I loved that bottle! My high school friend wore that scent (she obviously had sophisticated taste for a teenager!) Or maybe she wore it when she was in university. Regardless, it’s a beautiful scent and a lovely bottle.

What powerhouse perfume from the 80's would you wear today?
- Thread starter Doribelle
- Start date
Dior Poison! I still wear it and it smells just so amazing! Obviously reformulated since then but I still really love it!
I looooved my Electric Youth perfume (and that Debbie Gibson cassette Tate lol)! I mean, I was basically a child back then and can’t even remember what happened to my old bottle (which is rare because as a 4th-5th grader I know I didn’t use it up, and why would I throw that awesome bottle away?). They’re now going for ton$ on resale sites so I probably will never be able to remember the scent, ha.My people.
I'd wear Exclamation and Electric Youth (by Debbie Gibson), even if only for nostalgia's sake.
I was never an exclamation! girl, but my sister & friends all had that bottle! I was more of a NaVy wearer... anyone remember that one? Also Vanilla Fields was a lighter scent I remember wearing in my (much) younger days before B&BW became popular with us kids/pre-teens Not sure if these two would count as “powerhouses” but I’d definitely give them a try for nostalgia purposes!
I still have the crystal bottle with the dove on it, sitting on a shelf, my first piece of Lalique too.
Ok, pre-80's and dating myself but I loved Heaven Scent! Still remember the tune that played during the commercials.
And Jean Nate bath oil. The bathroom would be hot and steamy with Jean Nate on Saturday nights because I was at home with no date!

My mom has the gigantic display bottle which is a real Lalique bottle filled with perfume. She got it in Paris and had it shipped back home to the States. It probably contains at least a gallon of L'Air du Temps in it.
I wore drugstore fragrances back then. I remember wearing Malibu Musk, and Night Musk. My mom also wore Night Musk. I wish they still made that stuff. It smelled amazing.
Still wearing vintage Opium and Magnetic by Gabriela Sabatini.
I would love to get some cheapies by Ellen Betrix back: Trance and there was a series dancing, feeling etc. I had one of these and wolud love to smell it again.

My mom wore Lauren by Ralph Lauren. It smelled heavenly on her....
I remember my mom buying me the Gloria Vanderbilt shampoo to go with the perfume for a school dance.
