Discontinued fragrances!

[lalawalkonby]

Lighthearted, but in the past month I have discovered 2 of my favourite fragrances have been discontinued! One a perfume, one a home fragrance:
Jo Malone Orris & Sandalwood
Kew Gardens Damson & Jasmine
I'm so sad as both fragrances have strong associations for me and smell is my most powerful sense.
Anyone else had any fragrances discontinued they wish weren't?

Midnight poison, and diesel zero plus feminine

Chloe Love 😭

A Next one, about 1995 ish, I still have the empty bottle and have a sniff every now and then. Reminiscent of my teenage years and a party we still talk about years later

Can you still get 'Tweed' my late Mums favourite, would love a sentimental sniff 😢

Stilla Crème bouquet
Absolutely loved this it smelt like talcum powder

Just a note about Marc Jacobs Decadence coming back. I got a new bottle for my birthday this year and was absolutely over the moon until I tried it and it smells completely different to how it was and now gives me a headache. Gutted

Oh god hope not! Got a new bottle at Christmas and haven't opened it yet!

Really?!

Marks and Spencer Isis (understandably rebranded to Aqua) has gone.

Ralph Lauren Blue (woman's version)

Air de Samsara by Guerlain

Also would like to add my teenage go to; Impulse On Fire (electric blue can I seem to recall) and a more recent Superdrug bodyspray called Flirty of all things but I always got compliments whenever I'd used it, they changed something in it which slightly altered the fragrance and weakened it's longevity (it was like a perfume before) and then discontinued.

I search in vain to find a bodyspray now, everything I find now seems very sickly sweet or too floral for me.

Also echo all the OPs mentioning Body Shop favourites like White Musk and Dewberry but also like to add in Fuzzy Peach and their Neroli Jasmine

I can’t remember what they were called but I have a memory of savers doing some body sprays with cartoon girls on them a bit like bratz dolls and there was one that smelt like lemonade. I used to love it so much as a kid and wish I could try it again

@Treesinmygarden
Compared to the bottle I have, though empty, still smells of the original, I just can't reconcile with it being the same fragrance. My OH agrees.
They did it with Samsara too, though I still love it, it's not a patch on the original.

It may be that you get on with it though when you wear it.

Baroque by Yardley (later bought by Lentheric after Yardley went bust)

Clinique Simply.

There is a website called Perfume Parlour (and probably others) that do dupes of perfumes, and often of discontinued ones.

The original Body shop white musk from the 80s
The scent they market today as White musk is an imposter!

Nina Ricci Les Belles

Another one here for Gucci Envy

Van Cleef signature perfume in the diamond shaped bottle. Stole my mum's when I was about 15, had several bottles over the next 30 years and I can't find it anymore. It made me feel so happy, a small bit lasted ages.

Prada. D’iris, thankfully I wouldn’t want to pay that much for perfume now anyway.

@VillanellesCoat 😊

Versace White Jeans.

Absolutely loved it as a teenager - wore it as an older teen, possibly early 20’s, when I met DH and he always said it reminded him of me.

I even contacted Versace but nope! It’s long gone!!

Feu D'Issey- not the light one the real one. It was my going out scent, damn them for ending it

Snap! It's the scent of my 20s!
@dearanon I've discovered that a perfume called Etra Etro by Etro is a really close match, hope that's helpful

Not discontinued but getting difficult to get - O by Lancôme. I've adored it since I turned 18.
