HOW TO SPOT FAKES ALTHAIR FOUND ON EBAY AND ONLINE: When examining Parfums de Marly Althair, there are several key indicators to help identify counterfeit versions. Firstly, pay attention to the bottom of the box. Authentic boxes have small raised silver letters that read “83% volume” and list the ingredients. Beneath this, a white barcode should be present. Many fake bottles also have a white barcode, but on authentic boxes, directly under the barcode on the same white part, it reads “C2023 Parfums De Marly.” One of the biggest giveaways is that counterfeit boxes often place this “C2023” on the brown part of the box instead.
The color of the box and bottle is another telltale sign. Counterfeit versions are noticeably lighter, while authentic ones have a richer, darker brown hue. On the bottle, the horse emblem provides further clues. Authentic bottles have a well-defined horse neck, while fake ones lack this detail. Additionally, counterfeit bottles may have a small hole in the right horse’s standing foot, which authentic bottles do not have.
On the bottom of the authentic bottle, there is an engraved number “8,” which is absent on fakes. The bottom of the fake bottles also has visible mold lines, while the authentic bottles feature a flawless, smooth finish.
These tips can help you spot a fake Parfums de Marly Althair and ensure you’re getting the real deal.
