Hiya,
I recently ran across something I hadn't seen before, and had to make the purchase. I'm now the proud owner of three NOS Old Spice deodorant sticks in various flavors. I'd guess these were made in the mid to late 1980s.
The scent's strong on em all, so that part's good. Heh, no clue if I'll ever actually use one of the sticks, but you never know. It is kind of a kick sniffing those old fragrances which are still very evident after 25 years or so.
Maybe some of you will find the pics amusing,
Martin
Heh, I buy the goofiest stuff sometimes.

I can vaguely remember the seeing the regular and the lime on the store shelves but the fresh is anew one. The lime was usually part of a gift set and I rarely saw it marketed individually.
Kind regards,
Mark

I already knew I was 'getting old', and thanks for the reinforcement....heh. You're right about what's amusing these days, and the 'amusing'in my previous post ' would be a quaint old geezerly grampa sorta thing. Heh, kind of a narrow market here maybe.
Thanks for the thoughts,
Martin

5 Day deodorant pads. Yep! If I recall, the TV commercials showed a young lady post shower with the towels all wrapped and tucked, applying the only deodorant she was going to need for the next several days in a row. Just apply and toss! And take some extras with you, just in case.
Back to the OS Deodorants, Nice Find! I am a big fan of the vintage Old Spice products. Some of which are not easy to find now.

They still sell the original stick here in some stores. It is very strongly scented and burns my armpits something rotten.
