I've owned many of those style of bottles and the best way to open these is not twisting but tapping the stopper with something plastic like a remote control. Tap it a few times and will it just budge. 😊
@darlastarbuck5 жыл бұрын
Oh man, what a shame! The only way I've unstuck stoppers is by putting the bottle in the freezer and then using a tea towel to twist. But they've always been vintage bottles, a new one shouldn't give you such trouble! Looking forward to the review. So sorry for the bummer bottle!

Thanks Danielle. I have many CHANEL parfum bottles. Most bought new from CHANEL boutiques and I never had this issue before. This was a first for me and honestly, it shook me! I tried very hard to keep it classy and calm on camera for you guys but trust you me, I am very very distressed about this!

I've had the same issue with one of the big 250ml Tom Ford Private Blend decanters. Force doesn't help. They told me to use a hammer on the side of the bottle where the stopper is. I was skeptical but it worked.

I just received my bottle of Coromandel parfum from Fedex yesterday. Guess what? The glass stopper doesn’t move at all completely stuck does not budge. I twisted, I tugged and I turned. Nothing moved. My roommate tried as well. Was ready to send it back to Chanel for an exchange when I read a post on a vintage perfume blog regarding stuck and jammed glass perfume stoppers. One poster said to put the bottle in the freezer for 10 minutes. The cold will slightly constrict the glass without affecting the fragrance. Holy sh%t. It worked perfectly. the stopper twisted out with no effort. Now I’m enjoying this opulent, dense, beautiful fragrance.

Oh, that was such drama unfolding in front of my eyes! Good luck with the exchange. Re: "shouldn't have to buy the creams to prolong the fragrance", I so agree. I just adore Biarritz ( we are JUST a few days into spring here), but lasts very little time on my skin, so I purchased the lotion online, they wrapped it beautifully in chanel paper and pink Biarritz ribbon, and they sent me a a free Gabrielle Essence Sample. Haven't tried it yet, look forward to the review of that one when you have a moment. :)

The only reason one should buy all the body perfume products is if one loves them on their own which is what I do with some fragrances like N°5! I love the N°5 body range on its own, without necessarily having to wear the N°5 perfume the same day I use the N°5 body products. Oh and GABRIELLE ESSENCE review is coming very soon! xoxo
@smithpatricemary5 жыл бұрын
@@SuperDacob Oh, yes I agree. I love to wear the Chanel no 5 dry body oil on its own, it has SOME gutso on my skin and I find it unnecessary to layer it with the parfum. Unfortunately my beloved Biarritz ( on my skin) needs a bit of help ( and I meant to say a lemon Biarittz ribbon in my previous comment, not pink- that one came with my Paris-Riviera). I loved the CC scarabs you placed nearby for good luck, I was told by my grandmother that she believed them to be good luck and she gave me a pair of fabulous Scarab earrings, that DID give me good luck the nights I wore them.. Their luck worked for you, I enjoyed your review immensely. Thankyou Dacob xx

You know, when you return a faulty bottle or such, they usually open a new one in store in front of you and check with you that the new one is in top shape but I want to unbox a new one for you guys in a new video so that will take some extra negotiating in the boutique, to make them give me a new sealed bottle... oh boy... this is causing me quite a bit of stress and I sweat a lot when I am stressed... such a mess.

Its a production flaw. The stopper was slightly wider than usual stoppers and when it was placed in the bottle and sealed, it was so tight that it created a hermetic tight closure which would not be openable without braking the bottle.

Dacob, sorry this happened! But to be honest, watching this video actually reminded me of when I broke my Chanel “miroir double facettes” as I was dining with my relatives at Christmas. Being from southern Italy you can imagine they all got so scared by the “7 years bad luck” that they had to throw salt all over the place and reflect the moonlight with its pieces; maybe they would practice rituals for a Chanel fragrance too! Hope everything goes the right way x
