"Does anyone remember Evening in Paris?

LOL! Oh, what memories that brings back! Yes, I remember "Evening in Paris". To me, as a little girl, I thought it had the most beautiful blue bottle - nevermind that the stuff smelled absolutely horrible. I thought it was a great gift....because I could afford it (with a little help from my dad). My mom got several bottles from me over the years, LOL, and she always acted thrilled.

I also remember the lunch counter at Woolworths. It was such a treat when Mom and I would go and have an ice cream sundae. It was a REALLY big deal if we actually had lunch there! T'was a simpler time then. I was on the top of the world if I left Woolworths with a nickle roll of Necco Wafers. :-)

Oh yes, all the female relative at one time or another got Evening in Paris or dusting powder by Coty. On my allowance it was just about all that I could afford.
