[@schawla85]

its not fake bro.... its just the vintage bottle produced in 2007. It had a light blue cap.

[@donyale2688]

sunny_htc That shit is Fake Bro...And.He's Right for posting this video ..I got two fake bottles of this exact same cologne and that's how people can get hurt for selling FAKE SHIT !!!!!! 💯

[@radtech1995]

Al Williams no its not you cn check the batch code on checkfresh.com

[@sO_RoNerY]

Al Williams Then get it from Macys or fragrancenet.com.

[@davidpage407]

I've ordered 7 bottles from fragrance.net never got a fake.

[@philipcoffman4372]

I bought fake from ebay seller "russtai-34" ....fake and obviously fake

[@justiceanthony8203]

I'm a victim too....a friend sold a fake125ml bottle to me. I gave him 60 Ghana Cedis (roughly $33) at first, and i after I found out it was fake I didn't pay the difference.

[@gerardoortiz2180]

Were thid you buy the real one

[@TheMattyFresh]

I have a bottle from over a year ago and it has the same cap as your so called FAKE one and I know that mine is real because I bought it at Dillards

[@Var_scents]

I never trusted eBay that sight just looks faulty, Amazon is the place you want to order from if not a actual fragrance sight.

[@Alanitoo]

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 :)

[@chuckphilpott3423]

I hope you now realize both are real. Check out robes08 newer review of thus cologne. Vintage versions sometimes look n smell diff

[@Bossmanrocks]

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.

[@allegri9cl]

Ebay is very tricky.. i think i’ve gotten 50-50. 50% fake and 50% of the time original. Esp some tom ford perfumes they have v good fake these days v hard to tell.

[@chrisspearline767]

It's so difficult to figure out on eBay which one is real or not. They show what looks like a real bottle but it's around 30.00

[@mrhagashas]

So i bought one from walmart and it is made in uk, ive been doin some research and only found two countries where they'd make it; italy and germany, so is made in UK fake?

[@Bossmanrocks]

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.

[@DRCE777]

7:16 Fake. see the batch code 7030 stamped instead of being engraved. That's one indication of it being fake.

[@21vanilla]

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.

[@rgablejr]

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!

[@julzmax956]

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.

[@markrelloso8234]

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.

[@T.K.9]

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]

+eroOtoko1 well if your using light blue at night or during the cold that can shorten it.

[@PJ-yq9ry]

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.

[@Usernamebreh]

Dude I bought a fake one on purpose that's called blue sky instead of light blue and it smells exactly the same as the real thing and the sente last all day.

[@mgonzales8905]

I bought my bottle from macys and got a free gift my bottle is not fake its frosted and has a light blue cap

[@trancendent]

@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.

[@lenardjagurin3083]

Lmao thats the old version

[@Rico4801]

True

[@kimheibl6969]

i just bought one yesterday and mine is definately a fake cus the real one does last a long time and the smell isn t the same and in my bttl it looks very watered down to...

[@steverobinson4995]

How does your bottle look watered down?

[@JB-pf5ve]

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.

[@franksinatra2008]

QUESTION : on the sticker located at the bottom of the bottle WHERE DOES IT SAY ITS MADE ...mine says UK ....so far it has the cap and velvet box like the original non convex bottom

[@johnflowers2736]

One of the big disadvantages of ordering cologne on line is getting stuff that's similar and not the name brand.

[@johnflowers2736]

In short, I buy my cologne in either retail or at discount stores 👍

[@StanleyRC1]

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.

[@hedegaard8]

Action starts only at 2m30. Interesting jibber jabber at the beginning about himself and his friend, going shopping like little school girls for perfume, but not really relevant to how to you tell them apart.

[@TheClonemate]

i got one from my girl. she bought it at Macy's but it smells awful nothing like my last one. luckily they allowed us to return it. don't think it was fake but the smell was like a Hobo no joke..

[@pengs100]

ur mom

[@Rico4801]

I'll never forget all of D&G light blue bottles looked like this back in the day also the liquid was lighter.

[@moltoking2010]

BlackVegeta9000 does the new light blue intense smell any different?

[@trancendent]

@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.

[@nightlore000]

Now it's made in France! ...

[@DimitrisT1797.]

hello, congratulations for your channel, what do you think about fragrancex? does it have authentic perfumes? is it reliable?

[@EuroRSN]

This entire video could have been under 2 minutes long.

[@jujuguy2323]

DG should stop making cologne. They are way too weak. Why do they even put this on market for sale anyway. Just not worth it

[@6candies1]

Thank you for sharing, it helps!

[@nightlore000]

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 +

[@jrt907]

Lo siento pero ambos son originales

[@zc3853]

I see a lot of people on here telling this man that he is wrong. You all talk about the bottle and this and that, but you all don't address the FACT that he said the scent fades within an hoir. That right there should tell you all that something is wrong and that he may just be correct about getting a fake.

[@ChizowX]

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.

[@alicianainwonderland5942]

Try fragrancenet has good deals and legit deals.

[@nightlore000]

I never buy fragrance online .. D&G change their packaging from time to time .. ..

[@keaulana1]

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.

[@dondizm2678]

Lmao this sounds like it’s legit fake but low and behold it is the real deal. 😭😂😂😂

[@richardcowan7353]

Maybe it was diluted

[@nickolaspeacock3455]

Question...I bought a bottle at a department store for a slightly discounted price because it was opened... my bottle says made in Paris... is this correct being that dolce is an Italian company?

