List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like Back!
Why don't we build a "database" of all the discontinued scents we'd like to have back? Maybe then we could start efforts to get them back. I know there are tons of them, but I don't have the time to go through every posting there is, so maybe just a simple list with name of perfume and manufacturer....that way everything would be in one string and we might be able to help each other better.
Sound like a good idea? Let me know what you think about trying to at least get 1 board that would have all names on it. I don't want to do away with the others, but this one could be a "quick refererence board". |

Desperately looking for 2 colognes that have been discontinued and have been unsuccessful in loacating...
1. Musk Solid Cologne in black compact, circa late 1970's, unknown manufacturer...last located it in a small, private pharmacy (by my surprise delight!) in 1993, so it was manufactured at least into the early 90's. Anyone can help me find this, would surely appreciate any and all leads!!!
2. Sonoma eau de toilette spray cologne, manufactured and sold at Kohl's department stores in late 90's to early 2000.
Absolutely loved these scents and would pay about anything to secure a bottle or two...thanks! |

I am the chief perfumer with Martecci's Fine Fragrances. If you want a discontinued scent to come back, I need one ounce or more of the original in great smelling condition and at a sufficient number of pre-payers to indicate demand for me to consider initiating the project.
For example if you desire Laura Ashley No. 1, Unihibited by Cher, Heaven Sent by MEM, or Heaven Sent by Rubenstein, or Chaos perfume by DK, I can make it to order for you.
EMMA by Laura Ashley, the limited edition (?) Laura Ashley No. 3, and Andiamo by Princess Marcella Borghese are my current projects. Just email me with your specific request at martecci@cox.net, or see my transitional site at http://members.cox.net/heartlandmerch/

Tribu eau de parfum- totally different from the still-available edp
Woodhue! I still remember that wood-grain cap, the way it spun off when I would sneak some from my mother's make-up table; it would get all over my hands. Strange to think it was a 'drugstore' fragrance- it was wonderful.
Tigress- to me, this was the grown-up, city living 'older sister' of Woodhue.
Gosh, I miss the Tribu edp. It was spicy/sweet but not cloying. It was the BEST!
This is kind of lame 'help', but Suzanne, I did see Ici and Fire and Ice on the internet- I just can't remember where- I'm sorry. But I DID see them! good luck |

| Can anyone tell me what this perfume was? My stepmother got it as a present in 1966 and thought it was overwhelming, so she gave it to me to wear w/ jeans and sneakers as an 11-year-old tomboy for fun, and I loved it. It was Parisian, and the bottle was cobalt blue glass, squat, on a pedastal, with a fake gold leaf covering (gold outside, brilliant dark blue inside), and the stopper was dome-shaped. The scent was intense, maybe musky, not very floral and not old-ladyish. Based on the look of the thing I think it may have been something called Gamine, which I saw in a perfume book on display at a vintage perfume store in Montmartre. I have NO other clues. This is one of those transport-me-back-to-childhood things. Thanks! |

| Yes, Parry, and that is free of charge... Until a certain point if after several tries you are still not satisfied, then they charge lab fees. I have worked with three such companies. Both here in So. Cal and back east. One finally got a match to my formula. But god knows how they duplicated it. They didn't use my exact formula. You don't own the formula or see what's in it. That way you have to go to them to have it made. On my second two formulas I said to hell with this and batched them myself and saved a lot of money. But of course they were my original formulas and I didn't have to match something particular. There are about five main houses that sell raw materials and you can order them if they think you are a pro company. |

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
| Like in so many other areas, federal and state laws have stepped in increasingly and have classified MANY former perfume ingredients as environmentally or personally hazardous. Such is the case with the wonderful and distinctive "nitro musks" which gave so many perfumes a distinctive richness. Manufacturers have had to reformulate probably the majority of scents to comply with such laws, changing the basic character of many fragrances. Many odorants just aren't available to the perfumer anymore. |

The start-up costs are outrageous. I'm a beginner at marketing fragrances myself. I found that you have to buy a minimum of ten thousand sprayers and caps, min. Of 5K bottles. Bottle decorators and fillers don't want to deal with orders under 5K, packaging costs are about a dollar a box with liner. Don't forget, your fragrance doesn't only have to smell good, but it must look luxurious, too, so you can't go cheap. I figure my products are costing me about $10 a unit as a small manufacturer. It would be much cheaper if I were Procter and Gamble, etc. Also, if you go to stores to sell, they will prefer to deal with you if you have more than one scent to sell...so... Anyway, it is costing me several hunderd thousand dollars to produce three. Your main expenses are bottles, decorating bottles (silkscreening, etc), a package, filling charges per bottle, your perfume oil at between $55-$130 a pound, and pumps and overcaps. As a beginner in the field, stores can't charge more than about $45 per bottle as you are an unknown. That means you sell for about $17 as there is a high mark up. It's a nightmare, but I love doing it. It has to be a passion. I am still waiting to see profits. I don't mean to discourage you, if you are like me, go for it. |

| Yes, a lot of formerly used chems and even natural products have had limitations put on them about usage level or use at all. One example I cited are the very nice "nitro" musks such as musk xylene which were WIDELY used because of their particularly nice musk odor. Orris root, and some chems that give a cinnamon smell such as cinnamaldehyde. Some rules are by state and some federal, some international. Any non-adherence to these rules restricts the sales area of a product to China or somewhere like that. |

Storer,
Thanks for the information. Too much money for my wallet. Are there people who can analize a fragrance and duplicate it the best that they can? I know that each fragrance has it's own formula and it's probably a well kept secret. But, what if someone came to you with a perfume? Could you come close to duplicating it? If not, are there people or companies that can do that?
Thanks.

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
| Yes, Perry, there are a number of companies here and abroad that specialize in matching a "target" fragrance, but they do it expecting that you are goinig to buy quite a few pounds of the raw oil from them for manufacture. You can't go in and ask for just one bottle unless you cleverly lie to them about your intentions. (They don't charge to do the duplication itself), so you could fake them out. ;-) |

My mother used Woodhue and she died when I was six, so that was a long-time favorite. I started using Galore by Scandia ($7 a bottle) in 1973. Germaine Montail then began Galore distribution and cost went up, but at least it was everywhere. Now, I can only find the cologne. No powder, lotion, gift sets or extra goodies are anywhere to be found.

Hi Claudia,
Don't feel bad, as you were trying to help people find perfumes they may be looking for, at a fair price. There are many posts on this site that are pro & con on the Vermont Country Store. My opinion happens to be they con people with the nostalgic come on, & hit ya in the wallet once your hooked by their "yesteryear" appeal. The perfumes "just as you remember them," that they sell are not Originals from long ago. They are remakes, packaged to look pretty much like the "Real Deal," only they aren't. They smell totally different, for the same reason, they aren't the Originals. The legitamite perfumes that you can get there, are way, way, cheaper on other perfume sites. They pull this with other items as well. A this or that is back just as you remember it, & it's priced through the roof. Then you walk into Wal- Mart, or some other store & find the same thing dirt cheap compared to their prices. This just happens to be my opinion. But Claudia, you should never feel bad about trying to help someone, & that's what you were doing when you posted here.

