The Roger&Gallet batch code — also called the lot code, lot number or serial number — is a short 4–8 character stamp of letters and numbers, usually embossed rather than printed in ink, and it is never the barcode. On a bottle or jar look at the base; on a tube look near the crimp/seal at the end; on a boxed perfume or fragrance check a flap or side of the box; on makeup check the underside of the compact or inside the pan.

About Roger&Gallet batch codes

Roger&Gallet codes encode the production date.

Most unopened cosmetics and fragrances keep for about 30–36 months from manufacture. Once opened, follow the PAO (open-jar) symbol — it usually matters more than any printed expiration date.

We've read 10 Roger&Gallet batch codes so far, the newest was made July 2020, and the typical Roger&Gallet product people check here is about 169 months old.

Can the batch code tell me if my Roger&Gallet is authentic? Not on its own. A code that decodes to a sensible date is a good sign, but counterfeiters copy real codes from genuine packs, so a valid code cannot prove a Roger&Gallet product is authentic. Buy from Roger&Gallet or an authorised retailer, and compare the packaging, print quality and seal with one you know is genuine.

Does Roger&Gallet expire?

Yes — like all cosmetics and fragrances, Roger&Gallet products have a limited shelf life. Unopened they typically last 30–36 months from the manufacture date, and the batch code above tells you how old yours already is. After opening, the PAO (open-jar) symbol — e.g. "12M" — is a better guide than any printed expiration date.
