Online Perfume
I was just wondering if anyone who purchased a tester perfume online would recommend buying a tester or the original perfume..
1) Does the scent smell different?
2) Did the tester contain all of the perfume?or was it used
3) any good sites??
THANKS!

Tester meaning used.
1. No the scent is not different. The tester is suppose to represent the actual smell.
2. It is used since it is a tester perfum.
3. I would not know. I never bought a tester perfume online.

Testers that are sold online from trustworthy sites are exactly the same thing as the original perfume. They smell exactly the same and are brand new (unused, unopened). The only difference is that sometimes they don’t come with the box or the cap of the bottle (just the spritzer part), unless it’s a simple cap. What a tester is, is basically the bottle that they put on display in large department stores for you to try. But when the department store receives it, it’s unopened. That’s how you’ll receive yours if you purchase one.

Why are testers cheaper? Simply because when you buy regular perfume, part of what you pay is for the packaging and the glitzy caps they sometimes have.
P.S. I’ve bought testers before and they are perfect for personal use. Of course, when you want to purchase a perfume as a gift, get the regular because it will have the box.

Tester perfumes and colognes are the same as the retail items…only they generally come in a plain box.
In fact, a tester is sometimes BETTER than some of the stuff you may find on eBay that is supposed to be genuine. I once bought a bottle of Polo cologne. After a few days of using it, I realized, someone must have had an old Polo bottle and bought some of that super cheap fake Polo and put it in the bottle. It just never smelled like the other bottles of Polo that I had.
