Tips on how to spot a fake Chanel fragrance

**Hope you guys can understand me talking! LOL**

Some tips said in the video and given by Phoe_Line on Ebay:

*The color is wrong.
*The glass has streaking or messy corners.
*The printing on the underside of the box is faded, globby, or isn't what it should say.
*The threads inside the cap (if any) don't screw onto the bottle or doesn't fit
*The CC Chanel logo isn't sharp and clear
*The description on the base of the bottle can be scraped off with a fingernail.
*The name of the perfume is spelled incorrectly.
*Any of the ingredients is spelled incorrectly.

Note 1: there are legitimate differences between productions in France versus New York, and they also vary over years. The cello should be folded at the ends and glued down with neat circles or lines of transparent glue. The glue is light duty and should come undone easily. If corners are already lifted, this is a good sign. Look for neatly glued cello in the picture or ask for a new picture. There should be some 2-3mm overlap on the back of the box where the cello edges meet.

Note 2: The color of a parfum should be slightly darker/more concentrated that eau de parfum. And eau de parfum should be darker than eau de toilette which is darker than eau de cologne which is darker than voile eau de parfum. If you don't see a difference, that is okay. But if parfum is lighter than eau de parfum as seen below, you have a problem.

Your English is very understandable notreveh. I saw your reflection from one of the colognes and you look very attractive, plus your accent makes it better! =)

I am from Colombia myself. Se habla espanol? If not, I speak English good. =)

@Garedenofeden Hey Garedenofeden, thanks for being so kind in your comment! I'm happy that the video was able to help you :)

about spanish I do not talk it but we have a lot of common words between your language and mine (portuguese) so I understand a lot of things in spanish :P

Hello! I read on some blog that authentic bottles are perfectly flat from each top corner to the bottle neck. The phony bottle has an upward slanted effect from the corner to the neck. I have this on my bottle of tester. Do you have it on your bottle of Allure Homme Sport or not? Thank you.

@sergematurin Hi Serge. My bottles of Allure Sport and Allure Edition Blanche which was purchased in a Duty Free have this upward slanted effect, but it is not very prominent, it is a very soft upward shape. I don't think that this perfectly flat aspect is 100% true when talking about Allure Bottles, and I also do not think that I can find fake bottles in a Duty Free. You probably have an original bottle.

what one is better? allure or platinum?

[notreveh]

@deebob48 Both are designed for an specific occasion. But I would say Allure Sport fits better in my style.

@notreveh Jajaja! I never hear Portuguese here! Why do you guys never come up here in Colombia?! I have many friends that go to Brazil and they love it!

Oh yeah, and from 5:20, the word is "fell", not "fall" or "felt". Eres muy guapo! = )

Good video! This is very helpful. Thanks for sharing. I know what it's like to get a fake bottle =/

Your top is not broken... you will have to twist off the top, so the black top around the sprayer stays on.

@notreveh Thank you very much for your answer.
