How do you find the name of an old perfume?
Is there a way of looking up old perfumes by the way the bottle looked? I had a perfume that had a pink and black bottle and I can't for the life of me remember what it was called. It is driving me crazy. It wasn't a real perfume but probably an eau de toilette that I think I got from CVS at the mall! Any help is appreciated.

Can you describe it in more detail? How old was it~ a very long time ago, or within a shorter period of time? Was it affiliated with a celebrity? More details, please... and I can probably help you figure it out.  |

Thanks Holly! I will look through that site to see if I can spot it, but I'll give you info here, too. I am guessing I had this eau de toilette in the early/mid 90s. It had nothing to do with a celebrity. The bottle was an oval shape, black on the top half (the cap) and pink on the bottom half. The line separating the cap was one big swirl/wave. ~ like that. I remember the smell reminded me of pepper, as weird as that sounds for a perfume. It is similar to Avon's new 50s Glam, which is described as a combination of apple, persimmon, gardenia, rose, musk, moss, and vetiver. I would love to find out what this is. Thanks again.

Could it have been an Avon fragrance? The bottle for Far Away Paradise is pink with a black cap. If not, I'll still keep my eyes open for you ... |

It could have been Avon but I am pretty sure it was from CVS at our mall. It's not Far Away Paradise--I looked at the pictures but the bottle of the one I'm looking for is oval shaped, equally pink and black, and taller than the FAP one looks. Thank you so much for looking!
