Testers come in various sizes and forms of packing – some come with simple white or brown box with or without a cap and may be labelled “Tester”. The quality of the perfumes themselves are not affected at all and are the same as the one in the retail fancy box. But the price is much lower. All our testers are sold unused, with the entire original quantity in the container. A great way to buy quality and a discounted price!
