Are Fragrance Discounters Legit? Parfums De Marly VS Discounters
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- Today I test an authentic Parfums de Marly bottle bought from their website versus the same bought at a major fragrance discounter. Is there a difference? Are they authentic?
PLEASE keep buying from the retailers so I can keep buying from discounters...I've been in this game for over a decade...if you honestly think discounters are fake or somehow give you a different fragrance you have no clue what you're talking about. So yea keep spending all taht money at retailers...i love getting the same shit you got for half the price.
Bro if the discounters I’m happpy w the fakes. Ill keep my 30-60% thank you
Research the import sites like Importyeti and Importgenius and see where the discounters are obtaining their bottles from. You'll find Dubai, Singapore and Hong Kong as some of the locations along with the Netherlands.
Is fragrance net legit?
Friends, all these are copies from the Emirates that you think are original perfumes. You in the US are too naive. Shake your heads and come to your senses😂
@@B7litzyes been in the game forever very legit but only
Issue is sometimes shipping can take awhile
One problem is that you're comparing boxes and bottles that were manufactured several years apart. The houses change the design. What you need to do is compare the atomizer nozzle and inner assembly with the spray cap off to a bottle with a similar batch date purchased from an authorized seller. Doesn't Maxaroma charge list price for Parfums de Marly?
It's not fake but it is old and sometimes i feel the bottle wasn't kept in a cool dark place ... i have gotten bottles that smell similar, but something was off
Agree. I bought Tuscan Leather 100ml for 212 euro. The atomizer is messed up, most of the time squirts rather than spraying. I also bought the 100ml F* Fabulous for 290 euro. 100ml. Horrible atomizer and very bad liquid. Smells toxic compared to original shops. I would never suggest anyone to buy on discounters. Never ever. Always something off, most of the time is the liquid.
Just to shed some light on this, Maxaroma is 100% legit. They are also officials distributors for PDM. I actually went to PDM to ask and they said they actually are official. This is from the company. The just control their prices
They should be authorized to sell PdM as they're charging SRLP at Maxaroma. You should have asked PdM why don't they list them on their site as an official seller. They only list Bloomingdale's, Saks, Nordstrom and another store or two in NYC as authorized sellers.
Wrong question are ALL discount shops check the date manufactured if has 2020 has difference than 2023 bottles
I have been buying fragrances for the last 2 and a half years but then when I hear this I begin to think, are they real? I'm like everyone who tries to save some money. My favorite niche is PDM. I hpe I purchase the real deal. Thanks for the tip, that's good to know. Have a nice day. Be Bless
Yes 100%
Maxaroma is my favorite
They're good. But, sold me a bottle that's 2 years old in a few months..
@@JohnQuickWick not good
@tonymarinelli7304 yeah. Thank God it was only a 60 dahwuh bottle of colonia essenza. I won't buy 🔥 deal signs anymore from them. It's probably like a restaurant having "specials" on food going bad soon.
Max Roma they have authentic packaging but they do have fake juice. I have a mini experience with them. Thank you for the video.
Discounters are my go to, I only buy from retail if they go on sale and have lower price than discounters which sometimes does happen.
Checkfresh, Trust pilot, and cosmetic calculator. For bottom of the bottle numbers.
Maxaroma label is different and clearly looks fake. I don’t understand why can’t you see it. Even the spray projection of maxaroma was not up to the mark. These days Turkish and east European replicas are almost identical. Some people here boost that they buy from discounter and ITS REAL, where did these discounter buy from ? Apart from one major online perfume store no one else imports perfumes ? These discounter buys from local suppliers who sells all kind of stuff
I never get the same performance from discounters
I purchased a fragrance a few years ago that is now discontinued. I remember it well as I went through a whole bottle. I recently purchased the same fragrance on a discount website and once I received it I checked the batch code. It was almost 4 years old. It didn't smell the same, similar but not the same. More like pencil shavings. Very disappointed as I can't wear it. It's a crap shoot when you buy from these sites.
Fragrances get reformulated so it can be a tad bit different
I’ve had bad experiences with certain discountners. Therefore I always stick to fragrance net, never had any issues with them til this day
Gotcha, I heard good things about them
My issue with them is how often you buy something from them and turns out the don't actually have it in stock....then the wait game starts. I've waited weeks before cancelling cause they hadn't gotten it in yet. If they STATED before the customer purchased it, and you chose to wait, that's fine...but they don't do that.
My parfums de marly has the same batch code as yours
It most likely is legit, but as you mention it could had been used and returned, which makes the main issue, how much juice was in it. Being that it looks like you can't see through the bottle, if you didn't use any from PDM bottle, you should have weighed them using grams, and if they only a few grams difference, it should be just about full. If there's a 10% or more less weight, than obviously you got 10% or more less juice.
I received a leaking bottle near the sprayer on a discounter. i guess discounter sell at a cheaper price due to some issues with the item that didnt passed quality standards.
Not always . I had been selling Amouage and some niche fragrances on eBay and Mercari and now starting to sell on Shopify and creating my own web page. Some time if there is a problem your discounter should tell it to its customers which I do and still a lot of people buy because it’s at least 30-50% cheaper than retail so why buy retail ?
Bro you are bugging 😂😂
I usually buy from distributor and resell on eBay and other apps. So far no one complained so why pay retail ?
