You find just the right scent. Wear it so much that you actually finish a few bottles of the aroma. And the next time you go to buy it- discover that it’s been discontinued.
Disaster!
Catastrophe!
“Why God? Why?” we wail into our pillow cases at night.
Okay, so maybe you aren’t as dramatic as I am sometimes with things that I grow to like and love. But regardless, if you are reading this, I am guessing that you can at least relate.
Fortunately for us in this century, there’s a great thing called Ebay where we can go and (if we are willing to pay the sometimes extravagant cost) we can find bottles of our favorite discontinued scents, colognes, and perfumes from such houses as Chanel, Yves St. Laurent, Versace, Liz Zorn, Kenzo, Tokyo Milk, Dolce & Gabana, Coty, Tommy Bahama, Guerlain, Mandy Aftel, and so many more.
I know that I’ve been buying one of my favorites off of there as I can no longer buy the cologne that I loved at department stores like Macys any longer. The scent that I loved was Tommy Bahama’s “Set Sail South Seas” which was basically Mandarin, Rum, and Violets. This cologne smelled so great and got me so many compliments.
What about you?
What’s the scent that got discontinued that you wish hadn’t?
