Bought perfumes today at a genuine looking stall in city centre. They were Devil Wears Perfume , retails at £40 (so they said). Fleur , Ada Jardin Paris , Lovely Pour Femme and 2 mens --Curageand Exceed pour homme. The stall holder said they were worth over £200 AND I got them for £3O. My daughter wasn`t convinced but I was so bought them . Her boyfriend and son like one of the mens. I`ll keep the others for myself although first thought of Christmas.

I would bet they are one of two things Ros. Fell off the back of a lorry, or 'fakes', weak imitations.

hope not for your sake though.

Be very careful,a lot of these fake perfumes can have terrible reactions with the skin.

You probably paid £29.70 too much, I'm afraid. No one sells something worth £300 for £30.

Being the cynical old moo that I am, I usually make sure I get a receipt, though tend to steer clear of market stalls I don't know. :-))

I am not normally a person who gets conned but this company would not have got a site on a main street in Glasgow without being genuine. I`m, not bothered -will use them myself , Ros xx
