Why is the seller not helping you even though you do not have a copy of the invoice? If you purchased it online there is ample evidence of your purchase and the seller should honor their return policy even if you cannot produce a physical invoice. Please write back and tell us more about your experience with this seller. I can't speak for other sites, but if a customer called and told us that the perfume made them ill and lose mental acuity, then we would take that return without fail! Unfortunately, there is not authoritative entity to send your bottles to investigate the authenticity of the product. And even if there were, the cost to run those tests would be quite high. If you truly believe that the fragrances you bought from that seller are not legitimate, you may want to forward the bottles and any other info to the perfume designer since I am sure they have an interest in tracking down counterfeiters.

Nevertheless when I found three for $30 including postage on the web in the US I bought them. The original perfume was unique in that I was not allergic to it. I am somehwat environmentally sensitive. I used the whole bottle. I opened one of the new ones and two nights in a row, lost mental acuity and became confused and ill. I finally realised it was the perfume. I had thought it did not smell the same. So I checked the old with the new. Identical packaging. Box is the same. One has a clear bottle one has a matte glass. They are not the same perfume. I have contacted the seller but there is difficulty as I cannot find the invoice. Is there an origin I can go to to have the perfumes checked?
