THIS IS COUNTERFEIT. DO NOT BUY THIS PERFUME.
THIS IS COUNTERFEIT. DO NOT BUY THIS PERFUME. What you receive will not be Flowerbomb, but a knock-off. Upon opening the box, my girlfriend noticed it looked fairly beat up but thought at first that it could have been due to shipping. What we discovered upon looking closer was that the Secret Service code that comes with each bottle of perfume had been sloppily razored off the package, as well as two other strips down the inside of the box. Additionally, the beat up look to the box was due to the fact that it had been completely ripped open (its made out of one piece of cardboard that is fastened with glue on one side) and then hot glued back together, although whomever glued it made a mess out of it and left drizzles of glue all over the inside, as well as fingerprints on the pearlescent outside of the box. The perfume wasn't supported like it normally is either, it was rolling around freely in a crushed version of the pink cardboard that normally suspends it, so the black Vicktor&Rolph marker was bent. The scent of the perfume was the last straw - she put some of her previous bottle of Flowerbomb perfume (purchased at Sephora) on one wrist and then some from this bottle on her other wrist. After a few minutes, the difference was clear - the counterfeit smells similar, but lacks the sweet, smokey undertones of the real deal. My girlfriend was so excited to find this perfume at a discount - clearly, this is why.
