My bottle just arrived. It does not say 'Claiborne' on the box. Is it the original or a fake? It does not say Liz Claiborne anywhere on the packaging.

Got mine on E**y. I have the same concerns: here is a link which I've found useful.http://www.cosmeticsdesign.com/Business-Financial/Elizabeth-Arden-sued-for-unauthorized-fragrance-distribution My opinion is if you buy online, buy from the main company or AMAZON! AMAZON stands behind everything they sell and have NEVER let me down! Good Luck!

Except that Liz Claiborne sold many of it's fragrance brands including Curve to Elizabeth Arden back in August 2011.

If it is not a copy, it should have Claiborne on the product as shown in the description. If you believe you have a copy and not what is shown, please report this to amazon. That is fraud.

It seems authentic to me. It came with a very nice, sealed box. I have caught some phony sellers on ebay, but this seems like the real thing to me. The perfume is long-lasting.

Hi Daphne! I've purchased this from Macys and other stores in the past and from Amazon too... The box comes sealed just like from any other store and the perfume has always been authentic in my experience... I personally think you should go ahead with the purchase and you won't be disappointed... Good Luck! :)

The bottle I have is real. It's gorgeous and it lasts the same as my previous bottles. Amazon seems to get really good prices on select perfumes. Another Guerlain at a great price is their Samsara eau de parfum. Also, they have Lanvin Arpege at a sensational low price. I don't have the Samsara yet, but I have the Arpege and it, too, is the real mccoy. As I remember, my Shalimar may not have come from Amazon directly. I think it came from a third party. There could be a difference depending on who actually fills the order.

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 don't think its the real thing either. To me When I order perfume from Fragrance .com or Perfume .com it not real. Its not the same as the department stores.

To be honest, I don't know. However, I compared tha bottle and the smell to the one sold in Nordstrom. I didn't see a difference. Overall, I'm happy with it. So I'm hoping its real.

No! Well, at least the one I received was a knock-off. I was so disappointed. It was definitely represented to be the "real" thing, but it was a fake. The box looked authentic, but the Mia looked odd. I called Clarisonic and gave them the serial number and they said it was definitely fake and they had heard many complaints like that from amazon. Best of luck. And I hope that helps you.

I have been buying from third party vendors through Amazon. I have never had a problem of it not being the legitimate perfume. I would think they stand behind their vendors.

I ordered a bottle a few weeks ago even though it didn't specify Montmorency cherries; the bottle was glass and seemed very good. I liked it so much I ordered more a few days ago, and it just arrived in a PLASTIC bottle. If it wasn't such a hassle to return it, I would. :(

Be careful where you buy it from. May of been a fake. Go on the internet and find the original company, they are out of California. It should be milky in color and you can't put your nose close to it because it is so strong.

Hi Joan That's a good question...one that I struggle with also. It's hard to say because I once did some research with regard to the tell tale signs to look out for in the case of one of my favourite brands CK Obsession; and to be quite honest I kinda came away a little wiser but still not entirely sure I could pick a fake. Aside from faults in packaging, a fake will be made of watered down or substitute elements that lead the scent to degrade quicker over time. With this in mind I found the product I received had the exact same scent as the bottle I bought from the store, and it seemed to last throughout the day...so I was pleased, and I did receive compliments on the scent. If I may add one more comment, after shipping is added the saving between what I'd paid here at Amazon and what the stores were charging was marginal. Hope that helps you. :)

Do not use this product if been opened. I would be concerned cause I don't really trust ebay.. People that sell their things usally comes broken , or used not like new...Honestly, I would throw the bottle away or make a complain because if you get an infection or something, and you don't have proof who it came from, then that's a big issue. I would just recommend you bying this product here cause it actually comes from the ISO Company...

If you item came wrapped in cellophane, then you received a authentic product. Sometimes, the manufacturer has a bad batch and a few don't smell the same. All of our merchandise comes directly from the manufacturer. I suggest you exchange it for another bottle.

It never crossed my mind that what I bought was a fake. I have bought a lot of perfume, and I have had other experiences that seemed to be fakes or "watered down," but not in this case. However, I certainly can't verify every perfume this seller has sold. It seems that we take a chance in every sales transaction that we have these days. I do find Amazon to be one of the safest places to conduct business online.

My bottle came wrapped well and is the real OPI brand. Personally I go by the seller's rating. Better ratings are happier customers. Good Luck :)
