Possibly...Grumpy_chap said:
There are no longer stores to spray the perfume in.Okell said:
Did they give you any instructions in respect of the bottle from Debenhams?Penelope63 said:Thank you for all your replies, the person that said to contact Estée Lauder direct helped a lot, I did just this & they are sending me out a new bottle, not sure how this works as It was Bought from Debenhams online. Thank you all
If they didn't then if I were your husband I'd be inclined to have some fun with Debenhams...
Any pursuit that may result in the OP being refunded / product replaced by Debenhams would be unjust enrichment.
Not a good idea I suppose...

With no physical stores to spray the rancid perfume in and a refund being unjust enrichment, if I were the OP I'd simply complain again to Debenhams and compare their hopeless handling of the situation with Estee Lauder's.
Nothing to lose and might see a gesture of goodwill - but I wouldn't hold my breath1 -

Estée Lauder has a good reputation and lovely products. I bought some nail varnish which kept peeling. I contacted them and not only did they refund my money with an apology but sent me a new bottle of nail varnish.0