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
| Unfortunately, NONE of the old fragrances are going to smell the "same as you remember it", simply because of the quality of ingredients has drastically changed. Everything is synthetic now; the actual scent oils are manufactured in a laboratory. Back in the day, perfumers used real animal and plant products in their fragrances. So no matter how they try, nothing will ever smell like the real thing "as you remember it" again. |

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
Hi Felicia,
You got that right !! Animal cruelty laws prevent certain oils, & ingredients from being used now in perfumes. Those were the very thing that gave Original perfumes their wonderful lasting power, & held the auroma that we all remember & loved so much, no matter what our favorite scent was back then.
I see Heaven Sent a lot on this message board. If it isn't by Helena Rubenstein, then it isn't Heaven Sent, period. And other than ebay, collector sites are the place to look under discontinued perfumes, or vanity items.

| I've been fortunate with the quality of Galore that I have purchased from various perfume sites. While I'm not ecstatic about buying my cologne from Five Star, it smells the same as it did when it had fancier names like Germaine Monteil or Scandia. :) I must say, I like finding it at reasonable prices. Now, if I could extend that pricing and availability to the lotion and powder! Greedy aren't I? I doubt there are many lesser known fragrances that have been available for so long. It was introduced in 1964 and I discovered it in 1973. I always resented being ambushed passing through the cosmetics area of department stores, but the day I was "spritzed" with Galore changed my fragrance life. I know we are "supposed" to change fragrances frequently, but I love having strangers stop me to compliment the same fragrance my friends' grown children call "Claudia's Galore"! |

Hello Kathy,
Both Bond Street (by Yardley,) & Golden Autumn, (by Prince Matchabellii,) are very hard to come by. Ebay, & collector sites are a good source to look for them. I just checked, & there is quite a bit of Golden Autumn listed on Ebay now. Look for it in Health and Beauty.
As far as Blue Grass, (I love it ) you can get it everywhere, & quite reasonable too. Glorious is harder to find now, but here's a site where you can get them both.

My List:
Herbessence by Helena Rubinstein
Unforgettable by Revlon
Blue Carnation by Roger & Gallet
Woodhue by Fabrege
Beloved by Prince Machebelli
Fire and Ice by Revlon
Ici by Coty
Galore by Germaine Monteil or Scandia (5 Star is atrocious! NOTHING like the original!)
Moonwind by Avon
...and lots, LOTS more! It's just too depressing writing them down ... Not trying to rain on anyones parade, but in reality, more than likely, they're not coming back. The few that have made the attempt (for example Heaven Scent!) is a far cry from the original since they change the formula in the process. It's truly sad.
I'm aware you can get some of the old originals on Ebay or other sites, but the cost is astronomical! And they are so old, that the scent has obviously been affected. Not worth the asking price for an ancient bottle of weak perfume. |

You can always try Vermont Country Store for some disc. Fragrances.
NOTE: times have changed, and many American fragrances are chemically synthesized from petroleum byproducts; everything but the most expensive and exclusive scents no longer use animal products or endangered plant species, so they may not smell like we remember them ( especially anything with musk, civet, some kinds of flowers, or ambergris in it). |

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
As I've told people before, on other threads for discontinued perfumes, etc. The Vermont Country Store DOES NOT HAVE THE ORIGINAL ITEMS. THEY ARE CHEAP-SMELLING FAKES, not to mention, they're expensive for horrible way they smell.
If ANY OF YOU, are interested in the TRUE ORIGINALS, the best source of finding them and paying a 'reasonable' price, is on eBay. Just do a 'World-Wide' search. There are other sites, of course, that you'll be able to find these perfumes/fragrances of days gone by, but you can be sure that you will PAY for them DEARLY...and I do mean DEARLY.
So, stick to eBay. Forget The Vermont Country Store, they will flim-flam you with AWFUL fakes.
Even Irma Shorell, does not sell the originals; they have re-formulated some Perfumes like "My Sin", and although it smells nice, it's NOTHING like the original.
Well, now for my list: I would love to have Tigress, Chanel No 22 (original), Arpege (original), My Sin (Lanvin), Crescendo (Lanvin), Rumeur (Lanvin), Scandal (Lanvin), Danger (Ciro), Eau de Love, Heaven Sent by Helena Rubenstein, Brocade (Avon), Ecusson (original), Farouche by Nina Ricci, Ambush, Tabu, Cachet (original), and of course, THE MUSKS - such as:
RH Macy Musk Oil, West-Cabot (NOT Cabot) Original Natural Musk Oil, Satana Oil of Musk, Jovan (original), Houbigant Musk, and ANY Natural Musks of the 1970s. These, of course, EXCLUDE ALL the Musks today that are manufactured in the United States.
The ONLY way, you can get 'Natural' Musk oils, as far as I know, you have to inquire overseas, or go to some foreign website. Nowadays, here in the USA, they use artificial or flower 'White Musks' which smell Nothing like the originals, which when dabbed and rubbed onto your skin, lasted for days on end, and drove anyone in your vecinity MAD with pleasure. They would follow your scent trail. Trust me on this.
Ah, to have those golden days of yore....when Magical Fragrances reigned supreme!!! |

Ritz by Charles of the Ritz - does anyone know if you can still get that?
Stevie B by Max Factor - real teenage scent for me but it was amazing!
Venezia was amazing - why on earth was it discontinued, Laura Biagotti?? I found some in the Middle East and bought it up - have only got a little left which is guarded fiercely for special occasions.
And the ultimate for me was VU by Ted Lapidus - really wonderful - still hunting that one down. I did find it on e-bay but someone bid against me ruthlessly until I had to stop! They were obviously a fan too.

I suggested he start a "perfume club" and offer recreated perfumes for his subscribers. Please let him know if you would be interested in this idea. Wouldn't it be great to have samples of all of our old favorites, with a "perfume of the month" offered from his re-creations? Keeping fingers crossed. |

Re: Woodhue By Faberge
Woodhue
Just bought the pricey www.thefragrancefactory.com Woodhue. It really is the 'real deal' and the bottle was tightly sealed and carton perfect shape. With age, the cork liner in the bottle cap had literally 'welded' itself to the mouth of the bottle - probably a good thing as the cologne was in perfect shape after 40 or so years. Just as I remembered from those halcyon days of my youth.
I am glad though that I purchased and it is what it is supposed to be! Brings back memories for sure. If your looking for the REAL DEAL In Faberge Fragrance www.thefragrancefactory.com is the place to go they also sell the real "Tigress,Straw Hat,Babe, Kiku, and all the other rare ones. |

| I can't stand companies who discontinue scents (or indeed anything - ie., lipstick shades) without consulting their customers. It is the height of arrogance! After all, who put them where they are in the first place. These days there seems to be a mania for 'celebrity' perfumes. Most of them are, quite frankly, awful. Indeed there is a sameness - all nauseating and heavy. My personal favourite is Masumi - what on earth provoked Coty to get rid of it and keep L'Aimant (not half as nice and yet still going after 80 years!) ANother one I like it Lichfield - it was brought out by Woods of Windsor in the 90's in conjunction with the late Lord Lichfield. Again - gone - and yet it knocks spots off the overpriced pungent dross we see in the shops today! That's enough ranting for tonight - thanks for letting me get that off my chest! Incidentally I emailed Coty re the Masumi - they didn't reply (no surprises there...) |

| Anyone looking for Love's Musky Jasmin - forget it. If you do find it it'll probably ridiculously expensive. But I did find a wonderful fragrance from Avon called "Flower" by Cynthia Rowley that is the closest thing to Musky Jasmin that I've ever smelled. Not an exact match but close enough it brought back memories when I first smelled it. It's really a beautiful scent. Around 30 dollars for a 1.7 oz bottle so it's not too expensive that you don't want to try it. You may even be able to get a sample vial first. That's what I did. Good luck ladies in all your perfume searches. And what about Babe? I'd love to see that one too...... |

