I have a label I wanted some advice on. Its a Cohiba magicos, and it looks genuine to me, with the new gold and everything, but the COHIBA and the box its in are smaller than it is on the label of a regular Cohiba like the Siglo VI. Is that normal? I have a picture of it but i'm not sure how to post it. My email should be on the website so shoot me an email and i'll send it to you. Thanks.

The bolivar and the siglo vi I know are legit because I bought them at the LCDH. The Partagas and the Magicos were bought at a run of the mill tobacco shop in Rome

The both look fake to me, it's harder to tell with the psd #4 because it such a simple label but the red looks a bit too bright and the magicos one is definitely fake, the top row of dots is cut off plus the MADURO 5 is way more silver and defined than that.

I couldn't tell much of a difference between the cohiba bands that I have, so I'd say they are legit, but then again, bands don't mean much nowadays. Did you get these at La Casa del Habanos? If so then they are real, if not, you can e-mail me where you got it from and I might be able to tell you if it's legit or not depending if I know the source. But please don't post the source here.

The siglo vi and the boli are real, it's the maduro and the psd that he was curious about

oohhhhh, haha I need to read more carefully, well, the PSD4 band is legit, and again, that band is pretty easily faked so it still doesn't mean much. I can't say anything on the Cohiba M5s since I haven't smoked them, but I'm sure others will be able to tell you

I'm definitely no expert, but look at the bottom row of dots on the Cohiba Maduro label. The bottom row of dots is actually bigger than the other 4 rows so I'm guessing that's a tell-tale sign of being fake.
Comparing your Siglo band with the ones I have, it appears to be real. The Maduro, on the other hand, has a couple of discrepancies, ie; the "Habana, Cuba" font runs into the "Cohiba" text box with little room between. I don't have Maduros at this time so, it's just my opinion. All that aside, How did it smoke?

the Partagas looks EXACTLY the same as mine, so I got the same fakes.
