Mint. It is hard to describe a bottle in original packaging with contents and labels as anything other than mint. This does have some grime on the outer surface. The instruction manual is discoloured but in great condition. The box is in good condition, obviously opened at the end with the sticker that was on top being curled up. Simply stunning piece.
