You have to be careful ordering from Rioperfumes (they also trade under Simplysublime), I ordered Amen and Kryptomint "unboxed", the Amen has some rotten smelling notes in it, so I checked the batch code and the bottle is almost 6yrs old

The Kryptomint seems to smell ok but "unboxed" it turns out is actually code for "tester". A tester bottle is not great because if I decide to sell it on it won't be as easy to sell as a normal bottle.

I've had an issue with them before with selling really old fragrances, they did a refund the last time but it's waste of time and now I've been burnt twice I probably won't order from them again.

Wow okay thanks for this info. I know for sure the Kryptomint was a tester. They told me upfront when i bought it so no issues there.

But ill keep an eye on the manufactured date before i buy again.

About the same as when you have shaved your guava and put perfume on to hide the smell

The aroma of a woman comes from inserting your tongue and mouth (or fingers) inside her. And it varies. If you have an issue with the way pussy smells, maybe go over to @Grant.

Many people incl myself buy testers, or unboxed. Its way cheaper in many cases to buy testers, as long as the batch codes and dates are okay. Hell if you could find a vintage bottle of say eau sauvage as an example, you not going to worry about it being old. The reformulation on newer batches is pretty bad, but depends on how the person stores their perfumes

Wtf dude, buying vintage is a totally different thing, that's hunting for something you know to be a desirable formulation, even then it can be hit or miss.

When I'm buying normal retail stock new sealed in the box it mustn't be 6yrs old, I would hope that goes without saying.

And a Tester bottle is fine if the juice is still good but they need to be upfront that it's a tester so I can make my own decision whether I'm comfortable with buying a tester, not do a bait and switch.

Im pretty sure Rios website indicates tester or unboxed. Ive seen this on their website on some of their fragrances, where it says tester.

Yes, been there a few times. Smallish shop and you have to spend some time in there. You will see things in there you havent seen since childhood. lol. I am sure there are perfume in some of their cabinets they dont even know is still there. They also own the stores around them as that is where they keep alot of their stock. People literally walk in there and buy R35K worth of perfume daily.

Its a legit business they are running there.

Francis Kurkdjian was behind this fragrance. Thats when i started following him. Unfortunatley this exact fragrance has been formulated many times and not what was when it came out.

I have yet to find anything that compares. Everything else is in your face.

Relax, I just said don't be a knob.
What's up with implying I should be grateful it's a 6yr old fragrance because its "vintage" and then making out I can't read that it's a tester when it clearly says UNBOXED and doesn't mention tester anywhere.
lol, wake up bra.

go give MFK BR 540 a chance. Its a little expensive but also has that "molecule" and it lasts for days. Its well worth the money.
