Theres no real General section and this one gets used most so I though Id stick this in here, sorry that its off topic but its a desperate last effort to get my money back. Mods please leave it open at least for a little while. I Purchased 3 bottles of this cologne from 'NGAPLZ' or Wes, a long term member who i thought i could trust. Heres the link, you guys might remeber it, and i know others bought bottles: http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showth...hlight=cologne (http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=110697&highlight=cologne) When they arrived, there was ABSOLUTLY NO packaging in the postage box, and to no surprise one bottle had broken. Then after a closer look, it came blaintently obvious these were fake imitations. Although Wes, or 'NGAPLZ' still deny's this. Then i found out he sells the stuff in bulk on EBAY so his original story is bullsh*t He promised me a refund 2 or so weeks ago now. I have been calling every day since then. He wont answer... heres some of my observations: Smells nothing like the original product, actually it smells like ****, it has no real smell, just that alcoholic scent that cheap colognes like lynx n stuff have Printing on bottle very cheap looking run marks all over the place, Printing on bottle is brownish chrome, as opposed to the metallic grey colour of original Ingredients list of fake reads: �Alcohol, aqua/water, parfum/fragrance, bht� Should read: �Alcohol, aqua/water, parfum/fragrance, bht, lintalool, geraniol, eugenol, alpha-insomethyl ionone, cinnamyl alcohol, limonene, citral, citronellol, butyphenyl, methylopional, benzyl salicylate. Code fill: B1593/4 Inside of box is different colour and texture to genuine one. Outside of box is different colour and texture to original one Glass bottle is really poor shape and quality compred to original, ie ripples and round edges, and the seam where the bottle joints is misaligned Barcode on fake is crooked, by a fair bit too lol Cap is cheap looking compared to original, and it took the collar part around the bottle off with it when I pulled it off. Some dodgey looking hologram sticker on the box that says �FJOriginal�, which isn�t on the genuine box. Writing on bottom copies original, but there�s some other rubbish paragraph after it. Smells NOTHING like original, smells very alcoholic, the broken bottles box is actually sitting next to me as I type and its awful! Theres more but I think that�s enough
