Hello. First time post, so hope it's in the right place and sticks to the rules.
I've posted 4 photos also. (I live in the UK)
I loved a friend's Gucci By Gucci (Womens) Perfume and decided to buy some for myself.
Hers and the ones I've seen in the shops have a squarish bottle with a gold top and a decorative gold chain tag hanging from the front.
I ordered some from Amazon UK last week and it arrived this morning. Here's the link:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Gucci-Women-...9168053&sr=8-2
It was direct and supplied by Amazon UK themselves (not one of the subsidiary Amazon Marketplace companies)
However when it arrived, it looked nothing like the Gucci perfume bottle I was expecting:-
- The Amazon receipt and sticky label that was on the wrapped celophane of the box both say 'Gucci By Gucci For Women Eau de Parfum 75ml'
- Neither the box nor the bottle say 'Gucci By Gucci' anywhere, where a quick Google Images Search shows hundreds of the familiar bottles all signed 'Gucci By Gucci'
- The bottle is an unfamiliar shape (clear and very flat with a large round clear top) and obviously different to the Amazon picture in the link
- Also the small, clear sticker on the underside of the bottle states 'Eau de Toilette' (!). The poor picture is as good as I could get zooming in, but you can just make it out.
Any information or advice, from those who know the Gucci brand better, on what I've received would be welcome.
Maybe I'm just a bit paranoid and it's a new or international version or I've misread something on the Amazon advert. I'm approaching this as a bit of a novice, but have enjoyed all the information, reviews and chat on this website over the years.
Thanks
LISA
