Which classic scent is due for a "comeback"

[pbrmhl]

I know it can seem like a futile process, but have you tried the newest version (the ones with the paper labels and/or the shield instead of the saddle)? It smells like it used to smell to me about 20 years ago and the floral-y/musk-y basenote that was overly present over the last 15 years has disappeared, at least to my nose and chemistry. Pick up a .5 oz bottle when the holiday crap comes out at your local box-store. It's worth a shot anyway.

Thanks for the advice. I will!

Another vote for Hai Karate! I buy every decanter of Avon Tai Winds I come across.

Just as a birth year razor, Jade East is my birth year aftershave. Launched in 1964.

Skin Bracer.... and all of it's incarnations!

Dry Lime, Cooling Blue, Wild Moss, Burnished Leather, Cool Spice, Wintry Spice, etc.

Yes please!

I would like to see original Insignia being bought back, just like the one in my profile picture and maybe Burley.

Definitely Shulton Old Spice Burley - I love the stuff!

Several decades ago there was a fragrance called Currier & Ives. It may have been an Avon product, but my memory is uncertain about that. It had a delightful fragrance. My girlfriend at the time snatched my last bottle from me just before it was discontinued. Then she dumped me.

I don't miss her but I'd like to have Currier & Ives back.

One more vote for Hai Karate! I can't recall what it smelled like, but I remember my Granddaddy and my Daddy each had a bottle, and I do remember liking the smell.

Roman Brio, Trouble by Mennen, and redwood Aqua Velva.
