    Don't be silly of course you can't do that.

    Put yourself in the shops shoes, a person walks in and says "I have this perfume I have no receipt but I want you to give me money for it"
    Would you honestly respond with "of course, not a problem"

    OP didn't say she wanted a refund, she said she wanted an exchange, which isn't a problem for most large stores. So not so silly after all.

    OP, if you hang on to them until after Christmas Boots will probably exchange them for a different perfume, they usually allow this up to mid January ish.

    And for the record, I've taken back Chanel perfume to John Lewis and exchanged it for different Chanel products, no receipt, no problem.


    Thank you. I've only ever exchanged something when I knew what shop it was from so was worried the barcode would be different. I'll try after christmas :)

    Link please.

    Can I return an item without a receipt?

    Yes you can, however you will only be able to exchange your item for other products (exclusions apply)
    Please note: Without a receipt a product can only be exchanged in store.

    With respect I am sure you are capable of searching on the website the same as I did and would have to do again to get the link.

    That said, while their website supports what you said, I suspect you should only be exchanging items that you actually purchased in Debenhams.

    That's what I have done previously, which is why I wasn't sure this time not knowing where they had been purchased. I will take peachyprice's advice, if they refuse I am no worse off and can try ebay :)

    No need to be rude is there....Manners cost nothing.

    I still very much doubt you will be able to get an exchange but good luck with it.

    Debenhams don't exchange perfume, with a receipt or without a receipt.

    (Unless faulty, before anyone pipes up :p )
