I remember wearing several colognes in HS and shortly thereafter that I really liked (and was complimented by many a lady for them) it was between a couple scents; mainly CK One, Abercrombie Original, and Hugo Boss Original.

I’ve been feeling nostalgic and been looking for these same colognes but I suspect they’ve been given names since then and can’t seen to discern which would be the same scent that I remember.

The Abercrombie was just a small clear bottle and clear liquid (Not the bourbon colored one), the Hugo had a nylon “cap connector” so when you opened it, it would just fall to the side like a canteen, and the CK One was a opaque/cloudy, whitish bottle with clear liquid.

Anyone remember these colognes or where I would be the best place to find them?

All I’m finding, for instance; “Abercrombie original” Google only comes up with a scent called “Abercrombie Fierce” and I’m not sure if that’ll be the same?

TIA

p.s. cologne is expensive as shite and so I wanted to buy it online and don’t want to take the chance it’s wrong

CVS still sells Drakkar. Not sure why you'd waste your time with any of those other scents.

Drinking it will not keep you from getting corona.

Hugo is on Amazon

My wife bought me a knock off at Dollar Tree called "Hulk" and I wear it all the time, it's hilarious (and good)

Google says you can still buy CK1. Might just try looking them up.

There is no need for cologne. Instead, just go to your local grocery store or drug store and obtain any of the following

I've been wearing RL Polo, green bottle, since HS. Thankfully, some 37yrs later, it is still produced, and still used by me...

Cologne and Perfume mfgs converting their factories to crank out hand sanitizer in these virulent times.

The French-based perfume maker LVMH recently announced plans to convert its cosmetics factories into hand sanitizer producers while distilleries in the U.S. are repurposing alcohol to make sanitizing solutions and giving them to customers for free.

LVMH, which produces scents for companies like Christian Dior and Louis Vuitton, said in a press release Sunday that it intends on producing hand sanitizer at its factories in France for distribution across 39 hospitals in the region.

Florida Water?
Sounds like a bad, bad idea.

I appreciate all of the responses, but bone address the question in the OP.

I’ll simplify, someone tell me either the name of or where I can find the “original Abercrombie” cologne?