*A BUYER BEWARE/Caveat Emptor Warning to ALL those who are told to find their Favourite Fragrances at
VERMONT COUNTRY STORE!!!!
You will be wasting your money - these Fragrances are AWFUL, and they're expensive for the VERY Poor quality Vermont Country Store offers. The reason I know this is that I have bought quite a few of these products at the Vermont Country Store such as:
Their version of FABERGE TIGRESS, STRAW HAT, and others.
Needless to say, I was sorely disappointed that I had spent my money on such garbage.
To those of you who have used the orginals and you've got the 'Nose' as they say in the Fragrance Industry, you will NOT be satisfied with what The Vermont Country Store is offering for sale.
Do yourselves a favour and stick with the ORIGINALS - you can't go wrong with them.
But if you want to find out the hard way - go right ahead, just take note that you've been forewarned.
Best of Luck. |

Website: www.shopLondons.com
Phone: 1-434-220-0540 (very nice lady was still there at 6pm eastern stndrd time).
They don't have a catalog but you can see what they have to offer online and then order either online or by phone. Prices are really great and they ship really fast. I sent out order by snail mail on Saturday and I received my order the following Thursday (Ct to Virginia).
Send check, m.o. Or credit card. Warning if you are in a rush: They hold onto checks for 2 weeks before sending out
Order. |

| I absolutely love the mens cologne "Trouble". Nothing has ever quite measured up to it. I know it was manufactured by Mennen. Even in the 70's you couldn't keep it on the shelf due to it's popularity. If someone could clone this exact smell, you'd have a goldmine. |

I desperately want:
Lou Lou by Cacharel (Several years ago I heard it was discontinued in the USA and was only being released in Paris.) I have one tiny little bit left and it still smells the same.
The Ritz by Charles - just about the best smelling scent I have ever had. Everyone loved it on me.
Charles of the Ritz - Lots of compliments
Tommy Freedom by Tommy Hilfiger
For those of you looking for any Avon things, have you contacted anyone associated with Avon? From time to time they have little specials with "old" items available but I don't know how far back they go.
To the one looking for Murasaki by Shiseido - I like that too and I have about 1/3 a bottle of it that I still wear occasionally.
There used to be a fragrance when I was a kid and I think it was by Revlon but I'm not sure. It was Hypnotique or Hypnotic (not sure how it's spelled.) |

| I would give anything if Jovan would bring back Andron for Women(there was a Andron for Men also). I wore Andron for Women exclusively. They discontinued it years ago,don't know why. It was a pheromone based perfume. I don't know if the pheromones really did anything or not, but I loved the scent and always felt special when I wore it. It was my signature scent. Got tons of compliments on it, from men and women. I have never found a perfume since that smells as wonderful as Andron! Jovan would make a KILLING if they would bring back the original Andron scents.I want my ANDRON BACK! |

| I would like to see Windjammer come back. I like to see any colonge that has a similar scent to Surf Aqua Velva. I heard Windjammer has a similar scent but Windjammer too is no longer around. I recently asked somebody on another website if he can find any aftershave in the world that has a similar scent to Surf Aqua Velva and he said he couldn't find any. I know for a fact that Avon made it a long time ago and I believe a couple of other companies made it too. I would love to see Windjammer come back. All I got is a empty bottle of it that I won on Ebay that's from 1969. The only reason why I wanted it is because 1969 was the year I was born. |

Someone needs to wake up to the fact that we baby-boomers now have $$ to spend, and are at a point in life where we're attending reunions, reconnecting with our pasts, and would love to connect with old memories.

I also know you can get two of the Laura Ashely perfumes there... Excellent indeed ......and my favorites....
They also have recreated Heaven Sent by Mem which I think was also licensed to Rubentein before they sold it to Dana, whoich reformulated the scent.
One more thing, if you are interested in having Martecci's recreate MY SIN BY LAVIN, TIGRESS BY FABERGE, SCANDAL BY LAVIN, MADAME BY ROCHAS, NORELL, NORELL 2, OR EMMA BY LAURA ASHLEY, them contact them via email which is martecci@cox.net.
ANYHOW just check out Martecci's site, and if you want, email them for some really good recommendations...
If I were to suggest something for floral lovers, I wold say to try LACORDAIRE by Martecci, and for citrus lovers, or people who like perfumes like Andiamo, you should try Richelieu by Martecci...and also particpate int he Andiamo pre-pay they have going... |

| So many of the perfumes today have a sweet sickly smell. I was told to extend the actual perfume, they put formeldyhyde in it. Well I would love to see Cinnabar Lotion to come back, by Estee Lauder. I also liked a few of Avons perfumes named Bird of Paradise, Topaz, Candid, Sweet Honesty, and a few others. They either have been discontinued or don't smell like the original perfume I use to buy. The younger generations taste for perfume is not to my liking. I can't stand the perfume called POISON, smells too much like RAID. It just seems alot of the scents today, all are smelling similiar to one another. |

Just came on this thread, to inform lovers of You're The Fire, Skinny Dip, and Yardley's Bond Street, that there are sealed originals on Ebay *right now* of these items (the Bond Street is available in a tiny cologne and a box of bath powder!) Frankly, the powder is the thing you'll find that keeps its original scent FOREVER, with a bath oil second to that; unfortunately, the colognes and perfumes will most likely be long-turned, even if they've been kept well.
However, in perusing this thread, I see that there is someone who is offering a "sales" position, selling "European" fragrances FOR AN INVESTMENT OF ***$50***!!!!!! You DO know better than to fall for something like this; RIGHT??? For those who do not know, BEWARE, BEWARE, BEWARE, DON'T EVEN CONSIDER IT!!!!!! THIS IS A ***SCAM***!

Favorites I'd like to see come back:
Tigress by Faberge
Anne Klein II : I wore this in the mid-90's just before it was discontinued, and there was something about it that hinted at Tigress. So, of course, they discontinued it, just like Cher's Uninhibited, which had a similar scent.
Recently, I bought a box of miniature Avon scents from the late 90's, and one in particular, Millenium, had that Tigress-like smell. Researched it, and found it, too, is already gone. What's the deal?
In my mid-teens, I had a bottle of Evening Star by Blanchard. Loved it. Never found it again.
Wore Chantilly, which I could afford, but Loved Shalimar and L'Heure Blue. Even then, I had "champagne taste and beer budget". I still remember standing at the perfume counter in Remick's of Quincy, falling instantly in love with those two remarkable fragrances. The first time I smelled L'Heure Bleue, at 16, it was as if I was instantly transported to another world, with crystal chandeliers, extravagant gowns with long white gloves, high-piled, tiara'd hairdos, and handsome dance partners in tuxedos , filling a beautiful ballroom. I decided right then that if I ever had to choose between an expensive outfit and a heavenly perfume, the perfume would win, hands down! You can feel elegant in anything, as long as you have the right perfume on! |

| To "di" on 10/18/09: YES, someone (me!) actually remembers quite well, Wicker fragrance by Prince Matchabelli. Even googled for it like crazy awhile back, to no avail. Bought around '71 or '72, and the memory of it, even wearing while swimming in summer, sweetly remains. The bottle (green I believe) had a white wicker pattern on it. Came and went very quickly :(. Other finely recalled fragrances I loved using, mostly teens and twenties in '70's: Chantilly (but this one was a creamy sachet w/ applicator wand, pink bottle--absolutely yummy), Woodhue as so many have mentioned (college frat "boy" bought for my high school self; I loved it, but too hard to find afterwards), Hypnotique (amazingly clean and refreshing smell!), and really loved Cachet for awhile. Just adored Lanvin's "A Veil of Arpege"--another WONDERFUL creamy sachet fragrance (golden-hued in clear bottle) w/ applicator wand;so lovely--ya just don't find that type anymore! Intimate and Ultima, both by Revlon; felt so rich in those glorious fragrances. Nice to see a few mentions of Moonwind by Avon; I've really missed that one also. Liked Emeraude back in the day, too, but when i bought again (fresh, new bottle) a few years ago, it had become a little cheap and sickening to me. Also loved wearing, going back to junior high years (late 60's), Cotillion by Avon and Chanel No. 5--each "borrowed" from Mom's dressing table! :) |

Jovan Grass Oil- is the scent that I would like to see brought back. I used to wear this scent religiously throughout the 70s; however, it has been discontinued. I recently bought a large bottle on ebay; what used to be about 8-10 dollars, is now, only if you can find it, worth $ 125.00. If I knew then what I know now, I would be rich because I would have bought up Jovan's whole supply of this scent.
How do we bring a scent back?

