Perfume, Again

I just found a new site. Well, new to me, anyway. It's called perfumebay.com. I specifically wanted not only older fragrances but also travel size.

I found Niki de Saint Phalle (old), Alfred Sung (not so old), and Norell (very old). There's lots of others, too.

I found the prices to be reasonable for the ones I wanted, but there were some high prices, as well.

Ladies, i would be a little weary of a web site that sells perfume that is not manufactured anymore. Perfume can go bad, even rancid after a certain period of time.

Remember New West, The best summer cologne ever made, & discontinued many moons ago..well, I could NOT stop myself...I bought it from a private party online.The minute I sprayed it, I knew it went rancid...No matter, that I knew, I did it anyway & was hoping........and

To buy a fragrance still manufacured is fine, but let my booo boo be your red flag...btw I got my $ back...

And I was so hoping it was true.

There was an perfume that I use to buy called Blue Waltz....loved it..I was a young young girl at the time...it was sold at Woolworths (anyone still remember that store?) and, wow!! I could afford it.

I've been looking for an old bottle for years....even if the perfume is bad, I don't care...I would just like to have the bottle for the memories!!!

Fieldmouse - googled "blue waltz perfume" and got lots of hits. There are 5 bottles for sale on ebay

and several others through private vendors. I had forgotten about Blue Waltz until I saw the bottle. Ah, Woolworth's, who could forget them? Remember Morgan and Lidsey's Five and Dime, too? It was closer to our house, so I haunted it most often.
