Hi everyone! I need some advice. I fell in love with Britney Spears Fantasy after trying a sample. The performance was amazing –people could smell it on me and it lasted all day.
Based on that, I bought a full 100ml bottle from a reputable retailer. However, the 100ml bottle feels much weaker. I feel like the scent just disappears after a few minutes, while the sample was a beast.
I checked the batch code (Y23x24c) and it’s from October 2023, so it's not an old bottle. I’ve already sprayed it about 20 times to let some air in.
Has anyone else experienced this? Does a new 100ml bottle need time to macerate/sit to become as strong as the sample? Or is the quality of the 100ml bottles just different?
Thanks!
