Apologies if already posted, but remembering a 90s nostalgia chat and impulse o2 being mentioned, they've brought it back out and available in Savers!

Omg!!! I need some!!!

BeverleyMacker · 28/07/2023 18:11

I wish they'd bring back Captivation in the pink can circa 1990. I loved it 😔

IForgotOurSong · 28/07/2023 18:14

Ooh, lovely, I used to love Zen, it was really nice and fresh.

Idratherbepaddleboarding · 28/07/2023 18:15

Of course I do! I need to get some of that for the nostalgia.

Dabralor · 28/07/2023 18:15

Absolute Goals in about 1996. Thought it was the height of grown up chic!

Drywhitefruitycidergin · 28/07/2023 18:15

Loved it - might have to buy the 12 year old some to stop her stealing my perfume!

Iris1976 · 28/07/2023 18:17

Omg this was my favourite 😍😍

PetitPorpoise · 28/07/2023 18:22

Impulse Temptation (the red one) was my absolute favourite. I seem to remember that there was a limited edition Spice Girls one that I really liked as well

GlobetrottingPercy · 28/07/2023 18:26

I personally also loved the spice girls one!

BelindaBears · 28/07/2023 18:28

I LOVED this. Definitely have to get some for nostalgia!

OliveHenry · 28/07/2023 18:29

Hope it smells the same!

Twitch45 · 28/07/2023 18:29

I loved Impulse Free Spirit. Made me feel so grown up!

SirSamVimesCityWatch · 28/07/2023 18:35

What were the vanilla one(s?) called?

Mine too. Not sure I'd go back to it if they reintroduced it though. I thought it was the height of sophistication in my teens but really this stuff is just tantamount to dousing yourself in air freshener Grin

asecretslob · 28/07/2023 18:37

@SirSamVimesCityWatch vanilla kisses was one
I miss that
I miss the 90s

I very excitedly went into town last week just to get some of this (which made me feel like I was 14 in itself, because I can't remember the last time I was excited to go to town). Bad news guys - either it doesn't smell quite the same, or else it smells exactly the same but it's kinda gross if you're not actually 14 anymore.....

If you can't taste it you've not used enough 🤣🤣🤣

Toottooot · 28/07/2023 18:42

Does it still smell the same though..? Although a an adult I bet it’s awful!

MichelleScarn · 28/07/2023 18:44

I had that for school then the similarly acid bright coloured Les Belles De Ricci for 'out out' highly cool to 16 yo me out clubbing with fake Id, would love this but is now £90 a bottle!

These were great used them to cover up the cig smoke of the ciggy I'd have at break. Didn't cover up anything just added another layer odour.

Would love to get my hands on a bottle of Exclamation! though

@Twitch45

Vanilla kisses
Vanilla delight
Vanilla secrets

They were my absolute favorite 😍

Allhailkingcharlie · 28/07/2023 18:51

I loved the spice girls impulse!

AlfietheSchnauzer · 28/07/2023 18:52

I wish they'd bring the Spice Girls one back

whichdirection · 28/07/2023 18:52

Used to love o2! And Impulse Vanilla Kisses I think it was called.
