I recently came across this listing and I’m curious to know if this is fake since I haven’t seen this back of bottle before. Thanks in advance!

It looks fine. Likely 1997. The lines 'Chanel Paris, Chanel New York and Neuilly Sur Seine' were on the back of the bottle from 2005 onwards.

You may not have seen it before because you haven't seen a bottle that early!
Thank you very much for the answer. Seller claims this is from 2006 but he might be wrong. What I have never seen before is the back of the bottle writing Chanel New York only. This is why it felt suspicious to me… I guess this is as you say. It must be the period the put edt bellow chanel and introduced the short ingredient list.

8206 would be June 2006. But if that were the case it would have 'Chanel Paris, Chanel New York and Neuilly Sur Seine' on the bottle instead of just New York... as that came in, in 2005. But it could be an older crossover bottle around that time frame.

Here's an older (pre 1995) bottle with just the London address

As per rotls site the significant change happened around 1995. EDT placement, short ingredient list, silver cap. So you are probably right and this is a 1997 bottle. I really appreciate your time!

What is the rotls site you mention?

edit: ach. Raiders of the Lost Scent, of course. Was hoping for another new resource I could look into.
