TB---I used to get my wife something that smelled like Lily-of-the-
Valley.I don't remember the brand,but it was fairly inexpensive.I
don't like a Heavy smell+ L-O-V is one of my favorites.I always tell
her to say inexpensive,instead of cheap.It sounds much better!

The smell I remember most was my Papaw's pipe smoke.
It had kind of an apple smell to itand I used to love it. Every time I smell pipe smoke I think about him.

Geeeez smells, I remember Mom wearing Channel #5 and Dad's Old Spice and on sunday mornings lining up to get my hair combed and that damn Vitalis. LOL Of course at 8 years old it was cool cuz Dad did it.

My dad has always wore Old Spice. He has a collection of some type of Avon stuff all over his room, must be something one of his wives bought him once. He's never wore it, I opened one once, and now I know why!

As my father passed away when I was only 8, I have very few strong memories of him. One is the Old Spice he used to wear. I still love the smell of it.

My mother had a few she liked so I can't really choose one that reminds me of her. She had some Chanel No. 5 she wore on "special occasions", and she also liked Avon's Topaze. I think a lot of ladies of her era wore Topaze, so much so that I used to refer to it as "Old Lady perfume." It was a real reality check when I found myself wearing it not long ago. I just told myself I like it because it reminds me of my mother. (I'm not old......no I'm not.........no way.......uh uh.....not me! *LOL*)