To Karen who posted Nov. 2009. I think the green perfume you are referring to is Emeraud. My mother wore during that time period and I remembered by your discription.
Aside from that, I have read every post on this website and cannot believe than Lily of the Valley by Jovan hasn't been mentioned once. I don't know when it was discontinued, but my sister found a bottle at a flea market when we were teens--in the mid 90s and we fell in love with it. It was part of a floral collection by Jovan that included Night Jasmine and Honeysuckle and some others, but Lily of the Valley by Jovan would be the one for me.
If anyone could shed light on where I could find this or has any that they would be willing to part with, please post! |

HAIL TO THEE, OH, MAX FACTOR!
Tremendous news, you-all! And no one is more surprised than I am! After having had a *costly* experience (another one!) to convince me, finally, after many like it, that one can NEVER "go home", and never, NEVER find a scent that, over decades, has not turned into something horrible and noxious, in no way resembling anything it was - - - I have just received an unopened bottle of Max Factor's 'HYPNOTIQUE', in the pussycat display container - - AND IT IS INTACT!!!! I don't think it has suffered any damage with time, at all!!!
Is it because of what it was made of (pure aldehyde, perhaps?) that it has retained its character over time? Is it some fantastic anomaly? I don't know! All I can tell you is that I am being transported in time, by the fragrance of this fantastically *fresh* cologne, that has traversed the decades, since its last presence, at least thirty years ago(!!!!!!); it is bringing back an entire part of my history in a single whiff!
Oh, Max, Max; you didn't lie to us when you said that your fragrances were "eternal"! |

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
CORRECTION: I referred to this bottle of 'Hypnotique' as "cologne", and I see that it is marked as a "perfume"! I wouldn't have guessed that this was a perfume - - guess there was a range of drug-store perfumes that was sub-par to my more elevated adult expectation of a perfume - - but maybe that is an issue in finding something intact; maybe the amount of oil in perfume preserves it better than cologne, eau de toilette, or even eau de parfum (I know that my original bottle of Yves St Laurent's 'Paris', kept in the dark, in a drawer, did not do at all well, over time - - and it was 80%) - - so I feel it essential to correct and specify this detail.
I sit here, hours after this treasure has arrived, wafting in the aroma of a particularly evocative aspect of my childhood memories, still expecting it to turn on me like a bad date - - but no! Fresh as a frigging daisy! |

Ladies who are mad for Faberge's *BABE*, there are not only lots of it for sale on Ebay, right now, but there is a 4 ounce bottle at a 'buy it now' price that is really good, considering the usual prices you wind up paying in auctions for popular scents.
Lots of Max Factor *PRIMATIF* - - including bath sets with cologne and dusting powder, that someone was wanting, also on Ebay!
There is a singe *TINKERBELL* bath set.
Lots and lots of Avon *MOONWIND* (I believe someone was searching for that).
Just about anything you want on Ebay, if you look persistantly for it. If it's not there - - just keep looking for it; you'll find it.
But pay close attention to the photos; if you can see the contents of the bottle, and it's a different, *darker* color than you remember, that means that it has turned into a noxious mess you won't be happy with.
And, here's news: bought a box of vintage bath powder, thinking that surely powder would hold its scent, without turning - - and I was *wrong*! It was an expensive lesson, that I share with you all. Powder can turn, too!
So beware, and proceed with caution - - ask questions about the condition of the scent, if the seller can give you this information (and sometimes they can't, if the bottle is sealed) and try to deal with sellers who will give you a refund if the scent is bad. But do know that Ebay is the place to go to find what you're looking for. I have successfully scored three extremely vintage perfumes/colognes that were in amazingly perfect condition, and smell just wonderful!!!
Hope you all find what you're looking for! |

*REGARDING LOVE'S EAU DE LOVE*
After imagining this scent for so long, and trying, in my mind, to pin down the component scents, I realized, very recently, that the scent that set this one apart was *juniper berries*! The same thing that gives gin it's distinctive scent!! I think it was a variation on their lemon scent, with the "dry" scent of juniper berries infusing it. Makes me think of a song, called 'I Believe In You', that has the line, "Yet there's that slam- bang tang, reminiscent of gin and vermouth". Yummy. |

| This is from Avon, It is a boy wearing a bonnet and a scarf and his red bonnet was the cap(top) of the bottle. He was holding a song book, as if he was singing a Christmas Carol. This was an opaque glass. This perfume was a gift for my Mom by her bestfriend from the US. I was very young then, but it was a gorgeous smell. I think it was "Song of Paradise". Please, if anyone out there, who still has this perfume or know where to get/find it, please let me know, thank you. |

I am racking my brain trying to figure out this particular teen scent: It was out in the 90's, sold in drug stores, and it was a small, slim cloudy white glass bottle, and had a green plastic top with a curvy blue piece, almost like on a pen cap to hook on to a pocket. It also came with a small plastic stand to stand the bottle in. It was very trendy and teen oriented, but I saw it in a background shot in a favorite 90's show the other day, and I can't quite place it. It almost seems like something bonne bell would have made. Any ideas???
On the note of Bonne Bell: Nicole, i believe the "flirty" "sassy" "playful" scents you are referring to are a line from Bonne Bell in the 90's called "Bottled Emotions". Just google and you'll know those little spritzer bottles right away if they're the ones you're thinking of.
Another discontinued fragrance, "Nature" by Avon, released in Canada. I don't even know the era, but my mother wore it when i was young and I can still remember the scent. |

It's discontinued, but the replacement and very similar fragrance is Far Away; you may like it just as well or better (but caution: Avon is very, very liberal w/ these "replacement" items!). If you care about the design of the bottle, that is the figurine of the boy Christmas caroler, or as you described, Amazon and Ebay constantly have numerous Avon "vintage" "collectibles" like that.

There is an Ebay seller who, apparently, has attempted to recreate the Oh De London fragrance. The seller's ebay name is holisticsprings. Here is part of the item description for the "Yardley of London *type*" body oil.
"Delicate, feminine and powdery. This beautiful scent vanished by the early 70's, and is almost impossible to find. We managed to find an original bottle of the scent, and blended a remarkably similar version of this sweet souvenir. Our Yardley of London (type) fragrance has top notes of violet, bergamot, Russian sage and Roman chamomile. Middle notes of Chinese geranium, clove bud, rose petal, violet, lily of the valley, ylang-ylang, nutmeg and heliotrope. Dries down with base notes of Sandalwood, stryax, Virginia Cedar, vanilla bean, oakmoss and vetiver."
As I have deemed you, Eve, as the Resident Oh De London expert on this forum, I wondered if you have tried this formula, and if so, what do you think of it?
I'm tempted to buy a bottle myself, but since I really don't know how well I remember the scent of Oh De London, I'm probably not a good judge of the knock-off's similarity to the original. Maybe you could check it out...I am in awe of your "nose".

