Louis Vuitton batch code checker

Louis Vuitton codes can give indicative years for supported recent layouts. Five independent photo sources support the first digit as a year digit, but do not establish the rollover date or a month table. We show the possible years without choosing the newest. The house offers refills: a bottle stamp cannot date a later refill.

You can also enter a printed manufacture date, e.g. MFG: 01/2024. Expiry dates are not production dates.

Free, no signup. We save the submitted brand, code and result to improve this checker. Please enter only the batch code.

Try Louis Vuitton as a decant first

Where Louis Vuitton prints the code

On the base of the bottle and on the box.

What the characters mean

On supported recent bottles and refill containers: a digit, a letter and two digits (6G02). Independent photos support a cautious year reading from 2020 onward. We list every possible year, including the preceding year, and keep an older-era possibility unless the fragrance launch excludes it. The letter and final digits are not decoded.

Worked example

6G02

reads as 2026, 2025 or before 2020

Louis Vuitton batch code questions

Does a Louis Vuitton code follow the same format as Dior?

The supported recent layout has the same shape: a digit, a letter and two digits. Louis Vuitton has its own photo evidence for the year digit; sharing a group alone would not be enough. Our evidence covers 2020 onward, the preceding year remains possible, and we do not decode a month. Older bottles and later refills need packaging and provenance to resolve.

How do I check a Louis Vuitton fragrance is genuine?

Match the code on the bottle against the code on the box, then judge the object: the weight and finish of the glass, the fit of the cap, the evenness of the spray and the precision of the engraving. At this price the channel matters most — the house sells through its own boutiques and website, so a bottle from anywhere else deserves a harder look.

Is a decant a sensible way to try Louis Vuitton?

It is the obvious one. A full bottle costs several times what most designer fragrances do, and the range leans on fine citrus, tea and woody materials that are easier to judge on skin over a day than on a blotter in a boutique.

Same scheme, other houses

These brands are also made by LVMH. A shared maker does not guarantee a shared code layout, so each page describes the codes we have actually seen for that house.

Before you buy a full bottle of Louis Vuitton

Try a scent on your skin for a few days before you pay for a full bottle. Each decant is poured from a full-size bottle whose source we log.

Try Louis Vuitton before you commit

Checking a batch code is usually a way of asking whether a bottle is worth the money. A Louis Vuitton decant answers that on your own skin, poured from a bottle whose source we log — no marketplace gamble, no full-bottle regret.
