Nice find. Have NEVER seen Brisk Spice for sale here in Oz.
Vintage Avon find
- Thread starter HoosierTrooper
- Start date
Recently got Lo-Haiku, the PAA knockoff of Hai Karate.
If it's accurate - and their stuff usually is - it is very close to Avon Tai Winds.
So, anybody: is Tai Winds a clone/copy/tribute of Hai Karate?
Obviously, they all smell great!

I always thought it was Hai Karate inspired.

I smell like a Christmas pudding
I find Tai Winds very similar to both Hai Karate and Jade East, both of which I own and like a lot. Tai Winds is usually much cheaper, but in my opinion is inferior to the other two.

Put on some Brisk Spice yesterday around noon. Just got a slight wiff off of my hand at 8:30 am. Man that vintage stuff lasts!
I found these recently and really liked them thought they would make a good addition to the rest of my collection
I've never seen that before, is that a sample set?
They are the saleswoman sample. That they would carry to sell the product my wife also bought 2-3 sets like this of women’s scents at the same antiques store I had not smelled the blue blazer till I got these
Unfortunately there’s only a few drops left. The store owner said she typically dumps them (she had several diff bottles) out so nobody gets sick from them. Just a CYA scenario I think.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I dump the original container after I decant it into a bottle I like better!
That is SO sad. Old Avon is some great stuff.
I only have this one and Pot Belly Stove, both basically empty but there’s still enough drops in each to get a whiff of the scents. I find them both pleasing. Smooth, not overbearing. They remind me of what adults wore when I was a kid
Excellent scent descriptions! This WAS the smell of "family and friends get togethers" when I was a wee lad!
Found another Brisk Spice! 5 ounce train for $2.
Still on my wish list, lol. Can't believe I've never found one in the wild.
Found this on eBay but for sale locally. Almost full.

I’m not a fan

It does. Not only that but I prefer it to Old Spice
I agree, ShaveFan. My spice preference of those I have in descending order is Avon Brisk Spice, Avon Spicy, Vi-Jon Spice, and Vintage Old Spice.
IIRC, this is what I found in my grandparents' house when I was a boy.
