My previous entry of August 6th (see below) on the memory of the smell of the Toni perms still haunts me and my thought turned to bygone scents of my youth:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Evening in Paris-<\/p>\n

On Mother\u2019s Day I would buy my Mom the deluxe gift package of the perfume. It came in a lovely dark blue bottle and the had a big powder puff.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Noxzema-<\/p>\n

I remember my mother covering her face every night with it. \u201cNo more wire hangars!\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Old Spice-<\/h1>\n

My Dad\u2019s Father’s Day gift of cologne mixed with the smell of printing ink from his factory job.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ben Gay-<\/h1>\n

Oops! \u00a0I read this advertisement wrong and I rubbed it on the wrong spot once. Boy did it burn…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Jean Nate<\/h1>\n

Another gift for Mom – she we take a bath with the Nate bath oils and rub the essence oil all over her body. She did something with white wine vinegar behind closed doors, which I could never figure out. When I asked her she said she was making a salad\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Charlie-<\/h1>\n

This was my mother\u2019s other cologne. Remember Bobby Short singing the jingle?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jiffy Pop-<\/h1>\n

I love the smell of burnt popcorn in the morning.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Cod Liver Oil-<\/h1>\n

Ugh!<\/p>\n

\"\" <\/a><\/p>\n

Nine Flags-<\/h1>\n

I loved this set of men\u2019s colognes in sexy, phalic little bottles each named after a country: England, Ireland, Germany, Sweden, France, Spain, Hong Kong, Italy & Brazil. My favorite was Italy with a Sorrento Lemon aroma.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mimeograph Fluid & Airplane Glue-<\/h1>\n

Sniff……<\/p>\n
