Planning to freeze your perfume shopping spree on a cheap fragrance? Take a pause. Before buying a Eue De Toilet, perfume or cologne that lures you with extremely attractive discounts or a too-good-to be-true price tag, you need to be doubly sure of its authenticity. Yes, in a global market flooded by millions of cheap and expensive fragrances, you can be buying a fake in the garb of an original. Apart from being harmful to your health and the reputation of the brand, such products leave you squirming about your incurred financial losses too.
Before you Purchase a Cheap Fragrance For years in a row, counterfeit perfumes have been targeting novice, impulsive and serious buyers alike. Exerts in investigating faux fragrances suggest that you should have your antennas up with regards to the following.
Examine the Wrapper : Original perfumes are generally marketed with close fitting cellophane wrappers in place. So, if you happen to come across a cheap perfume that fails to be packed in the same way, or if the cellophane is loose and moving, then it’s probably a fake. Adhesive Glue or Excessive Tape: Give it a thought, why would a new fragrance package require too many tapes or glue for keeping it together? If there’s a presence of excessive adhesive inside or on the exterior of the perfume bottle, then, you need to say “no” to the same. Thin Materials for Packaging : Take a close and careful look at the box of the perfume. In case it is made of very cheap or thin material then it just cannot be from the original manufacturers. All high-end beauty product brands tend to use thick and strong paperboard while creating cartons for their products. Remember, thin packaging usually signals a fake. Stay away. Examine Barcodes and Read the Print: It is absolutely all right to get suspicious if you happen to note the bar codes on the sides of the packaging. Ideally, they should be printed on the bottom part of the perfume box in question. Also, look out for any misspellings or uneven brand names, they are tell-tale marks that you are about to buy a fake. Perfume Counterfeiters – Masters of the Crime They know how to create almost identical bottles and label them with the same designer’s name. They ensure that the box, fragrance and label are similar too. Yes, perfume counterfeiters are skilful players who compel you to buy fakes as originals; and without trying too hard. The workmanship of these fraudulent parties have been greatly aided by modern digital imaging and/ or printing techniques. They are adept at producing and marketing almost identical replicas of most leading perfume brands that are making it to the racks of the best perfume stores, globally. In case you fall for their ploy, you will discover that the perfume purchased by you has a close enough fragrance but is not as good as the original. Also, fakes rarely last long. They may harm your skin too. Do know that counterfeiting has become a huge problem globally, and numerous products are being manufactured and sold annually. As per experts, a whopping 10 percent of cheap fragrances and toiletries in the market place are proving to be fakes. Health Risks of a Fake Fragrance Counterfeit perfumes are not made to go through stringent safety standards that are applicable to cosmetics and toiletries sold globally. As they generally use inferior, cheaper ingredients for their making, such perfumes may lead to severe allergic reactions in wearers with sensitive skin More often than not, they end up staining expensive garments too. Perfumes can be Stale Very few know that perfumes can deteriorate over time. So steer clear of those products that are from an old stock, or are stale. Such products are usually sold off at very low rates and provide no value for your good money. The longevity of a perfume is dependent on the intensity of light, temperature conditions, and length of storage. Stores on the verge of a closure may decide upon ‘selling out’ their old perfume stocks at discount shops, perfume web sites, auction stores and so forth. Alluring as they may be because of their low prices, they are not for you! Authenticity Checklist for Perfumes Before starting on this checklist, do know that a cheap fragrance is not necessarily a fake. You may have been lucky enough to hit a jackpot with your find. Read on for important checks of authenticity that you need to keep in mind before buying low-cost perfumes.
Beware! Citrus, warm spicy, and rose, are just a few of the most loved main accords of this popular perfume for men. Yes, we are referring to the coveted 1 Million Cologne Paco Rabanne that has been luring its wearers with a perfect bend of aromatic and marine accords too. Not too long ago, in the year 2008, Paco Rabanne had presented a completely masculine fragrance that made a powerful impact from the day of its launch. With flankers like Million Intense (2013), 1 Million Absolutely Gold (2012), and the limited edition 1 Million $, the 1 Million perfume has millions of fans for its fragrance.
Read on for why it is so popular. It Lures—Straightaway! If you have found its original just too heavy, then there are strong chances that you will fall in instant love with this version. 1 Million Cologne, launched in the summer of 2015, is definitely more seductive, energetic and charming. Personifying the element of fun in every conceivable way, the 1 Million perfume opens up with striking marine notes, along with a citrus blend of mandarin and cardamom, as well as the floral notes of roses. It has juniper berries in its heart , and fades out with the base notes of tonka bean, patchouli, and leather. Surely, these notes lure you like no other! Packaging the Leader The packaging of the 1 Million perfume retains its original form of an exquisite gold bar. However, this time, it is transparent and truly expresses the lighter character of this fragrance. It is freely available in fragrance stores and online discount portals as 125 ml and 75 ml Eau de Toilette. This oft-purchased perfume has the face of Sean O'Pry, the very popular model. Created by Michel Girard and Olivier Pescheux, the 1 Million Cologne is surely a steal at its price. Signature of Masculinity Multifaceted to the core, this high-impact fragrance is perfect for men who crave for a strong masculine appeal. While its freshness of grapefruit introduces the wearer to an audacious scent, the combined notes of blood mandarin and mint leave him wondering if these were the best top notes that money could buy. Here, the middle notes are striking and assertive, and are followed with a virile yet refined combination of cinnamon, rose, and spicy notes. In this perfume, the base notes incite the ultimate harmony of amber, leather, white wood, and patchouli essences. These notes create a perfect blend of one-of-a kind, elegant, and intermingled notes—something that you will cherish forever. Notes of 1 Million Perfume Blood Mandarin, frosted grapefruit, peppermint, cinnamon bark, rose, absolute, musk, Patchouli, blond Leather, Tonka bean, white wood, and amber ketal are the main accords that give this men’s fragrance its distinctive appeal. Overall, the style is spicy, leather and fresh! The Perfume’s Iconic Bottle Paco Rabanne had tapped Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance, the famous industrial designer, for creating an iconic bottle for the I Million Cologne. The result referenced Rabanne's legendary usage of metallic colours in fashion. Overall, the bottle represented a breathtakingly beautiful, yet simple design that reinterpreted a bar of gold. The "Wild West" design of this packaging adds to the masculine feel of the perfume and is a tribute to the unforgettable pioneers of your many childhood movies, and memories. Increasing Popularity of 1 Million Perfume Though the fragrances counters—both online and offline –have just included this product in their catalogues, the 1 Million Cologne has succeeded in making a big enough impact already. One of the most striking features of this fragrance – it’s presentation – lures buyers with the hope of finding something simplistic, yet gaudy, within. And they are not disappointed. The mint present in the top notes, along with the vanilla-smooth leather base notes, stand out to perfection. It’s the middle spice notes that make them go ‘wow!’ It’s usual for the perfume’s spicy accords to leave their impact on the most discerning buyers, thereby compelling them to end their search at the Paco Rabanne counter. Well, there’s this “girly" like rose note that does make certain American men shy away, but such buyers are few and far between. When compared to the overtly sugary sweet and vanilla-chocolate-cookiesh notes of Angel, the ones in 1 million are hardly sweet. It is comparable to the new Gucci Guilty that also boasts of woody/vanilla notes and spice, but then, this cologne lacks the latter’s heavier, deeper scent. Way Forward Regardless of what different reviewers feel, the 1 Million perfume is a classy gift for men with a passion for wearing the best fragrances, or none. Masculine and strong, it serves to be the right one for you too. Go ahead and buy one –today! |
