Does it count? Scrubbed off immediately!

I loved this fragrance in the 80s — thought it would be both fall-appropriate and nostalgic. But it was so harsh and nasty smelling. Tried layering a berry scent over it — did NOT help. Did it get reformulated?

    Omg I just bought a 50ml of this and it’s a scrubber for me too! It’s awful. I’m not really sure where all the positive reviews are coming from. Glad it was cheap at least.

      I feel like it must have been different in the 1980s. 🤷‍♀️

      Probably. Or maybe skin chemistry is different for people who like it.

      Or, my nose sucks! Seriously, it’s not that different from the “old days.” Love it!

    I remember seeing a mini of this one around my house so many years ago and loving it as a kid haha, I’d be so curious to smell it now. Sad it was a scrubbed for you tho

    Me? I still love it! Can’t help it. Wife loves men’s on me and I like when she wears the women’s version. Two sprays max!
