L'eau d'Issey pour Homme reformulated?

Recently, I've found the new tester bottles weaker than the old bottle. I'm saying this after experiencing two TESTER bottles and they are the same. Has this wonderful scent been reformulated when they changed the font on the bottle? I have even compared the tester and the old bottle side by side and my thought remains the same, the new one is clearly weaker.

What do you think?

Maybe the newer bottle was off and got over-exposed to heat during transit? It happens...

Either way, I'll ask my friend who works for BPI later this week.

I don't think the strenght of Issey would be played with it is one of BPI's best sellers of their portfolio along with Le Male.

I don't think its been refomulated..still as strong as ever. If there's anything they need to change its the sprayer. As i don't use my bottle that often, during the 1st spray very little comes out and its as though that it needs to be primed every time. Anyone experienced this? sorry OP for going off topic a bit.

Mines the same. Most of the time it lasts over 12 hours on me & often through showers, however a few times when I've worn it the longevity has been below average. This was when I went camping, however, so the hard water + frequent swimming may have given me dry skin.
