It's not always easy to find out if a perfume is original or not, but more and more clandestine laboratories and people are working to counterfeit fragrances. fraud is a crime, and nowadays fake perfumes are considered a criminal offence. perfectionists and counterfeiters make it increasingly difficult to find out if a perfume is original or fake.

At first glance, an original and a fake perfume look the same, but they are not... There are many characteristics you can observe that will help you to know if a perfume is original

At Sabina Perfumery we are committed to fair and legal trade, so today we give you some tips to help you know if a perfume is original or fake and to make sure you are buying something real, the easiest way is to buy it at your trusted perfumery or at those established stores that guarantee that all their perfumes are 100% original.

Aspects to take into account to know if a perfume is original or false.

We recommend that you pay special attention to the fragrance, the label, the bottle, the box and the cellophane

1.What does a fake perfume smell like and what is its composition like?

An original perfume is not manufactured in a day, it takes at least a year to make, and all its composition and ingredients are taken care of down to the last detail, for example, in the original perfumes, quality alcohol is used, while counterfeit perfumes are very toxic and allergenic, not only do they cheat us, but also a perfume that is not original can cause us health problems

If you want to know if a perfume is original, keep in mind that if it doesn't last long, it's a fake perfume and it's also important to know that the big perfume brands use pale colors as the final result of the liquid you can see from the perfume in most fragrance bottles, also try this trick: shake the bottle and if it makes small bubbles that disappear instantly then it will be an original perfume.

2. Look at the bottle of perfume.

As a general rule, the original perfume bottle is made of high quality, smooth glass and is usually transparent so that the colour of the perfume can be seen, and it is also usually made of a single piece, so if you buy a perfume whose bottle is the result of two moulds together you may be looking at a false perfume.

If the dispenser tube is curved, it is a false one, which happens when the dispenser tube is longer than the bottle itself.

3. The packaging talks a lot about a perfume.

The perfumes sector is a highly competitive market, and today we are faced with an infinite number of commercial references when we buy a perfume, which is why marketing and its packaging play a very important role, a wake-up call that at first sight will make you fall in love with it and that you at least feel like trying it, and for which we play a great deal with designs, colours, prints, typography, materials and creativity.

The original perfumes use boxes made with top quality materials, and the boxes must be well reinforced and protected inside so that the bottle does not break or suffer any kind of damage; if you notice that the box is fragile or is made with poor quality cardboard and low weight then you have a false perfume in front of you.

4. How to tell if a perfume is original by its labelling.

The law says that all perfumes must have on their label the broken down components that have been used in their manufacture, and it also says that a bar code, lot number and traceability number must appear

5. Cellophane

It may seem a little trivial, but cellophane is also one of the clues we can use to find out if a perfume is original, and the perfume case should be wrapped in plastic that is perfectly adhered to the packaging

If you find folds or imperfections or what is worse, if there is no cellophane it is that you are in front of a false perfume.

For your peace of mind, we guarantee that all our perfumes are 100% original and we work with the best brands in the sector to guarantee your safety and satisfaction.