Dear Joetta,
You would not be in awe of my nose if you could *see* it! But it is definitely not just for decoration.
I have not tried this reformulation, but would be curious to try it. I've tried other "knock-offs" and found them to be singularly terrible.
But wait - - it gets better: I have secured several samples of the original - - in both its Oh! form, and as Sea Jade, the last sample of which was as fresh-smelliing as the day it was made, and guess what!!! I'm not sure I like it anymore!!!!!!!! How's that for a kick in the ass of memory?! I put it on, and was *reveling* in the absolute preservation of the original scent, when my man came into the room, and declared that it smells "like old ladies"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hours after telling him he was crazy, I realized what he meant! The association was unmistakable!!
What is it they say about being careful of what you wish for? Being an old broad already, myself, I'm not sure I'd want to smell like this!
So, I think my urge for this scent has been quenched!!! Who would have imagined it?!
Still happy I have it, but don't think I'll be spending too much more $$$ to have it back.
And I say to you all - - beware!
There's no turning back; you can never go home again. |

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
That being said - - I just purchased a bottle of the original Menley & James Love's Fresh Lemon, on Ebay.
Got a bottle about 1/6 full, recently, and I have to tell you: this scent is still very yummy. Oh, yes; there are issues with this one, too, given that I am not fourteen years old anymore. Initially, upon application, it is a *little* too sweet. But as it wears down, it is perfect. Smells like clean, young, just slightly perspiring skin (the kind that smells *good*!), on a summer day. Slightly "beachy". Evokes sun and sand, and something of clean laundry (from the days when Fab "now has the scent of *lemon*"), and a delicious, fresh breeze. So I bought some more!
This morning, I bought a bottle of original Love's *Eau de Love* (also on Ebay) - - which was the more "grown-up" scent, to begin with, and I eagerly await encountering it again for the first time in about thirty-five years(!). I recall it smelling reminiscent of gin and tonic, with a slice of lime, and it being lovely intermingled with the smell of cigarettes. Don't drink, still smoke, still love the smell of gin, quinine water, and lemons/limes. So, can't wait to see what my reaction to this one will be, now. (Hope my man doesn't tell me it smells like "an old drunk"!). Checked intactness with the seller - - whose response to me was as follows (I share it, so that you can appreciate how stricken I was by this): he had bought an old pharmacy, and found *FOURTEEN* bottles of this in the basement(!!!), that he had sold, and not gotten a complaint, so he assumes that the scent is intact (the color looked right, so I was thinking it was, but just checking)! FOURTEEN bottles!!!! I didn't ask him if he'd sold them all on Ebay, but I'm assuming he did, and that somehow, while I was concentrating on hunting other things, these offerings went right by me! (If you stop checking for a *minute*, this is what happens!). I saw his last bottle, other than this one (which was his LAST) sell, two weeks ago, for a stunning $407 for 2.5 ounces, and a few weeks before, I caught an auction for one that was getting very ugly, so I didn't even watch how it ended. I got really lucky; this auction wasn't so bad; I got 1.5 ounces for under $150. Not bad, as I see that the auction market for this one can be! |

I used their bath oil, after shave, cologne for men, and for several years purchased their products for all family members at Christmas. I bought some in Manhatten in an old building up on I believe the 6th or 8th floor. When you stepped off the elevator thats all you could smell-Lactopine.

To Dan, who loves Lactopine,
Again I'm thinking about essential perfume oils. I noticed,when I was buying the ones I purchased online, the other day, that they had the essence of *FIR NEEDLES*, for insance. They also had CEDAR. And I've bought some real SANDALWOOD essence (from the mysore sandalwood; the real deal; more expensive, but reportedly very different) that is actually from a type of *fir* tree, and has a creamy-cedar-y scent. I'm not familiar with the fragrance of Lactopine, but I notice that a few people have mentioned it - - and since I keep seeing the word "PINE"(!) in not only its name, but the name of the company that made it, I'm thinkin' it smelled like pine! So maybe if you were to explore the essential oils they have (a few companies have them in sample pipettes for $2 and $3) in the fir-tree family, you'd find what you're looking for.
I'm feeling very pro-active, these days, after having spent SO much money on "vintage" scents, and written the most convincing letters to cosmetic companies, explaining the logic of reissuing scents for which people are spending said SO much money on, for years, without results that have truly satisfied me. I'm thinking that these scents we loved were not made by *magic*; but by carefully thought-out and tested combinations of specific ingredients. So I'm thinking that it might be a good hobby to spend some of the time I spend lamenting the absence of my favorite fragrances, and searching for them in vain, and at enormous cost, in a conscientious effort at creative experimentation with the essences of the perfumer's trade!
Maybe that would be a nice hobby for you, too!! If you can't *find* Lactopine - - *make* Lactopine! |

To Angela of the patchouli oil,
You are *correct* about straight patchouli oil; it *is* horribly, smotheringly heavy. But if you were to look up the instructions on how to make patchouli oil into *perfume* or cologne, you would get a very different effect, from what I've read.
Also, from what I've read, these essential oils are not meant to be used straight, but to be mixed with either pure grain alcohol or *vodka*(!), and a "carrier" oil, that is scentless and esaily absorbed into the skin. The instructions that are available on the Google, on how to make essential fragrance oils into perfumes, give you the specific amounts; you use only drops of the essential oils.
As you can describe the scent you're wanting, so well, giving the description of the citrus undertones to it, you would be able to follow the instructions on how to make perfume, using "layers" of base, middle, and top "notes", as specified. They have various citrus oils; lemon, mandarin, orange, grapefruit, with which you could experiment, if you were of a mind to. But reading your post, it seems that you'd have a relatively easy time reproducing at very least a suggestion of the scent for which you have a yen. You'd dilute the patchouli scent to the desired lightness, and give it the bottom note that you describe (although, when you read the instructions for the perfume-making, you will find that certain elements of scent are "top", "middle", or "bottom", and they might not be in the order you think they are, by effect.
Yes, I am definitely on a mission to experiment with the oils, because I am sitting here in a cloud of the most heavenly original Menley&James Love's Fresh Lemon, that I bought on Ebay, for an insane price for the amount I bought (a little, stunningly intact, at the bottom of an almost empty bottle) *convinced*(!) that this is nothing but pure, unadulterated lemon oil in a diluted strength! I am sniffing it and sniffing it, for four days - - and I can smell that there is *nothing* else there, in this scent - - absolutely nothing! - - but pure, sweet, Meyer lemon fragrance. It smells just exactly like a freshly-cut lemon. So - - what else could that be??? It's LEMON - - mixed with alcohol, to a certain degree of dilution that makes the oil from which it was derived (which much be much stronger and more concentrated) "water down" to the accurate scent of the cut fruit.
Try thinking about just a few drops of that patchouli oil, suspended in a carrier, and diluted; it would be much different!
Cheers,
E. |

