Is my Green Irish Tweed Real?

So i've had my GIT for close to 3 weeks, and i've never noticed this until today. Apparently i can just rub my fingure on the sticker, and the gold lettering rubs off. Does that make my GIT fake?

Hm... I really don't know. It looks iffy, but I don't have much experience with the 2.5oz (I have the 1 and 4 ozs). Also, never used Beauty Encounter, though I have heard they're a pretty good online store.

Play it safe and find out. I'd get a sample from The Perfumed Court ASAP to verify it.

I thought it might pertain to you, since you've got the 1oz with the same sticker.

Not fake but old... It was probably really old stock GIT is old as hell, that tape will start to deteriorate after a period of time.

it's the real one, you can also verify , at the back of the bottle there's a serial number and if you take off the black sprayer it's supposed to be white. just by looking at your bottle i can tell you it's the real one .

Definitely looks fake judging by the bottle (gold embossed lettering) and the black sprayer. The last smaller bottle I'd purchased had no embossing and came with a gold sprayer.

Would be surprised if that is a "tester" bottle, especially is the writing comes off so easily. Screams home "ink-jet" printer.

-sorry :/

Look for a lot number. If it has a lot number, it is real. Also, look at the quality of the lettering on the bottle. If it is inconsistent, wavy, poor quality, it's fake. Lack of a lot number plus the crappy lettering = fake. Good luck.

its fake if it smears, bottle letters never smear on real ones....

@bouncerhiphop same here i got 75 ml bottle from one of the best department stores in london and is exacly the same withought the sticker but there is a sticker at the bottom of the bottle which say's green irish tweed. the best way to tell is to smell it inmo if it smells natraul and smooth than its genuine cos fakes would not spend money to make it smell natraul.

from amazon review, it seems beautyencounter sold fake Bois du Portugal. also, since when is the 2.5 creed sprayer nozzle black? it's supposed to be gold. unless the lighting in the vid is messed up.

i got a big bottle of MI from fragrancenet and the gold paint on the Creed logo of the bottle was pealing off but it smells just like a real one.

looks exactly like mine which is legit, but mine doesn't have the sticker

hope that helps. peace :)

Just checked my bottle. It has a similar sticker with Green Irish Tweed on the bottom. So it looks like you might have the legit thing.
