This week on allbeauty.com we're talking favourite retro scents. We asked the allbeautyHQ team to tell us theirs and the stories behind them....
 |
Claire - Head of Social Media "My Mother was a beauty consultant for Chanel, I wore bottles of Chanel No. 19 to school as a teenager - I was very spoilt!! I also had the gorgeous Chanel After Bath Powder that went with it. It came in a huge container and lasted months." |
 |
Peter - Lead Creative "Back in ‘82 I recall getting ready for a first date. I spotted Dad's aftershave (Drakkar Noir) in the bathroom cabinet and decided to borrow it. Problem was, I splashed it everywhere then couldn’t wash off the scent! The smell was all over me - very embarrassing!" |
 |
Fi - Head of Brand "Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche really takes me back to my childhood. It was a permanent fixture on my Mum’s dressing table, in those glamorous times of big hair & shoulder pads!" |
 |
Ryan - Digital Designer "I wore Lacoste Pour Homme every day in my first year at Uni (2002/3) - I think someone gave it to me as a going away gift. It brings back great memories whenever I walk by someone wearing it (not all of them ones I can share!)" |
Tell us your favourite retro scents and why you love them - you can tweet us @allbeautynews or leave us a comment below.
