Perfume you wore in your younger years..

[glamslam]

Hmmm this thread was before I joined! I gotta put my 2 cents in! I never got into Electric Youth, but I did like Debbie Gibson. Sounds like I missed the boat on that one!

• I didn't wear Loves Baby Soft but I did wear Heaven Sent! Very similar powdery smell! (This was more Jr. High than High school)
• I loved Primo! (fake Giorgio) If you didn't reek of this scent in my high school, you were beyond uncool. It was THE scent.
• Also ultra cool were Poison, Red, Obsession and Tiffany.
• Cheaper, drugstore perfumes that I liked were Lady Stetson, Intimate Musk, and Exclamation.
• Oh, I wore this oriental one for quite a while called...I can't remember! It had 2 words that were similar. Xia Xiang...something like that? I don't think it's around anymore!
• For guys, it was essential to douse themselves in Polo, Obsession, Brut, Stetson, or Drakkar Noir! Yikes...!

I wore JeanNate, Avon's Soft Musk and then Estee by Estee Lauder and Poison my fav for a long time. Estee was kinda strong. Didn't need much. Today I wouldn't use any of them! Maybe Poison. I use Estee Lauder's "Spellbound" and Lancome's "Tresor". If I want a light scent I tend to use Victoria Secrets Body Sprays.

What perfumes do you remember wearing in the old days, your youth, etc., or way back when?

Wow! I remember Sweet Honesty! I forgot that I use to use this one.

Jean Nate, Soft Musk from Avon, Estee by Estee Lauder, Poison for a long time my fav.

OOps - sorry - I started a thread similar to this because I didn't notice this one earlier.

 

[Amethyst]

Sorry ladies - I didn't realize a similar topic was started earlier.

OMG, I remember all those Love's Baby Soft ads and stuff in magazines. I became convinced that if I wore it, boys would follow me around, sniffing me. I remember one thing where a guy said he loved the smell and loved when his girlfriend wore his jacket and left the scent on it. LOL! Me = marketer's dream!

I also wore Sunflowers and Tresor. I loved those so much!

I thought the Tresor bottle was just the most sophisticated thing.

Imma dork!

Back in the day I wore Baby Soft and Undeniable (by Avon). I wouldn't wear either now, as I love what I currently am wearing - Mania by Giorgio Armani.

 

[meg1959]

Cachet...waves to Kim!

Charlie

Love's Baby Soft, and I think they had a lemon scented version too

Blue Jeans

a solid perfume, I think it was "Grass," smelled like newly-mown hay if I remember correctly

a green apple scent that came in an apple shaped bottle, perfume was acid green....took hours to wear off

i never really wore perfumre, i always wore like B&B spray or vickie's spray stuff with matching lotions. hehe

 

[Sofia]

I've never heard of 75% of these perfumes. When I first started wearing perfume I was in highschool, they were Eternity and Tommy Girl (both of which I still wear).

 

[K*O*]

As a teenager way back when,

I always wore ZEN by Shieshedo - I loved it., it came in a black bottle with gold leafing on it - Can't find it any more today (maybe on Ebay, I guess) They have a "new" ZEN which I have, & its nice too, but nothing like the original...I hate when you find something you really love, & it gets discontinued !!! That's the story of my Life!!!!

I also liked Lady Stetson, and I can remember when my friend and I were all about Love's Baby Soft, White Musk and, of course, Exclamation! LOL

What did you wear, and do you like it now?

 

[elljmz]

As a freshman in highschool I wore Georgio. As a sophmore it was some type of Liz Claiborne (the one in the yellow triangle). Then for the rest of highschool it was EL Beautiful.

Up until a few yeas ago I wore Amarige de Givenchy. I'll tell you what!- I never got so many compliments from men and women! Don't know why I switched. I guess I just got sick of it. Now when I wear perfume its either Ralph Lauren Romance or Fresh Sugar ( which I love).

 

[Never2muchMU]

I wore Love's Baby Soft and Jean Nate

Now I wear so many different perfumes, but the two favs are: Cartier and Dior Pure Poison ..... can you say 'yummy'?!!!
