Tom Ford Lost Cherry FAKEOUT

throwback
Welcome back Ladies and Gentledudes.. In this episode.. I tackle FAKE FRAGS..
We are all looking for a great deal.. For a great price. In this tragic episode, I examine a two bottles of Tom Ford Lost Cherry that I picked up off of eBay for a steeply discounted price. I did loads of research to determine if these were fakes or not.. This video is the result of that research.
PSA: Fragrances, colognes and the like are considered luxury items. With this in mind, there will always be counterfeiters out there, looking for those that want discount luxury. Many times, these fragrances will be boxed cheaply (although these weren't) or will not contain the correct ingredients to completely recreate the original fragrance. To save yourself time and energy, save your duckets and buy authentic.

this is some real quality research, all a one stop shop in this video. Thank you so much for sharing!!!

[@luckyraspberry3712]

Very informative video. Was able to do comparisons with my authentic Tom Ford bottles and deemed my new Lost Cherry frag to be authentic. Subbed

[@daman42kg]

Thank you for the support!

[@kiwimitts2]

Me too! Thank you!

[@alanaburrell6611]

thank you so much for this video!!

I thought I caught a steal on Mercari for a 100ml bottle. Did my research and found that the seller sold me a “100ml bottle” with a barcode under it for the 50ml bottle of Lost Cherry. I didn’t even know that fake fragrances were a thing. Stuff like this makes me want to not even indulge in fragrances anymore.

[@elisabeth400]

Good video! Thank you.

[@am_285]

nice video, what if the codes on the flacon and the packedge are not the same? is it 100% a fake then?

[@sweetmalissa]

Good info- thanks!

[@daman42kg]

Thank you checking out the video!

[@_TVC15_]

Thanks for the video!! Very helpful. I just got mine today (ebay) you assumed real Lost Cherry has a one of those theft proof barcode things on the INSIDE of the box-mine was in the outside plastic packaging. Is this a red flag?

[@daman42kg]

Hello Kimberly! None of the Tom Ford fragrances I've purchased in-store have had the theft tag inside the box, so it being on the outside wouldn't be outside of the realm of ordinary.

[@CharlieZelenoff]

Make yr videos shorter my friend. I respect you for helping us. I am looking at a 50ml on Ebay for 70 of LC. Seems fake...

[@viktoriyashiskova3130]

Why you want this one? It’s feminine smell. Take another!

[@daman42kg]

Thank you for the insight Charlie, it is appreciated.

[@daman42kg]

Viktoriya, I feel as if this fragrance could be unisex. What are your favorite unisex scents?

[@Kellergirl]

@Three Stacks People can wear what they want. I'm a female, and I wear so called "masculine" fragrances. Why is it your business who wears what?

[@mishelleforever3483]

Thank you a lot

[@mexiazteca00]

Well what about the juice and smell? Did they last? Do they smell authentic ?

[@toyetaniel5272]

That’s my exact question. Lol

[@daman42kg]

@@toyetaniel5272 The fragrance assumed to be real has approximately 2 hrs of projection and lasts for about 3 hrs. It smells authentic and I definitely wear this one out (pleasant on the nose; subtle, yet very noticeable when close).

[@daman42kg]

Hello Adri, the fragrance assumed to be real has approximately 2 hrs of projection and the scent fades after about 3 hrs. It smells authentic (calm/pleasant on the nose and subtle, yet very noticeable when close.)

[@deerey7644]

I got very confused....are the lost cherry perfumes both fake or one is fake? Sorry Im trying to purchase another on line and dont want to get duped!

[@daman42kg]

Hello! #1 has the malt characteristics of products sold at major retailers and wore authentically, so #1 is ✅

[@eliasmavrokefalos3358]

Thank you for the video. I have the impression that both of the "lost cherry" items you have there are not authentic. And definitely you have mixed the boxes:) The box on the right is a much better copy of the original than the box on the left. Would be more helpful to compare the two atomizer cups as well. Thank you anyway. Very helpful overall.

[@daman42kg]

Thank you for the information Elias, I appreciate the information. I will examine the atomizers when I produce my next video. Are you a fragrance collector also?

[@daman42kg]

Hello Elias! Unfortunately, I believe you may be right. I recently have been trying products from Imaginary Authors. I appreciate the insight!

[@zionerick9414]

Instablaster.

[@SUBIESAMURAI07]

I bought one with batch code A89 oud wood 100 ml ? Isn’t that to short ?

[@daman42kg]

Hello FCC, according to checkfresh.com (a website that allows consumers to check batch codes) that is a legit batch code. The production date is listed as 08-2019.

[@tristenluna6024]

hey man i think there both fake also when u take the spray tip off real tom ford has plastic all fakes hav a metal ring

[@tristenluna6024]

like take off the spray tip off and look on top of the bottle *without spray tip* it should be all plastic inside

[@aaronb3745]

People pay $50 for $300 cologne and are surprised that it’s fake 🤣🤣

[@yellowduck5115]

I’m curious, do you find that these fragrances are safe to wear on skin? I have one I know is a fake, which is fine with me because it smells lovely. My only concern is safety.

[@pottymouthmexican]

come on man that long ass vid and u didnt take it out of da box? no wonder u got 12 subs

[@glennbald7650]

But what does it smell like?

[@daman42kg]

The fragrance assumed to be real smells ok, but it has started to become more suspect with time. The cherry notes really pop, but fade rapidly.

[@allusa2009]

Compare lost cherry to lost cherry only!

[@makeupbygloria]

Dude your soleil blanc bottle shouldn’t come in that type of boxes

[@ArmaniTVWK]

Video is too long, good information but somewhat all over the place making it confusing, figure a way to make these shorter and you’re gold, add some enthusiasm as well bro! 😊👌

[@Ivoness]

Talk talk talk talk talk 😳

[@toyetaniel5272]

Does it smell like the original?

[@daman42kg]

It smells significantly weak as the base notes begin to kick in. It was definitely a lesson in online purchasing..

[@aaronb3745]

I have real lost cherry and fake and they smell the same. The fake just doesn’t last as long

[@enaeberg]

Both looks fake.

[@makeupbygloria]

Lol

[@aaronb3745]

I don’t want to pay $300 just to shower it off at the end of the day I bought fake and it smells great