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
I would love to have the original Mary McFadden (1979) be recreated or at least snifffed and analysed by another interested perfumista.
I remember buying my original bottle in Bloomingdales NYC when it debuted. The fragrance was so unique. And when I discovered and fell in love with perfume blogs I couldn't believe no perfumistas had sniffed it.
Mary McFadden was the spark that lit my interest in perfume. It is so sad to see perfumes discontinued. There is truly no way to share the experience with anyone else, no way to really describe a lost fragrance.
Oddly, the in production fragrance that jogged my memory and made me pine away with nostalgia for MM was Comme de Garcon's Kyoto, with its strong cedar notes. I became obsessed, like the fans of 70's civet oil, and was lucky enough to find and win a bottle on ebay. But fragrance memories are funny.
I realize now, after having smelled my ebay purchase of MM, that layered on top of Kyoto's cedar is a pretty skanky yet extremely dry floral. That's what is so unusual and unsung about it. Lots of strong animalic floral notes but the sweetness has been dried out somehow. I was at a loss as to the perfume's composition. And since no one has sniffed or reviewed it, my curiosity about its components ran aground. Luckily i was able recently to find some new online scans of old newspaper blurbs and found these advertised perfume notes:
Rare jasmines and roses (4 different jasmines[some highly indolic i would say] and 5 different roses) with coriander, patchouli, indian davana, and labdanum.
What a relief! |

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
Ladies and gentlemen,
In my utter frustration with trying to recapture vintage scents in their intact form, after thirty, forty and fifty years of storage (unlikely that you will EVER find them intact, regardless of storage; there is just something that time does to a scent that compromises its stablity - - even if you find something that seems intact, you will notice a little something missing; the "zing" is usually impaired - - and at very, very best, you will find that it has no staying power - - AND LET US SAY that you find the perfect little bottle of magically perfect scent; when it's gone - - it's gone!) I have decided to embark on a project, that I share with you, in the event that you, too, might think it a good idea. I have decided to purchase and experiment with essential fragrance oils (cosmetic grade), and, for an attempted recreation of that favorite Yardley scent - - you know the one! - - the individual scents that are offered by Yardley. I am thinking that the recollection of specific components in certain scents, and/or descriptions of those scents, will render hints to the combinations that may genuinely recreate scents, if enough time and effort were to be spent on this little chemistry experiment.
As for the person who was lamenting the dearth of carnation scents - - I remind you that there are carnation essential oils offered by several companies. I suggest that if you like it so much, you treat yourself to the most expensive one you can purchase (you do get what you pay for) and play around with it, alone, or in combinations.
If you google "How to make perfume from essential oils", there are explicit instructions as to how to do this (it's very easy!). Essential oils go a LONG way; you only use a few drops of them in jojoba oil or another carrier oil that is without scent, and easily absorbed by the skin, and either vodka or pure grain alcohol. The instructions explain, specifically, the differences between base notes, middle notes, and top notes, and how to blend your essential oils as per this issue.
I, for one, have recalled the notes (scents) in my favorite perfumes/colognes. Perhaps if a number of us were to try this, we would come up with "recipes" we could share, in an effort to recreate scents, on our own. It seems to me that the companies that made these scents are not about to reissue them. Of course, there are ingredients, from the better perfumes, that can no onger be accessed, because they involved ingredients from animals that are now endangered or extinct, or that are on the FDA hit-list. But I feel quite certain that our favorite *drugstore* brands - - like Yardley Oh! de London, and Love's Fresh Lemon, and Eau de Love, did not include these more costly ingredients, and were simply mixtures of essential oils.
My first experiment will be with simple lemon oil. I have an intact portion of Menley&James Love's Fresh Lemon cologne, for comparison. I am convinced that there is nothing but pure lemon oil in it. When the lemon oil I have ordered arrives, I will work with it, and see what it renders. If it turns out as I believe it will, my next experiment will be in adding juniper berry oil to it, in an effort to produce what I remember Eau de Love as smelling like. I believe that that scent was nothing more than their basic pure lemon scent, with a kick of juniper berries, for a more ascerbic, "adult" fragrance.
As for Oh! de London - - I have read descriptions of the scent, but they don't jive with my memory of it - - which is very strong and accurate. Those descriptions never include lavender, or clover - - *not* cloves; *clover*. I remember lavender, clover, roses, perhaps a touch of violet. WE'll see about that, in time; I have to get ingredients and play around with it.
I will let you all know if I have any success with this, and will make careful notes on my "chemistry", so that if I am able to come up with anything that really hits the mark, I can share the "recipe" with you.

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
P.S.
Question for our perfumers who have commented, on this forum:
There is something that I notice in MANY of the scents of the 60s, that, perhaps, you could help identify. It is what I call a "beachy" scent - - I guess because it was also part of the scent of the suntan lotions of the 60s, as well. You could smell it when the high, top scent wore down - - and you were left with this lovely - - *beachy* scent. It was in the scent of so many products that I'm thinking that it was a very common (and inexpensive) scenting component.
Do you know what the most *common*, general scenting component, or *carrier* component, of fragrance products of the 60s was, used frequently in the lower-cost colognes, as well as Coppertone, and Sea 'N Ski suntan lotions? (Though, in terms of how costly the scents were, in which this was used, I have to say that this was the most *prominent* scent of Charles of the Ritz perfume, when it wore down - - and that wasn't a cheap perfume).
And clues would be appreciated.

NEW DISCOVERY RE. MY CONTINUING ADVENTURE WITH OH! DE LONDON~
*Fascinating* new development - - and I can't imagine what's taken me so long to realize this! In fact, I don't know which is more fascinating, the fact in itself, or that I have been so flagrantly oblivious to it!
There is a certain perfume, that, since its inception on the market, has always caught my attention - - and I always particularly liked it - - though I never obtained it for myself. Every time I caught a whiff of this scent, it would turn my head.
Now, I have gotten a sample of some Sea Jade, which, indeed *IS* Oh! de London, in another marketing inception - - but it is the identical scent! And, unlike the actual Oh! de London I have managed to secure on Ebay (at great cumulative cost, I might add), this bottle of scent is so fresh that it may as well have been made yesterday! Of course, you can imagine how thrilled I am, as well to have scored a small supply so sparklingly intact, with all the kick still to it, as to have verified the second source for the 'Oh!', in 'Sea Jade'. But something else has happened - - and this is the aspect of fascination. In catching the scent of this new, perfect sample of THE fragrance, when I wasn't really focused on it, I suddenly realized something that has, confoundingly, escaped me, all this time (just in time for my experimentation with the actual chemistry of this deal, with essential oils) about its hallmark aroma, and that other, currently-available, popular perfume that has always gotten my attention "for some reason"(!): that perfume to which I refer identifies itself with its "unique" top-note that I have always seen referred to as "grape", though, actually, it smells more like grape *VINE* than the actual fruit of the grapevine - - and THAT is the heraldic note to Oh! de London / Sea Jade - - and THAT scent has been wafting around us, all along, since the inception of that current perfume, to which I refer - - which is Christian Dior's *POISON*!!!
POISON is the perfume on the current market that smells the most and closest to Oh! de London! In fact, smelling this very intact sample of Sea Jade (Oh! de London) I realize that Poison is incredibly close, in character and elements, to this scent! How I did not realize it, all this time, I can't imagine! Poison has always *reminded* me of *something*(!), but I could never realize what it was! Now I know!!
So now, I can say to you all that THIS (Poison) is the scent you can access, that is most evocative of this lost favorite, if you're looking for something close.
But the Oh!/Sea Jade, is somewhat more complex than Poison.
And now - - I can ask those perfumers who participate in this forum, from time to time, the essential question: WHAT IS THE IDENTIFYING SCENT, THAT IS CALLED "GRAPE", THAT DISTINGUISHES 'POISON'? (This will make my chemistry adventure a lot more simple, if I can identify this). I had thought that that top-note I was recalling/smelling in denatured samples of Oh!, was *clover* - - but that was a mistake; I was confusing this grape-vine-y scent for the scent of clover. But *this* "grapevine" scent is the scent that truly identifies Oh! de London/Sea Jade, and is its top-note!
Hope the perfumers can help me out, here, with the identification of the specific element that gives Poison its most blatant character, because that is what I need to build on, in order to approach my experiment with trying to put together the recipe for a reasonable facsimile for Oh! de London.

