Four steps before the shelf
Source
France, the USA, Dubai. No grey-market stock, no single bottles from other sellers.
Batch code
The code under the bottle matches the code stamped under the box. Look it up on CheckFresh for the production date; no bottle on the shelf is more than 3 years old.
Storage
A dark store room at 18–22°C, bottles upright. Never left in a car or by a window.
Returns
7 days, with the cellophane and box intact. A sprayed bottle is exchanged only if the sprayer fails or leaks. Counterfeit: full refund.
Questions about genuine stock
Why does the same perfume smell slightly different between two purchases?
Each lot is blended again to the formula, and natural materials change with the harvest, so the top notes can shift a little. The base stays almost the same. The batch code tells you which lot a bottle is from.
How can I tell a box was opened and resealed?
Factory cellophane has straight folds and a thin heat seal. Resealed wrap is usually thicker, with glue marks or creases at the corners.
Do you sell 10 ml decants?
No. YL&L sells only whole bottles in their boxes.
Not sure which bottle?
Send YL&L three scents you have liked and a budget. You get two or three bottles back, and which notes they share.
