this fragrance was wrapped in bubble wrap ALOT. Around 5 layers I would say and then it still comes in a box which protects the flacon again. It seems VERY unlikly that it would break.

It could've been fractured at the manufacturing plant prior to shipment, hence a single drop on a hard surface can cause It to break.

Should I go ahead with the claim

It's a fact that glass Is susceptible to breakage, Irrespective of Its packaging, so you're good to go with the broken glass method.

The SE succeeded.
I sent them a picture of the broken bottle alongside with a personal note and got offered a replacement or refund right away.
I extracted the fragrance into another bottle and smashed the original bottle myself, as I didn't like the flacon anyways.

This should be a very safe way to execture this method for beginners like me.

I don't know why but the fact that you had to sacrifice the bottle was kinda funny.
Good shit on the SE tho
