I'm old. I remember all of them. But no one mentioned 007. My brother used to wear it (lots of it) when he was trolling for girls. He'd walk past my father to go out on the town and my father would say, "You smell like a pimp."

How about a thread for us "girls" of the dimestore perfumes we used to wear?
