I literally just left the VCS website and was looking at the Lemon Up shampoo and reading reviews!! I used it back in the day and really liked the fragrance. VCS also has Gee, Your Hair Smells Teriffic! shampoo but the reviews are not good for that product. I’d love it if Herbal Essence came back in its original fragrance. That was my fave shampoo! I’m thinking about buying the Lemon Up- it’s a (kinda pricey) walk down memory lane.

Something else I miss is Love's Fresh Lemon cologne. I've seen some advertised that supposedly use the same formula, but it's not what I remember.

I liked Bath and Body Works Summer Vanilla fragrances they had a few years ago. The Vanilla Lemon was nice. Of course they stopped making it and it’s never on the classic fragrances that they bring back. I’ve been wearing their Limoncello this summer. It smells nice! I’m a big “lemon” fan!

And she said she was just thinking about that shampoo and how good it smelled. And she doesn't even get the catalog!

How could something be that bad with a whole 🍋 in it? Lol.

Memory Lane all their old fragrances too.