[@firstclass305]

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

[@theynamedmesarah6937]

I just realized the same with the women's light blue that I got off Tophatter... 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

[@jeacks100]

ok

[@soulfly4076]

wow what a huge difference in the caps ! watch for the ones not made in the UK , those fake...

[@anya6498]

same with me....but i got my money back ..lol what a mass.

[@samoo8933]

use fragrance x or fragrance net or from stores never buy fragrance from ebay or amazon most of them fake

[@mdior8112]

thanks for this video. i just requested a refund for one i bought on eBay and the photo is exactly as the counterfeit one you described.

[@blancpomme2690]

This is the older one. It's authentic I could guarantee it.

[@llatham5209]

+Mehzz I mean that's fairly new fragrance there's no old one

[@bart4543]

they are both real this guy is dumb

[@trancendent]

@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.

[@jortega61924]

It's fake. Older bottles shouldn't be that weak.

[@JloveLamar]

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

[@x3hx]

i bought this perfume too, its not a tester its not an original its a chinese production that runs around the world i bought this in mexico in 50 usd and the scent its not bad but in an hour its gone , i alredy had the dolce gabbana the one and the scent you will smell its the same until hours you can go to the night club and come back and still the same nice scent

[@elizmaybgriffintwo2772]

I ordered one on eBay for $43, It arrived today. 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.

[@Jerryyy6802]

He posted this over a decade ago

[@rgablejr]

Great video! I was given a bottle of 'Ligjt

[@aamelly]

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!!

[@dawnhouzz]

Thank you for sharing. It is helpful to know.

[@dustinlewis24]

jesus this girl takes soooo long to get to the point and is cying about it being fake well news flash genius u pay 20 bucks for a 90 dollar bottle of colonge its prohley gonna be fake

[@willgale1859]

The thing that tipped me off right away was the cap on the fake.

[@Whoareyoupeople900]

Omg I bought this as a gift for my bf and right when i saw this I looked at the box and it doesn't look the same. Thank god.

[@panx636]

Thank you very much

[@Ghyll]

good review bro.Hope to see more fake/original reviews from other youtubers.Todays conterfeits are very well made,

[@mikeandspizike]

Bro ur friends seems fake,,,, the cap is wrong ur bottle seems legit unlike his

[@victorsick19]

Where is the original made at u did not said that I have one made in uk is that fake where is the original cologne come from

[@marksculture4786]

their are 3 places the bottle could have been processed from. i am not quite sure about the year, so far there are only 3 formulations. France, UK, and Germany. Any other countries listed would have been fake.

[@Ernesto1za]

Why my says made in chine? :(

[@sO_RoNerY]

*Faaaaake*

[@sO_RoNerY]

Doubt ero. Especially not one hour.

[@davidandemilyexpress196]

They are both genuine - they changed the cap a few years ago

[@viperd1979]

I just bought one from Nordstrom is it real ? box is totally different ?

[@ExotiiicRL]

What size is this ?

[@berealsupportive2744]

Trancendent? Are you still on this channel hopefully? I think you sound so adorable and I want to know where you are from :) Nice hands and voice. Thanks for the review. This is 1 of my favorite perfumes =)

[@beatzbymurda9802]

I got mine at macy's

[@Creyo1992]

That really a fake one for sure...

[@mislyn7051]

Wow, need to know info. Thanks

[@yad2917]

It's not fake. That's an older bottle. Do a little research before posting videos like this.

[@dereksettle918]

I feel as if I'm beating a dead horse with this comment, but your bottle was most likely legit.. that was the look D&G used on the early bottles.. I am sold on light blue, D&G the one, and VR Spice Bomb.. most likely your bottle has set too long.

[@Eddy-09]

So much missing information in this video. Now he has everyone confused because he forgot to do some research and realize the original juice came in the bottle in the left, the right one is also most likely legit too, but they changed a couple things. Neither are a fake.

[@johnnye4204]

Good lookin out bro!

[@MultiLee7777]

This video is a lie I have the one he has on the left. I bought it from Dillard's a department store. The only reason it is different is because the bottle is the first design made back in 2007.

[@Eddy-09]

I completely agree. I also bought the original back in 2007 or so and actually prefer the smell, even though they are very similar.

[@escaflowne789]

I buy mine at Macy's

[@waykool698]

That's the only place I buy fragrances. They have fresh and legit scents. I don't trust any other stores, except for Nordstrom. They also have good fragrances

[@jortega61924]

+waykool698 Macy's doesn't always have fresh juice. I bought from Macy's that was 8 months old. I don't know if u would classify that as fresh.

[@InscentiveAdvice]

take this vid down

[@donyale2688]

tpietropaolo01 He's Right for posting this video up ...People that sell Fake cologne Really need to be FUCKED UP !!!!!

[@alialyassin9498]

Do more research your friends version was introduced in 1994 and you "fake" one was introduced in 2007 and it's real I used to own a bottle

[@ninoy07]

Thank you so much!!! Good thing I got the original---just few hours ago. :)

[@jeffreyreyes7653]

No both fake

[@EJ2933]

I bought both from a department store/fragrance shop they are both real, they both last a long time. I have had two of each bottle no complaints.

[@ricarteborja7229]

i bought the same brand (D&G Light Blue) from ebay. it was my first time to buy an item from that online shop. but to my dismay, the item was obviously fake. the scent does not even last for an hour.

[@cubbz5]

the one on the left is not fake it's just an older one...
