Question

hi ppl i jus want to know if its true that the real cologne they sell at flea market is acutally fake
and also at these big stores whree they sell just cologne
are they all fake
are they like jus the same bottle as a real one but mixed with differnt scnets so it dont last longg?
or are they all the same as long as the name is same

Answer 1

The colognes at department stores, such as Macy's and Nordstroms, are all real.
When you buy colognes and perfumes at flea markets, I guess your just taking your own risk. Some can be real, and some can be replica scents.
Me personally, I havent had good luck with flea markets and beauty products. I stick to department stores, and internet purchases. Hope this helps--

Answer 2

Real Cologne

Answer 3

let's put it this way: do you honestly think they would be selling britney spears' perfume, which retails at over 75$ in department stores, 5-15$ if it were the real mc coy, a legal version of the product or that it was not pulled for some reason (ie factory reject)? keep in mind that low price does not always mean a bargain. sometimes, it is a counterfeit product. it may also be a legal product-if you live in malaysia or saudi arabia (that is, if dealing with warranties, legal licensing or certain physical properties, they would all be non-valid in this country). if it is legal in other countries, but grey market in the usa or whatever country you are in, you might be dealing with a concoction not approved of or dangerous by fda or other agencies that regulate public health standards. in others yet, you might be dealing with legal but defective products or repaired products.

Answer 4

I find SOME Diesel ones are really nice, and they're in the $15-25 price range. Also, certain Adidas ones are nice. One that one of my guy friends wears is Playboy-Malibu. There are a few to choose from in that line and they're only about $15. But NICE. It all depends on how you like to smell. Just stay away from ones that smell.. wood-y? Or bitter/peppery. They can get really nasty. But I also agree with the other girl- any Axe is absolutely amazing. I just about die when a guy walks by wearing Axe. Shop around and you're perfect scent will find you :)

Answer 5

Usually if its a known department store they are authentic and fresh.Flea market maybe real,but old and no longer smell right.

Answer 6

if i went to a market here and it had ysl on the shelve for 5.00 pounds? it would be fake,,,,,,,,,, no market will sell you the real thing............ if i go to a store like walmart yes they will sell cheap sents, but they can also sell the real thing.... look at the lable for trade marks and if there expensive with trade marks then there real ............

Answer 7

flea markets are way too inexpensive and their perfumes and colognes are probably fake

Answer 8

I think they are probably just knock-offs.
