Soft Musk Avon 1981 Cologne

... Avon was much more present than it is today. A colleague at my training company always brought along those colorful brochures, which became my reading material during lunch breaks. It was always exciting to see what kind of original bottles and jars the same products were packaged in and how wide the price ranges were between the original prices and the current special offers.
I don't even know if those colorful brochures still exist today, but back then I found them very interesting, and if I liked an offer, I would gladly order something.
I used to have Soft Musk as well and didn't think it was that bad. Some time ago, when I could get a set of EdT and deodorant for little money, I ordered it for my daughter because she found the descriptions quite appealing.
As soon as it arrived, my daughter sniffed it and had to realize that it wasn't really her thing - I could have told her that right away, but no one believes me.
Well, now I have a set sitting here that will probably never be used up.
Now I have a dear friend who wants to smell this fragrance too, so this morning I filled a little portion for her. I hope she enjoys it.
And since such filling actions never go without a mess, I now naturally have "Soft Musk" on my hands and T-shirt. I've already washed my hands; the T-shirt will go in the laundry later.
My hands still smell, and hopefully, it will come out of the T-shirt.
There isn't much to say about the fragrance itself - to me, it smells like a bygone era.
More specifically - like the hairspray that was sprayed in liters during that time.
And the scent lasts - just like the hairspray from that time - in any weather.
Somehow synthetic - it might be the aldehydes, but I've smelled less piercing ones. I haven't detected any woods, and musk is also forced in.
It's not for me, and my daughter doesn't like it either.
From now on, it can be found in the souk.
