I found a couple of boxes loaded with Avon decanters totaling about 12 bucks. Total of 53 containers, 21 were full of Aftershave, 3 with scalp conditioner, 2 with electric pre-shave, and one with talc. Here's some of the highlights. A decent selection from the chess series. Mostly Wild Country, some Deep Woods and one Olander. Two River Boats, one Wild Country and one Spicy. Some wild life shapes. More of the same scents, but the quail is "Blend 7", and the duck is Tai Winds. Some Brisk Spice and to go with the wild life Some other interesting designs, the tall silver one is filled with Excalibur. That's one I don't hear mentioned much. I also found this non-Avon bottle in the mix. Empty now, but not for long. I think I'll use it for the dollar store Old Spice AS.

I like the chess set decanters! The chess pieces are nice. The boxes had a few more that were empty.

Awesome Avon score, Andy! The Tai Winds, Blend 7 and Excalibur are great scents.

That's a nice collection. I grabbed a box of Avon stuff from an estate sale but it was mostly junk. I got the typical race car and stanley steamer. In one fell swoop, it seems you have a wide array of things.

YOWSER!!! Now what ya gotta do is mix it all up in one big vat and send us all a sampler!!!! ;D It would be a plucky scent. Bold, yet sensitive. Intrusive while remaining polite. I'll call it, "One of Everything"!

I'M IN!!! But seriously! ;D Talking about scents - I am in Seattle right now on some holiday time and have been cruising all the drug stores looking for shave kit. There was a bottle of Pinauds Lilac Vegetal. Always dieing to try the stuff. I feel badly, , but I cracked the bottle cap a tad and tried out the scent. Wow. Strange stuff. I think I like it???!!!? not sure! So maybe I would be a good candidate for a plucky, yet bold and sensitive 'one of everything' scent!!! Just kidding - enjoy your awesomely cool catch!
