Not if I wanted it to be genuine I wouldn’t!
Even if it was genuine it could be very old and stale .

Sahara123 No you are probably right .I was also a bit worried lest any tampering may have gone on as well .Think I will give it a miss!

If it's a seller with solid feedback, I do buy used or unboxed perfume. I may have just been lucky but have had great deals and the perfume (Chanel and YSL perfumes) have been perfect. (Have been able to verify via bought-new bottles of my own that have nearly finished.) I can understand being wary but it can work and it means that I can still have my favourites without guilt!

I've done it plenty of times. Never had a fake. Just partly used bottles of things I like, which presumably the seller decided they didn't like.

As pp said, check feedback first. I've sold a few bottles of my MiLs big name stuff after she died and everybody was happy.
