PIP the perfume/cologne/bodysplash that reminds you of your childhood/teenage years.
I had Jean Nate body splash, but the cologne that really reminds me of my tweens are:
Blue Jeans Cologne:

and Loves Baby Soft (I think every girl has had this at some point):

I even had this t-shirt (which my mom hated because I was like 10 yrs old):

Re: IHO of Jean Nate
+1 for Luv's Babysoft. That was all over the 6th grade.
And in high school:
Baby Soft, the Sunflowers spray, and
I CAN'T SEEM TO FORGET YOU
YOUR WINDSONG STAYS ON MY MIIIIIND
Picture Joe from Family Guy bellowing that song at the top of his lungs.
+1 for Love's Baby Soft and Navy
And sadly, I still wear Sunflowers. It's my favorite.
Yessssss I asked for this every Christmas in high school!
I was also obsessed with my grandmother's White Shoulders.
Oh, and the Designer Imposters of Giorgio - Primo baby!
Can't PIP at work, but all the cool guys wore Cool Water cologne in my day.
And now of course I have a Snoop Doggy Dogg song stuck in my head.
ETA: I never wore perfume, but I did have a thing for Bath & Body Works body sprays. Still do, actually.
My DS wears Cool Water. LOL...I hope I didn't turn him into a dork by buying that for him. He actually really likes it. It isn't too strong and I think it smells clean and classic.
My H still wears it, too. I like Cool Water, actually. It reminds me of the good ol' days.
Holy crap- memories!
You know how they say a flood of memories can be brought back with a scent? Well, a flood of memories came back with the visual of the scent!
I had the baby soft and exclamation. I forgot all about the Exclamation, but my eyes widened when I saw it.
I wish Drakkar was still popular and that MH liked cologne.
I'm pretty sure I had all the Gap scents - Grass and Om were my favorites. I'm still a total perfume wh0re.
ETA: I used to beg my mom for Tresor. Never got it, but I would spray myself down whenever I went to the mall.
I can bring home the bacon...
I wore Tresor in my early to mid 20's. Pregnancy made me gag when I smelled it and I've never worn it or smelled it since. I also wore Chloe. Pregnancy wrecked that one for me too.
This reminds me of the 70's. My mom had a bottle of this sitting on her dresser but she never wore it.
I remember that commercial and now I have that song in my head with the word Enjoli whispered at the end. LOL
Those were the days.
Love's Baby Soft- absolutely!
And the Calgon body sprays... but SPECIFICALLY in Tahitian Ginger (I have a bottle in my linen closet right now)
I also think about Cool Water and CK One (when I was a bit older)
