Hi,

Is this the first YSL Jazz vintage packaging/bottle?





Thanks in advance,

Damn that bottle looks very cool - very jazzy indeed.

It's a shame that they have repackaged (and repackaged again) that fragrance.
I can, however, see how they might have felt that the bottle looks a little 'gimmicky' (although nothing compared to the real gimmick frags), and they'd hate for such a nice fragrance to be lumped in with the Diesel OTBs and 1Millions of the world.

I really like that bottle a lot, thanks for sharing.

yes, but ...only a question: is there the bar-code somewhere on the box?

Yes in the right or left side there's a very tiny bar code,

Thanks!

It's march 2003, but the most inusual thing is... that's a bottle produced in France, stamped for USA (YSL Perfume Corporation), and aimed for the italian market, ("LCR Rome import for Italy")

But the most strange thing is another: an Eau de Toilette in splash version produced in 2003?
I guess it's one of the famous/infamous "rebatched bottles". It means this is a bottle from '80 put in a newer box during year 2003.
Check the bottom of the bottle : it's HIGHLY probable there is NOT the same "3004" batch code you can see on the box. Maybe there is no code at all!

Don't panic: the bottle is original, and juice too. They put an ancient bottle ina new box. Year of production is NOT 2003, but earlier.

That is what mine looks like as well. I wish it were a spray bottle. I would have reached for it more often then.
Regarding the production date I would be surprised if it was later than 1998. That's the year when Live Jazz came out, they decided to use the same spray bottle for both, and the two boxes were made to complement each other.

Well, according to checkcosmetics.com the "3004" code on the bottom states that this is a bottle made in 2013. Could it be that this is the new Jazz bottle?

Or, maybe the site just made a mistake.. dunno. Check it out.

Checkcosmetic. net NOT to be used after 2010..... the site has never been updated.
(however, that Jazz bottle is before year 2000 for sure.)

The juice is very similar to the original Tsar!

What is your opinion on the similarities?
