Based on my previous experience, I've received certain perfumes that are "watered down". How can I be certain that this perfume is authentic?

Really the only way to be certain is when you have the fragrance in hand. There are certain distinctive features that a fragrance manufacturers put in place in order to prevent tampering or to distinguish from fakes. Now I have purchased several fragrances off Amazon and have never received a fake or water down fragrance. I usually check the reviews from previous costumers and compare it to how many have purchased from that particular merchant.

I received authentic perfume. I cannot speak on behalf of the seller, but as a customer I had a good experience with this purchase. I even received samples of other perfumes along with it and a coupon code. My bottle was wrapped in the original plastic just as you would pick it up in the store.

Though I am not a Dior connoisseur, I do believe this is a genuine product. By inspection, the product packaging seems authentic, as well as the quality of the perfume itself. Hope this helps.

Unless it is a store like Macy's or is an actual perfume store, I would buy it online. Most of the time, it's cheaper and when you stick with reputable merchants, it's not a knock off. Hope I was able to help.

I am guessing it is because people have used this product in the past from legit sellers such as a drugstore. I can honestly say that I am questioning the one I got. I am returning it since the application brush fell apart - not what I would expect from such a expensive product. Mine does not have a perfume smell like some people have been concerned about which is not consistent with the real brand. I have also been having issues with my left eye twitching since I started using this product. In the past I have had a terrible experience with sellers in Las Vegas who sold me fake make-up and beauty products. So basically always review the seller before purchasing. Hope this helps.

Absolutely not! I've actually bought a few perfumes from Amazon. I picked them out in a brick and mortar store and buy them on Amazon. They are the real deal. I've never been disappointed (and I'm picky about colognes).

It's not Fake per say, but it is the water down version...The high dollar stuff at high end dept stores is Eau de Parfum, this is Eau de Toilette and has about half the strength of the Parfum.

Mine was definitely a knockoff. I have been wearing this fragrance for years and knew immediately. I complained and was immediately refunding the price I paid. I was told sometimes when the fragrance is old it looses it's original smell. Hmmm. In any event, they stood by their product. As an aside, I ordered another fragrance from a different seller and it was authentic.

Mine was original ... I would want the eau de parfum , not the toilette . The parfum is always more intense . If the seller has a good reputation , I would not be worried . If he has sold fakes in the past ,reviews will state that. I love Euphoria!! It gets many compliments. I recently tried Calvin Klein Obsession . I had never wanted to try it because the commercials annoyed me . It is an older fragrance , but a KILLER!!!! I have many perfumes but these are two of the finest , and can be purchased reasonably compared to Chanels . They both draw compliments and are simply fantastic creations, esp for the price! They also are really long lasting . I love both! Mine was original ... I would want the eau de parfum , not the toilette . The parfum is always more intense .

I bought it and it smells exactly the same didn't see anything that led me to believe it's wasn't authentic ?

If it wasn't authentic, they did a great job with the copy. It smells exactly like the sample I got from the dept store, it lasts, it looks exactly like what you get from the department store. I'm not sure how to verify that it's authentic. As far as I'm concerned, I got what I paid for at a much better price than the dept store.

The one I got from I think perfumesworld.com was definately fake. Not only did they charge me for the shipping but I had to pay to send the package back. Cost me $20 to send fake perfume back. I would not recommend buying an perfume you can smell first. Not worth the chance that you will get a fake.

fake or expired even from amazon this is a problem for yrs. none of the scents last as long as their dept store counter parts. I've tried Perfume cologne all of them polo Burberry dior Gevenchy Dolce Gabbana all were noticeably different and weaker then dept store bought brands. You may get lucky and the warehouse is storing them correctly, not expired or not stealing them and replacing them. But I have not had that luck even from amazon I have a strict no third party sellers policy if available through amazon. These are more comparable to the outlet mall kiosks stores that sell markdown expired perfume in the walk ways. If that is what your used to it will smell real. But know if you go to a dept store and get it Macy's dillards etc. it will last longer and be stronger. 1/2 to 1 spritz should last most the day. Vs 2 or 3 for half a day as these are prone to be like.

I fully understand your concern that this item could very well be a KNOCK-OFF due to it's low price, I was thinking the same thing when I bought it for my wife. But I have to admit I believe it is genuine. The packaging is correct and the fragrance is amazing. I'm retired Navy and I used to get Joy, Shalimar, Chloe, Chanel #5 and Opium for my sisters when I was on Mediteranian cruises so I know what the real fragrances are. It's real but I don't know why it's so cheap. It's even the full strength PERFUME versus the eau de toilette or cologne. I'm very happy with it, at least my wife is.

I bought this last year and I am extremely happy with it . It is %100 original and the aroma stays for a long time. I always get a compliment when I wear it. I recommend this perfume %100. Good luck

The oils I ordered were not watered down. I can't verify they are certified but mine work beautifully! I normally do order through my representative.

I have been wearing this perfume for over ten years; I would purchase new or have the bottle refilled at Macys. Because the deal at Amazon was so much better I gave it a try. It is, to me, exactly the same. I understand your concern. I was gifted a bottle of Angel from a kiosk at the Mall. This Angel was a different shade of blue and smelled nothing like "my" Angel. I will purchase from Amazon again. Good Luck.

It may be a factory reject or it may be a fake. Regardless, somethings not right. Ask for a refund from Amazon. I did and they gave me my money back. I compared bottle I receives from Amazon to a bottle from Nordstrom and the 'Amazon' bottle doesn't smell same.
