Real or Fake? Spicebomb

Guys,

I need you to help me figure out if this is real. I found it at a swapmeet for $59 for a 100ml bottle. It has no box, and this place also has 1 bottle of Gucci Envy 1.7 for $45, Gucci Pour Homme 1 1.7 for $47, Creed Tabarome 4 oz for $85. So before I purchase all these I want to know if their real.

Here's the pictures of Spicebomb..

That is a real bottle. The serial number on my Spicebomb is 38HN01, and the one on that bottle looks legit. This scent is too new to be faked that well. What a steal btw! If you buy it see if it smells like real Spicebomb. In other words, like 1 Million, Tobacco Vanille, and CK One Shock mixed together.

Thanks for the info! I also would like to know where do you verify these serial numbers on the fragrances? Their Chanel bottles look a little suspect so I'd like to check the serial numbers on the bottles next time I go there.

They don't have Viktor and Rolf listed, but my spidey senses tell me that is a real bottle, and my spidey sense never fails me.

It'd be way too soon to be faked that well. Also, I doubt Creed Tabarome gets faked. That doesn't sell near as well as GIT, MI, Aventus etc. Though I would recommend you pick that one up too, it's a very nice gentleman's frag.

You should go ahead and pick up Gucci Envy too since it's a sought after discontinued frag. Check the code!
