for my first formal date. I still think of her if an older woman walks by wearing that scent. My first date with my husband I wore Eternity.

Still love the scent of gardenia.

I transitioned into Grey Flannel later on, finally eschewing olfactory enhancement therapy altogether, preferring to remain scentless.I was surprised by a yuge bottle of Grey Flannel on my last birthday that I just know is a lifetime supply -and then some.

Anise is liquorice, might make some run

if you can find it now it is not the same at all. though there are other decent lavender products out there. I just kind of got tired of it and am now on the search for citrus scents.

Sweet Honesty; Wind Song. One other - L’Heure Bleu by Gurlaine. I had to stop wearing this one because my husband said it gave him a headache. I was worried because I thought he said I gave him a headache 🤕 😆

At your neck and call.

It was called Iron. It smelled pretty good; not cheap or overwhelming at all. My future wife liked it. She associated the smell with me so strongly that she just called it "Smells Like Bob".

Now she has an intolerance to fragrances. She used to be a fragrance model back in the day, and I guess all those years of inhaling those strong perfumes ruined them for her.

It was all the rage when I was 'that age'.

I can wear Coty Wild Musk but I can't wear Jovan Musk.

The Jovan brand makes me sneeze like crazy!

some family friends gave me a gift set. it wasn't bad. I have never been much into "artificial stench" I remember having some kind of spray that was green apple scent and came in a glass bottle shaped like an apple.

I recently found and ordered lemon up products at Vermont Country Store. disappointing both in quality and the scent. guess you can't go back to the past.

Unscented soap, shampoo, deodorant, laundry detergent...

I find scents distracting, sort of like itchy clothes. I've also got a good seam ripper so I can remove the tags from shirts.

Skinny Dip, of course.

(Agree) but that didn't sink it and my hair was long so people may have thought I was wearing perfume when I was not.

My grandmother used their lavender so that was a no-go for me.

Later I wore Shalimar and L'Heure Bleu. Now I almost never wear any scent because I never go anywhere dressy.

Sadly they quit making Chloe.

And I still love it.

Hard to find, though.
