Cheapsmells (web site in U.K.)

Well, who has ever bought scents from this company? Let me know what you think?

Burberry Brit I bought from them does not smell like the sample 2ml vial. The opening is strange. I also bought Joop! and D & G from them but they are fine.

Opinions please.

I received a bottle of Body Kouros and its really weak, no longevity or sillage. I also got a bottle L by Lolita Lempicka for my wife - I'll have to see whether thats as poor when I give it to her next week.
But so far, except for the price, I'm not too impressed by Cheapsmells.

I've used them in the past,no problems here.

I've purchased Rive Gauche,L'instant and Mitsouko. All of these were purchased over 18 months ago,though.

Used them many many times in the past and everything has always been legit and delivered very fast. I got about 10 fragrances from my collection from there and I'm pretty sure they don't sell fakes.

Rive Gauche and Terre D'Hermes being the most recent purchases and they are definately legit.

Cheers
That does give me some comfort - I doubt very much that the Body Kouros is fake - possibly just lost its longevity in storage.

Am I dreaming? LOL. I posted this in April 07 and have received no reply until Gimpee resurrected it yesterday?

Well, Burberry Brit bought from them is legit, but might be of old stock.

Why?

1. When I first used that bottle, the top note wasn't as attractive as of the vial.

2. A year later, I used that old same vial and it smelled just like when I first used the bottle.

So, I have a question. What do you think about the Brit's top note? What notes do you get?
