So my girlfriend who is 9 years younger than me was asking me what kind of colognes I used to wear when I was a teenager and when I listed them off she had only heard of maybe one or two of them. LOL

So how many of you remember these gems?

1. Old Spice (in the ceramic white bottle)

2. Paco Raban

3. Pierre Cardin (in the clear glass bottle with the dome shaped top

4. Brut (in the plastic green bottle)

English leather in the '60s. They had it all, soap, cologne, aftershave.... and my girlfriend used Eau de Love, which I can still smell on some of her old letters. I still occasionally use some EL or an ancient bottle of Old Spice that was my Dad's.

Oh yeah, I remember getting many of those gift sets when I was a kid which had the bottle of cologne and the infamous soap on a rope in some cheap box with the see-through plastic cover. biggrin

Old Spice FTW.

"I don't always wear after shave, but when I do it's Old Spice."

(Mixing commercials there)

My wife thinks it's hilarious that the only aftershave that smells good on me is also one of the cheapest.