I’ve been wanting to get into this but haven’t found any reputable distributors. I understand if you don’t want to provide any real info but if you could point me in a general direction it would be highly appreciated 🙏🏽
Where do you find distributors
@@VitaViralolfactoryfactoryllq, fragrancelord, fragrancebuy, ETC!!! There’s at least 3 more I can think of besides those too lol.
Do you know anything about foreverlux??
Any information on “Fragrancelord” and “Le Maison Du Parfum”?
Fragrancelord is legit
Think discounters sell mb defective batches of the fragrance something they're not 100% happy with the "JUICE", mb a mistake here or there on the formulation but they still bottle and send to discounters to make some from that defective batch i think
You go to realize that some companies make excess batches and left overs are bought by third party sellers
Just curious, why do you say automizer? Atomizer is the word, like atoms.. It's sounds like atamizer.. Just never heard anyone say automizer..
that’s what the little spray thing is called😭 everyone who’s into fragrances like that knows it’s called an atomizer
@@eventhorizonsingularity that's what I'm saying! It's an atomizer and and he's pronouncing it like "automizer".. Are you daft? Read my comment again.. I own around 250 bottles, I'm pretty sure I know what a atomizer is..
Jomashop real deal too
Yeah, I bought from them and they seem to have legit fragrances.
I find Parfums de marly quality control is pretty poor and on the decline. Some of the paint can bubble or flake and they are cutting costs with new bottle like Oajan going from gold caps to now basic silver. Not to mention the fragrance % is now less , quality on brands such as Xerjoff is alot higher imo .
hellow bro is your carlisle batch 2023?, how performance of your carlisle? Moderate/ above moderate / beast?
How long projection time and longevity time base on your experience?
Yeah it is 2023, performance is minimal. Does not create a scent bubble like other fragrances I have.
i had a 2022 batch, it didn't perform too well at the start so i just let it sit over the summer and it now performs waaaay better
@@emperorpalpatine7516which scent was it? Carlisle ?
What does your caps weigh?
Not sure but they are both solid and weigh the same.
What is the best place to purchase pdm Greenley?
I’ve been purchasing from JOMASHOP for a couple years now. I’ve spent close to $10,000 on everything from niche to designer to cheapies. All of them have been authentic. PDM, Xerjoff, Kilian, Byredo, Mancera, Nishane, Bond No9…etc.. I even found a few discontinued frags on there that weren’t marked up because of rarity like they would be on eBay. I’ve purchased from Maxaroma, and FragranceBuy as well and they were both legit. I prefer JOMASHOP though because they usually have things the others don’t and the prices seem to be the lowest.
this one is unnecessarily expensive...sometimes the price exceeds that of their Exclusif line i mean wtf 😅😂
Fragnet 100% real. Maxaroma 100% real. Fragx real. And all are official distributors of pdm and many other niche brands. Your bottles are from different years. Stop being silly
Wait fragrance net is legit?
I’m so confused why the legend spirit I wanna but says “new packaging” I didn’t know legend spirit by mint Blanc had new packaging for the cologne 🤷♂️
@@B7litz I do believe that just means it’s new in a package. They suck with wording on their website lol I’ve seen that before and it comes just wrapped up in a cellophane. I think that’s all they mean.
@@irishangelfromheaven the box looks barely different. Do you mind looking to help me figure this out? I would really appreciate it
@@irishangelfromheaven also they all say “new packaging” except the 6.7oz it’s crazy weird… I’m new to fragrances so I’m confused and don’t know any of this stuff
So, they are used and labelled as new? Scam...
Discounter fragrances seem weaker than house bought fragrances. I have always thought the discounters that sell decants give you weak juice. Almost like they decant half the bottle then refill it back full with perfumers alcohol and resell it for a new full bottle. Smells the same but performance sucks!
😂😂
Nonsense
Stop spreading misinformation
And how do they seal it again 😂
@@sarwarkhan1185 to be sure you don’t think they can’t reseal these boxes with clear plastic wrapper. lol! Come on! These people are professional criminals. You all can say what you want but I’ve thought this for years! I’ve bought decants and then turned around and bought full bottles from the same company. The decants are stronger and better performing than the “ Brand New “ full bottle! I don’t claim this without experiencing it first hand!
Oldest vid is only a month old. This is a layman's evaluation...At Best! I wouldn't bet the house on the opinion given here.
Man STHUP
If it’s not sealed from the factory it’s potentially suspect as you can buy a bottle take out the juice and refill it with h the juice from a 30$ dupe that smells almost identical and return it to the seller and whalahh you got a 300$ frag for 30$ minus the time spent
15-20 mins maybe . But then someone can get that legit bottle with the dupe juice and get the short end of the stick unfortunately if they actually keep it .
Not true I had testers I sold and no one complained . So it depends where you get it. If you get it from a seller with 80% rating then yea got real issues . If buying from a seller with 95% or above rating then I would buy with out thinking twice .
It's "voila", not wallah 😂 and most places won't accept returned fragrances, unless they have a way to tell if you've opened it.
People don't care they will save a dollar and get fake shit and leave a review that ain't true 😂
Discounters will give u real then u will get a fake lol I just buy retail I don’t care about the price just the any real thing without the anxiety
❤️🔥
I got habdan from Amazon should I be concerned?
It depends what shop it's shipped from. Everything on Amazon isn't authentic
Sorry but i will stick to buying straight from the company. If you dont have the money then don't buy it 😂😂
Cash cows be cash cows.
Pretty idiotic take.
I bet my cheaper colognes smell better then yours and last longer thats the crazy part😂
This makes no sense.
Hes probably broke and flex on the internet 😂
