That is a replica perfume. They use some terms that u need to look for. Generic perfume, perfume inspired by and such.

There are technology to indicate what compound used in perfumes already. Electronic noses. CSI anyone? Then there, they will play with the quantity of each compound to replicate it.

I know of 1 cheap brand in Malaysia that uses this term.

That is just a sample. The other one that sells at pasar malam are imitations. The box, bottle and tags all look the same as original with very minor differences.

So back to your question, that perfume is NOT an imitation product per se. Its more of a cheaper alternative, with same smell. Smell is something no one can trademark.

Actually I dont really know how to compare. Just wonder Polo United same with Ralph Polo Lauren or not. Both hav the same smell... doh.gif
yaya...both hav different logo indicated on the box.

I didnt notice bout that coz im not very familiar with POLO perfume.

Just found that it's different logo while i compare the one i bought with the one in the airport. shocking.gif
Got this perfume in Tangs sales, hmmm...wonder Tangs branded product is replica also??

the promoter compare the perfume selling in airport too, they said airport is selling in xxx price and u can get cheaper here coz of sales....blah blah blah~~

btw, to think in good, both hav same smell, i bet ppl wont be able to know it is replica or not if i dont take the box out with me. blink.gif

just hope it doesnt hav any side effect to me. hmm.gif

Most of these companies have their own labs to make perfumes. Some Malaysian brand ones requires to register with ministry to make and sell. So no problems here. I would not buy an exact replica though. This are the ones u shoudl be afraid off. Not the other brand alternatives.