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
For those who might be interested - - Just received my first essential oil product, from a company called Eclectic Lady. It is the *Irish Clover Oil*. Reporting that it smells, immediately, green, and spicy; almost exactly like the gestalt of the scent of a florist shop of the 60's (when they had lots of carnations around, and that super-fine, lacy kind of fern, that they added to all the flower bouquets).
As it is exposed to the air, the green, ferny scent seems to disappear, and only the spicy scent is left, by itself. Slightly earthy - - with, maybe the scent of dandilions and daisies to it - -but mostly just spicy.
It does NOT smell like any clover with which I am familiar, but then it is called *Irish* clover - - so maybe this is a type of clover found in Ireland, with which I am not familiar. I am going to have to continue trying different clover oils, until I come across the one that actually smells like clover; either white or red!
It is, actually, a very interesting scent, with, I gather, many possibilities. Haven't tried it on my skin, yet; just on a blotter - - and the scent directly from the bottle is much nicer than when it is exposed to air, on the blotter, where it expands and becomes so much more noticeably "spicy"; directly from the bottle, it smells much greener and fern-ier. Really just like the smell of a 1960s florist shop! But, not on the blotter. After exposure to air, it smells more like "spice" *candles* of the 60s (the brown ones, not the red ones)!

Hello Eve,
Thanks for replying so quickly.
I knew it was you who bought the Sea Jade from ASense4Scents....isn't "M" a nice lady? I recently bought some perfume from her and it's great. I watched a great bottle of Woodhue sell for $33 the other day, and didn't bid even though I wanted it, because I knew she was bidding on it and I didn't feel comfortable bidding against her...silly me! I know I'll see it in her listings soon for probably around $150 or so. I don't mean to be critical of dear "M"...it's her business and I think she does inspect the scents she sells and you can have a certain confidence that you aren't paying big bucks for something that smells bad. I'll just find another good deal on Woodhue some other time.
As for the Sea Jade, I'd still like to try it since it looks like I'll never find Oh! De London for a price I'm willing to pay. The Oh! bottle is pretty cool looking though....
I'm looking for some Eau De Love too. If you decide you don't want yours....well, I'm here. ;-)
Happy bidding!

This is a reply to Elaine, who wants the original Heaven Sent (and it is "Sent", not "Scent") by Helena Rubinstein. This perfume is on Ebay all the time, vintage bottles of the original fragrance. You could try to get a good bottle in an auction (see the thread on here about buying vintage perfume for help in choosing one) for maybe $25-$40 or you could go straight to an established, dependable seller who has "screened" the perfume for quality and pay more. I recommend an Ebay seller whose screen name is ASense4Scents. I've had very positive experiences buying vintage perfume from her....or you could just pick out a bottle on auction that looks good, and go for it. I saw a really great-looking Heaven Sent 2.0 oz. Spray (in box!) sell for $32 or so last week. Good Luck!

Mambo by Liz Claiborne is in a sort of zigzag bottle, but I don't think the whole bottle was orange, maybe just the cap.

If no one else bids on that, it would be a coup to get it at that price. You can see the other prices for the few Kiku colognes that are available - - expensive!

Karen - I am very sensitive to fragrance as well and Victoria's Secret "Vanilla Lace" is so light and natural and people have even said that it smells kind of like chocolate ;)
Fragrances that I wish were back on the shelves include White Lace (believe that was the name - it had such a sheer, clean scent), Luna Mystique and especially Peach Hyacinth by Victoria's Secret which had just the right sweet with floral. |

Wow, I just found this board and it's certainly brought back some memories.
Some of the scents I remember from my teens and twenties are:
Laughter - Coty I think
Blase
Green Apple
Sea jade
Geminesse
Green Glade - think this was Yardley but not sure
Masumi
Emeraude
Kiku - still have talc for this
Xanadu
Suede by Picot - this is the one I would love to smell again, very leathery
Essence Rare by Houbigant
Coty Sweet Earth - I still have the sandalwood/amber/patchouli compact with quite a lot in it and occasionally have a sniff, still smells great
Styx
Babe
Smitty
Jovan Eau Fraiche
Finesse - bought one recently from eBay, still smells like I remember
Midnight by Dorothy Gray - bought the powder puff from eBay
Topaz - Avon
Aqua Manda
Omen - Goya - anyone remember this one - weird bottle
Ah, memories.....
So glad I found this board :-) |

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
Hi Linda, thanks for the info but I live in Scotland and we don't have these shops :-( I have seen Emeraude on eBay but, like you, I think they've reformulated it.
My friend at work mentioned one she used to love - Revlon's Jontue - she bought one recently and said it just didn't smell the same.
I had a sniff of the Coty Sweet Earth compact last night and, despite it being almost 40 years old, still smells perfect. Oh, to turn back the clock.
Not sure if anyone remembers "Evette" cosmetics which you could buy in Woolworth's in the 70s - they had a few perfumes, one of which was my favourite in a bottle with a purple band (I think) - can't remember what it was called though. |

I want Tigeress by Faberge...B A C K !!!!!! Is there a reason some of these perfumes are not being reissued especially with the 70's craze & now the 80's craze is starting...you would think that the companies would be looking to make few bucks...many people would buy these scents if offered again.
I used Tigeress by Faberge for yrs. You could buy it for quite a few yrs at Zellers(in Canada), in a small bottle, during the Xmas season but alas they stopped putting it out even for Xmas. I think the last time I bought a bottle at Zellers was 1990.
Many of the perfumes can still be bought that others are writing about but I cannot remember where I have seen them all.
Question to anyone who might know...my mother wore a perfume bought in Europe, made by Dior that came in a hounds tooth black & white box. Dior still puts one out in the same box but the scent has changed. My mother passed away many yrs ago so I cannot ask her but would love to know what it was. |

Currier & Ives After shave & Cologne
I have looked far and wide to find Currier & Ives after shave lotion and cologne. I got Currier & Ives (after shave, cologne and after shave talc) for Christmas in 1965 from my sister and I used it sparingly until it was gone. The scent was unlike any other that I have experienced. It was clean and invigorating........like Old Spice, but not spicy. The manufacturer was J. D. Williams Company.
I bet if some company put out a product with that scent it would sell like hot cakes !!!
Thanks for your help |

| I have never been able to replace the scent of Golden Autumn by Prince Matchabelli. I have loved it since the first whiff at age 10. It IS autumn to me and nothing I have tested in all the years since it disappeared has ever came close to that warm feel of an autumn day. If no one will remake it, then tell us what the formula is so we can make our own. |

To Eve,
Your question about that 'grape' smell in Poison and other frags reminded me that in The Guide (by Luca Turin & Tania Sanchez), LT referred to it a few times. Upon re-reading, I came upon this in their Giorgio review: "...and methyl anthranilate (the Concord grape smell)." Hope that helps!
To Gail:
Regarding Gingham by Innoxa - I live in Australia and recently saw in one of our big department stores that Innoxa has re-released this fragrance! It still comes in a white can, but the gingham pattern is mauve instead of brown. Still smells the same (I say this because I used to wear it as a teenager). Hopefully you will eventually be able to get it online for a decent price (because over here it's not an expensive scent).

