One of the sure ways to tell a Real Xerjoff from a Fake bottle is to check under the Sprayer Cap to see if the Outer Ring Lining is a White Plastic Ring Lining "Meaning Real" or a Medal Ring Lining Meaning Fake!

That perfect first spray means the bottle was already sprayed and repacked. I had that with a few Armaf CDNI Men bottles that I returned a few years ago. I watched a few Xerjoff unboxings halfway through this video and I noticed what you said. Xerjoff's packaging and presentation is an important feature of the brand.

Indeed but they do however sell or have sold them in those style boxes. The plastic insert the bottle sat on was a red flag because it was crumbling and falling apart. But they did turn out to be authentic.

I have purchased all my Xerjoff’s directly from Xerjoff. No discounts, but that extra money is what I pay to feel a peace of mind that what I have is the real deal through and through. And the packaging and presentation that come from Xerjoff is cheer elegance. It’s supreme. I could tell immediately without your showing the bottles and other details that those boxes with those big letters aren’t Of Xerjoff elegance. Sorry to see you have been duped like that.

Yea I’m still not a big eBay fan but the two mentioned turned out to be authentic but definitely not new as the sellers portrayed them to be. I’ve since sold them and downsized my collection considerably.

That happen to me when I first TRIED to buy Lacoste L. 12 12 Noir from ebay. You could just TELL something was "janky" about it from first-glance then I checked out a youtube video and found out FOR-SURE I had a fake and months later after I got an authentic bottle from FrangranceX I realized the fake wasn't even Noir it was BLUE! It smells good but I CAN'T wear it or put it on my shelf next to my REAL colognes but I was just out about 30 bucks so it wasn't that big of a deal but you're out $100's of dollars! That's why I never buy fragrances from ebay anymore just FrangranceX, Fragrancenet and Amazon for me. I feel for you bro!

Hey bro ! Take your knowledge to the stores ! TJMAX and Marshalls every now and then have Niche Fragrances on the racks you can still save a buck or two and still come out ahead ! FACT ! Stay Strong and move on .

I hate when people get scammed but did you see the pictures before you purchased it ? Were the pictures that you saw on macari same as what you received or were the pictures of a legit bottle and box?? I'm just asking because do you know for sure the person you got it from knew it was fake???

Shit is just hurtful ....smdh!! Sorry friend.

Brother, you ever buy from fragrance x?

This is why I use Paypal for any purchase with a new seller. I ordered this one frag on Ebay only to find it was coming from India! Thankfully I used Paypal cause a month later the item never showed up. Tracking number didn't connect to anything... Contacted the seller 4 times over the course of that month...nothing... Contacted Ebay, they said I had to wait for a shipping update...well the seller ain't answering. Went to Paypal and explained it all...immediate refund on the spot! That's what's up. THEN the seller contacted me saying why did I take their money back. I laughed and told them to go find their item and sell it to someone else while I leave this negative feedback. Friggin scammers...

I’m positive. Last time I checked I could read pretty good folk 😂. I always read the description. I just figured it was a trusted site but I guess not. Too many scammers out there. It’s against the law to sell fakes and I feel that if a site is gonna allow it then they should at the least make them put up a full disclosure of what the product actually is. I would have never bought it if it said fake or dupe. I in this case expected the real deal. I love clones but you actually know it’s a clone or inspired by fragrance and not copying the bottle and packaging also

You only have 3 days after your package is delivered to complain. Mercari is pretty good on refunding. File directly with mercari not the seller. Out of about 25 perfumes I purchased from mercari 20 were fake. I requested my money for all of them and now I'm too afraid to order from mercari. Lots of fakes when it comes to perfumes.
