That "expensive soap" phase, but without anything that comes off as standard sneezy white musk. Not sexy, but not a little girl. And very pretty.Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06115821731964909442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-53444155872363778992010-10-19T19:20:30.097-04:002010-10-19T19:20:30.097-04:00she looks like a diorissimo or l'air du temps ...she looks like a diorissimo or l'air du temps woman, but i'll go with something much, much sexier, revlon intimate. <br /><br />minetteAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-61956564663284714032010-10-19T13:44:43.880-04:002010-10-19T13:44:43.880-04:00I think classic daily but something a little sassi...I think classic daily but something a little sassier on date nights.

You (almost) cut me to the quick about June Cleaver not wearing Arpege!<br /><br /><br />I could see it as a "special occasion" scent, not as an "everyday" one, but, my Mother wore Arpege, even after Dad died. Mostly on vacations and Sundays, however.<br /><br /><br />Mothers are generally women first.<br /><br /><br />Everyday? Something brisk and spicy, maybe Coty L'Origan, or Avon Persian Wood.<br /><br /><br />Rest easily, dear Barbara Billingsley.<br /><br /><br />Lawrence in OhioAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-862142729210998012010-10-19T11:21:47.963-04:002010-10-19T11:21:47.963-04:00There are some ordinary perfumes from back then th...There are some ordinary perfumes from back then that no one ever mentions. My aunt wore Blue Grass, which I can imagine on June. My mother wore Bond Street by Yardley, which was also more "clean" and less "sultry." Then there was the perfume they gave me when I was a child: Friendship Garden. I'm almost afraid to smell these again, but I can kind of conjure up Blue Grass for some reason. <br /><br />Another one for June might be Muguet de Bois, the lily of the valley fragrance from Coty, I think.Nina Zolotowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11895950786842606633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-9972970200996728052010-10-19T10:02:43.301-04:002010-10-19T10:02:43.301-04:00I wonder the same thing about old movie/TV stars. ...I wonder the same thing about old movie/TV stars. Since I got sucked into the world of perfume I'm always looking out for the scene of a vanity or bathroom counter so I can see what bottles the props department have put out. Lucy always seemed to have DANA bottles on her bedroom dresser. Was she more Tabu or 20 Carats? And I've seen several episodes of Bewitched where she also has a DANA bottle on her dresser. But my favorite is the one where I caught a glimpse of a huge bottle of Crepe de Chine. Yea, I can see Samantha wearing that. I'm thinking June may have also had a DANA bottle or I can even see a little blue Evening in Paris bottle sitting next to her cold cream. I REALLY like the image of Bandit, the teddy and a happy Wally!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-24847335737823330452010-10-19T09:47:31.902-04:002010-10-19T09:47:31.902-04:00I actually did a blog posting about June awhile ba...I actually did a blog posting about June awhile back...http://bloodyfrida.blogspot.com/2010/07/unlocking-mystery-joint-blog-project.htmlCarolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06394558427981331885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-3279838531293997732010-10-19T09:45:04.805-04:002010-10-19T09:45:04.805-04:00Chantilly?Chantilly?kathleennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-87893631874319265852010-10-19T09:36:07.022-04:002010-10-19T09:36:07.022-04:00I'm thinking for everyday wear she might have ...I'm thinking for everyday wear she might have dabbed a bit of vanilla extract behind her ears (hee!).

Anywho I found myself in a furry cloud like a dark green boa , towards the 4th or 5th hour of wearing, it almost became too much for me, I smelled so good but so rich , so of a era that I wish I belonged....but didn't.Tamara*Jnoreply@blogger.com
