I buy various discontinued lines regularly. Sure I have probably had 1 or 2 knockoff bottles but the rest has been legit in my experience. How are these old scents still out there? Does the manufacturer make a billion bottles during production or do they keep making and selling even if ‘officially’ canceled?

Am I the only one just wearing deodorant these days, I mean I have a bottle of aqua di gio you can have if you want.

Nah. The only one I currently wear though that hasn’t been discontinued is Dior Homme.

I am intrigued by Armani Acqua Di Gio Absolu, and will probably pick up a bottle.

Bucking convention I normally wear a spring aqua type scent year round mainly because so many women like it.

If you get lots of compliments then do your thing.....Chanel Platinum and Mont Blanc are like catnip to me.

One of my favorites, don’t know why they phased it out.

I have had a one ounce bottle of Drakkar for about 8 years, but every time I wear it, some random chick comments about how good I smell. It’s the only cologne I’ve worn since high school in the 80’s.

I've got two bottles left. $250 now on Amazon for one bottle and that is a 1.7 oz.

Anyone ever hear of Jovani Sport Scent? My brother had that stuff when I was a kid (78ish) and That was the best smelling cologne in the world. Dad always had English Leather in his cabinet. Don’t think he ever wore it, tho

This is the best cologne ever. So glad I can still find it on shelves at Walgreens.

What dis?


You don’t know about The Dirty Chicken?

It’s a warehouse of discontinued items sold at a progressively discounted price. The longer an item sits on a shelf, the cheaper it gets.

I found a small hand pulled mini bike on the shelves for $200. I built it with my son and we rode it around for all summer and then sold it on Craigslist for $350.

I bought a sweet Nike golf shirt for $5. It had a Stephen F. Austin small logo on it. I wear it and get questions about the school all the time.

You got to find yourself a local dirt cheap. It’s like white trash treasure hunting. (It’s what my wife calls it)
