in store) ... Should i be worried about the spray nozzle being white ?? Can someone confirm this please ? Batch code on the layton is 013901, Thx in advance...
The spray nozzle on my Layton is white as well and it'a a real one for sure. I think only on Herod it's supposed to be black (maybe some others as well, not Layton though) to match the sprayer. Hope this could help you and if you're still in doubt just order a sample of the respective fragrance and compare the scent.
Great video Steven I've had people try too sell me fake fragrances through Facebook
I'm really sorry to hear that.
