    Yes, I'm very annoyed with testers because they are usually from the first/second batch right after production and the are actually the real perfume...what comes after are newer batches that have different strengts or are watered down. For selling the perfume it makes total sense but "buyer beware" even if the brand will not admit to the changes. Just my 5 cents from my experience ....