In 1992/3 I bought a perfume at my local CVS.
I forget the name.
It was light and smelled like an oil more than a spray.
It smelled of honeysuckle and bergamot, slightly sweet but green and fresh.
I think it had a name like spring breeze and I think the bottle had a bird or two flying across.
It was NOT Wind Song but it and Vanilla Fields were popular at the same time.
The perfume's color was a lovely peachy yellow with a tinge of yellowy-green.
The spray bottle was frosted but a little boring so I bought a decanter and with much difficulty removed the perfume's spray cap and spilled some in my room but it remained a lovely light scent, not overpowering or stale. |

Bath and Body Works discontinued Magnolia Blossom a few years ago. I periodically email them to beg that they put it in their "classics." I always receive a reply that they have no intention at this time to do so. I know I'm not the ONLY person who used this product!
Since having to move on from Magnolia Blossom, I've recently started using Victoria's Secret Violet and Jasmine from their "Naturally Victoria's Secret" collection. It too has now been discontinued.
Why do companies do this? Leave a product on the shelf long enough for a customer to become a regular user of that product and then swipe it away without warning or good cause. Unbelievable! |

Come on Avon, get on the ball and give your older customers what they want! |

Hi, Joyce!
There's a bottle of it at $15/ 5 days on Ebay right now (if nobody else bids on it, you could get it for that starting price). Don't know what color it's supposed to be; looks dark, though.
I've been very happy with the vintage scents I've gotten on Ebay - - but I've been careful about the color, and checking with the seller that the scent hasn't turned.
Hope you're able to get the treat that you seek! So-o-o delicious to satisfy that decade-long "jones"! |

I loved reading these message about all the old perfumes I remember from the 70's and 80's and beyond. Brings back memories of when my mom would let me have the Avon Perfume samples. :)
I have a big beef with Victorias Secret. Anyone else remember their original line of body lotions and scents?
I am talking "Her Majesty's Rose" and Heliotrope body lotion and some other scents too - I think English Lavender and Honeysuckle? - all classic English flower scents - none that "candy" stuff. There was even a frosted bottle of a light rose eau de toilette that they sold that I think was another maker but they sold it in the VS shops. I used to love going into the VS shop at the mall because it was like you were in England itself - like a romantic fantasy. Of course, they had to ruin it all by discontinuing al the good stuff and now everything smells like chemicals and it is nothing like a classic English shop. Boo, VS! I won't shop with you no more. Ugh
I remember I still had the "Her Majesty's Rose" for years after it was discontinued and got some used bottles on ebay - but haven't seen the Heliotrope. :( I never knew that I like Heliotrope until I smelled that lotion. Of course now I can get straight oils that are fine enough but it still irks me how they changed everything there. They should just change the name of the store as well - it isn't anything like the original store. So sad. |

They say (Cartier) it has not been altered, but I beg to differ with them. I know of two women plus myself who wore it exclusively for 15 years, then all of a sudden it just didn't smell as before. The color is now lighter as well. I have done some "investigating" re' this matter and have been told by 3 persons very knowledgeable in perfumes that Cartier did indeed substitute two ingredients with synthetics in 2000...about the same time I noticed the change. Have any of you experienced the difference? If so, I'd love to hear what you think......... |

Take a look on Ebay right now, if you're referring to Pagan by Lentheric (*or* Pagan by Jovan). They have one of the latter, and *many* of the former. According to the description of the scent of the one by Lentheric, I would think it *would* have a baby-powderish scent.
Sincerely hoping this is what you're looking for.

They've got what you're looking for on Ebay, too! LOTS of it! Guess Georges Marciano, in the twisted bottle you've described. They even have one of the perfumed shower gel.
I hope it was originally a very dark color - - otherwise it has very uniformly degraded over time, because *all* the bottles contain a very dark liquid.
Have a party, girlfriend!

| I know the fragrance factory is able to find some of the missing items we've listed....however, I find that the older the frangrance, the less time it holds a scent. I was all excited about the old Ambush ....ordered...sprayed.....10 minutes later I didn't even know it was on. Perhaps there is a way of holding onto the fragrance after sprayed? Now that's a good job for someone who knows chemistry!!! |

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
| Yes CC.....they do carry a lot but see posts above...EXPENSIVE and many scents do not last that long...probably due to their age no matter where they are stored. |

| Re: List All Discontinued Scents You'd Like B |
If the scent fades it has not been properly stored.
I have some Yardley "Red Roses" from, I think,the 60s.
Some Arpege from around the same time,talc & toilet water and the scent is as wonderfulas it ever was.
Ambrosia soap which I've not ever opened but use as sachet.
The original Graffiti by Capucci
A box set of Corday miniatures from earlier than that.
And original Vivara by Pucci.
If anyone i interested in purchase,please contact geekling@yahoo.com I inherited these perfumes |

I have had many older fragrances hold up fine over the years, what I have found is the EDT or EDC which were never made to last all day anyway because of the lower oil content.
Now after saying that there is the persons body chem. To consider, some may be able to wear a cologne all day others
Need the edp stronger for more lasting power, then too is our
Memeries of older fragrances, in that we really perhaps have forgotten just how long a fragrance does last. Sometimes too if were taking medication it can make the fragrance smell different. And if the fragrance is stored out of sun light and heat it will last for years, just my experience. |

Its very hard to get, how ever I found a source and have purchesed my 2nd bottle from www.thefragrancefactory.com
Very good, and I hove no problem with the fragrace lasting on me, as for price I have seen it higher elsewhere so I would say they are about right. Sadley everything cost more these days. But i suspect sometime soon they too will be out sad to say. |

I haven't seen it here in New Zealand for about 5 years. And Australia's Amazon won't send me any for some reason. Come on this it's fair.

| For many years, until it was discontinued about 40 to 50 years ago, I wore only Joyeux Etee, a product, I believe from Lanvin. How I would love to get a sniff of it again! |

Moonwind cologne by Avon (wore over 30 years) Peach Musk by Avon was next. I've give up on Avon but I would like to find something comparable to Moonwind.
Any Ideas? |

Jessica D - Just fyi that cvs or kmart apparently has "sand & sable" though I'm not sure if it's still the same formula as back when.
With regard to "VS tranquil breezes", ebay has some items albeit I've never purchased from the site. |

| FENDI, FENDI, FENDI! I've worn Fendi Eau du Parfum for many years and people always comment on it. It became my signature perfume. I simply love it. Now I have a very little amount left and I only where it for special occasions. I've given up looking for it. I desperately what it back. I hope you can help. Thanks for your efforts. |

| Hi! back in the late 80's Hang Ten sold a range of body sprays sold in South Africa. The different variants were characterised by diff colours on a white bottle, and the caps were the same colour. My favourite was the yellow variant, even though i can't remember if it had a name? it was my first ever spray i began to use as a young boy. A Girls spray named 'Blue jeans' was sold at the same time. After a few years they just disapeared from store racks. Does anyone know if they stil make sprays in America? i have tried all the sprays and colognes available in SA but none have the same smell! can anybody please help? i am desperate as i have such fond memories of that smell. . . My e-mail adress is hendrikalb@msn.com Many thanx, Adriaan |

In the 70's I used to wear a beautiful , soft fragrance called In Love by Hartnell.
So many memeories here. I also forgot about the Coty Sweet Earth solids. They were so different at that time. |

Hello Judy Barnes
You can find Mariella Burani, Fabrege scents: Tigress, Tigress musk, and Straw hat and many other original hard to find fragrances at www.thefragrancefactory.com
I have been buying the Mariella Burani from them and the body lotions which are super rare today, but just love that fragrance. |
