3 fake Clémence & Vivien stores sell its gift card at 65% off, from $3.50

One kit built all three stores

The three live stores load an identical stylesheet file and share one page layout. Two show the same 'What Our Customers Say' block with the same three reviewer names. Two claim '10,000+ happy customers', '500+ products' and '50+ countries', though each has only 71 to 73 products. All three resolve to the same hosting network. Three of the four domains used the same registrar, and the fourth shares name servers with two of them. That fourth, clemenceetvivienshop.shop, was registered on 14 May 2026 and is now on registry hold.

The catalogues went up as soon as the domains existed. clemenceetvivienhq.shop was registered at 04:29 UTC on 17 May 2026, and its sitemap dates every product between 04:34 and 04:36 that morning. clemenceetvivienbrand.shop's 73 products are dated within 12 seconds of its registration on 19 July 2026. clemenceetvivienbeauty.shop was registered at 00:33:47 UTC on 22 July 2026, and its 73 products are dated 10 to 11 seconds later. Timings like these point to an automated build, though sitemap dates alone can't prove when a page first went live. Each store also lists one item missing from the brand's current public catalogue, a summer kit or a sun supplement. We could not confirm whether these are older Clémence & Vivien products.

Pricing varies by store. clemenceetvivienhq.shop marks all 71 products 65% off, at around 41% of the brand's euro price. clemenceetvivienbrand.shop discounts 33 of the 72 items we matched and shows the brand's own prices, in dollars, on the rest. clemenceetvivienbeauty.shop advertises 'up to 70% off' but discounts only 11 of its 72 matched items. The others cost about 14% more than at Clémence & Vivien, roughly the euro price converted to dollars. The Crème légère désaltérante is one of the discounted 11, at $5.54 against the brand's €13.90.

Complaints go to the brand, or to nowhere

None of the contact details lead to the people running the stores. clemenceetvivienhq.shop lists a support address on clmencevivien.com, the brand's name with one letter missing. That domain was unregistered when we checked, so mail sent there is unlikely to arrive. clemenceetvivienbrand.shop gives a support address on clemenceetvivien.com, the brand's real domain. A complaint sent there would reach Clémence & Vivien, if the address exists, and never the shop that took the order. clemenceetvivienbeauty.shop names itself after a well-known payment service in its page title, About page and support address, a sign of a carelessly filled template.

The gift card is the clearest risk. Clémence & Vivien issues its cards as codes for use on its own site. The clones sell them at 65% off, and the copied description still says the card works on clemenceetvivien.com. We placed no order, so we cannot say what a buyer receives. We entered no personal or payment details on any of the stores.

Marketplaces clean, 14 hijacked pages in search

Marketplaces were mostly quiet. Alibaba, AliExpress and Temu returned unrelated products. On eBay, a few small sellers listed single Clémence & Vivien items, such as soaps, a balm and a face oil, at prices close to the brand's, and we found nothing to suggest they are fakes. Exact-image search on the brand's product photos returned many listings across European Amazon sites. Some are multipacks priced above the brand: a three-pack of the 50 ml balm costs €26.90 on Amazon France, against €6.50 each on the brand's site. We could not match these sellers to the brand, and found no evidence they sell anything but genuine stock.

Image search also surfaced 14 pages on unrelated websites, from small businesses to institutions, carrying Clémence & Vivien photos in search results. Ten used the brand's product names in their search titles, such as 'Masque fraîcheur hydratant - Clémence et Vivien'. We are not naming them. A sweep of more than 300 other name and extension combinations found no further stores, only a few parked domains. TikTok and ad library searches failed during this scan, so social channels are not covered.
