Hello, yes it is original. Skin is the answer. Depending on your skin determines how long the scent lasts.

The perfume is original. Please try spraying it on your fabric or if you are applying on skin, please make sure skin is not dry and that it is also sprayed on the pulse points like neck, back of the knees, wrists. Also store the perfume in a cool, dark place.

Zane, I'm sorry to say...but, unless this is old perfume (like over a year old), it is not the old version. Being an Opium junkie for almost 30 years now, I can honestly tell you that I am heartbroken over the "new recipe". I'm not sure, but the so called new formula for this scent was in direct response to import laws imposed by the Uncle Sam a couple of years ago...so there might be a chance of getting the old formula from the Paris site...but I'm not sure they will ship it here, to the U.S. Hope this helps! And, if you find a way to get the original scent, PLEASE let me know so I can get a bottle. Zane, I'm sorry to say...but, unless this is old perfume (like over a year old), it is not the old version.

Hello, Gina, yes I also have this perfume Creation and love it since I first bought it in 1986 in the US! There are actually two different bottles for this perfume: one of them is just like the one in the picture (which is the older bottle) and the other is round, but I've already had both types and they are both original perfumes. Take care!! Fabiana

I can't be 100% certain, but didn't exactly smell like originals I have purchased in department stores. Now, I still kept the product and used it, and did get compliments on the scent. Not sure was the unusual odor was when first opening the product, but, maybe it was sitting around for awhile, even unopened, things can get old. For the price, it was still worth it, though I ppurchased my last bottle from a department store.

It's probably more than likely fake. I've used flowerbomb and let me tell you, the scent stays stays stays. If anyone complains about the fact that the smell isn't sticking, then you really shouldn't purchase from this seller. Also, don't be fooled. Sellers pay people to submit great reviews just so they can pick up their ratings. A good tip is to check the peoples page who left "great" ratings, you'll notice that they will more than likely only have ONE rating and it will be to that item. These people get paid to do this.

I bought two perfumes and two colognes....they don't smell like they should. They're probably watered down...that's why they're cheaper. That could be the reason....

I just checked my bottle of 800 which I opened two moths ago. There is a smell, but it's not that strong. Are you sensitive to some odours? Maybe you should contact the provider.

I am very sensitive to smells and to answer your question I literally had to get up and go smell a bar. It's a natural smell from the ingredients, that isn't very strong at all. It does say it has fragrance in the ingredients but I really couldn't detect a perfume scent.

No, it smells very pleasant and fruity but it does have denatured alcohol in it as a main ingredient (first one listed) but that is an extremely common ingredient in fragrances. I would say the fruit smell vastly overpowers any chemical smell that may have been detectable before adding the fragrance, but I don't think you can smell the alcohol at all. I know what you're talking about too since I've had really painfully nauseating imitation perfumes like that from the Dollar store and stuff.

This perfume is no longer being made. The current inventory is of less quality, and thefragrance is not of the same quality. My wife used it for 20 years and will no longerit.She said it smelled like it watered down.

I bought this last year and I am extremely happy with it . It is %100 original and the aroma stays for a long time. I always get a compliment when I wear it. I recommend this perfume %100. Good luck

Have not purchased this item from a department store, but can tell you, for me at least, it lasts all day and if I wear a sweater or similar item soon after using Wonderstruck, I can still smell it faintly the next time I wear the sweater. Not to say it is overpowering, but I only use a little spritz. However, I am not one to appreciate perfume or cologne on someone that you can smell from 10 feet away. To me, perfume should only be noticed when you are within two feet or so of a person. That being said, this lasts as long through the day as any perfume I have ever tried.

I believe it is the old fragrance. I ordered it for a friend & she said it smells just like the one I had.

fake or expired even from amazon this is a problem for yrs. none of the scents last as long as their dept store counter parts. I've tried Perfume cologne all of them polo Burberry dior Gevenchy Dolce Gabbana all were noticeably different and weaker then dept store bought brands. You may get lucky and the warehouse is storing them correctly, not expired or not stealing them and replacing them. But I have not had that luck even from amazon I have a strict no third party sellers policy if available through amazon. These are more comparable to the outlet mall kiosks stores that sell markdown expired perfume in the walk ways. If that is what your used to it will smell real. But know if you go to a dept store and get it Macy's dillards etc. it will last longer and be stronger. 1/2 to 1 spritz should last most the day. Vs 2 or 3 for half a day as these are prone to be like.

All perfumes have been reformulated due to government regulations over the years. The old ingredients they used to contain are now blacklisted, so the reformulations don't smell like they used to. The 4 oz. bottle you mentioned is probably one of two things...it is perhaps an original formula, thus the high price. If that is the case, it might not have been stored well and might not smell good as it is old. Or, it could be the reformulated version, and in this case, you might not like what you smell when you get it. This perfume was my all time favorite for years, but I cannot bear to smell it now. It is no longer Lauren to me. I would not buy it at that price. Get a smaller, cheaper bottle from Amazon and see what you think of the reformulation. Good luck!

One more thing...I wouldn't buy this on Amazon. The one I bought from Amazon was an obvious fake and they don't accept returns for fragrances. I did eventually get my money back, but it wasn't worrh the hassle. But as I stated in my previous answer, even the real one only lasts a short time and isn't worth the money.

It seemed to me that this fragrance disappeared for a while a year or two ago and I couldn't find it anywhere. Maybe they did revise it and in that case I haven't tried it or even smelled it. I was addicted to this fragrance for years and if it has changed I probably won't buy it anymore.
