Okay, so, I’ve been messing around with this old perfume from American Eagle, you know, the “AEO Vintage” one? It’s been a trip, let me tell you. I started by digging up whatever I could find about it online. Apparently, it came out back in 2013, and it’s supposed to be this fruity, flowery, sweet kind of smell.
First thing I did was give the bottle a good once-over. It’s this little glass thing, nothing fancy. But the real deal with these old perfumes is checking for, like, gunk around the top, where the spray thing is. You see, because of the old oils, the bottles would get discolored over time. If it’s all clean and perfect, it might not be the real deal. Mine had a bit of that gunk, so that was a good sign.
- I looked up where to buy it. Some online stores still sell it, but it’s getting rare.
- Found out that these old bottles can be worth a bit, depending on how old, how rare, and how beat up they are.
- Checked the American Eagle website, and they have a bunch of new perfumes, but not this old one. They do these deals sometimes, like buy one get one half off, which is cool.
Then I really got into it. I tried to find people talking about it online, on forums and stuff. Some folks said it was their favorite, and they were bummed it got discontinued. Others shared tips on how to make it last longer or how to find similar smells.
Anyway, after messing around with it, I finally sprayed some on. It’s definitely got that fruity vibe, maybe a bit of a flowery thing going on too. It’s sweet, but not, like, super sugary, you know? Not sure it’s the kind of smell I would wear everyday, but it was really interesting to explore it.
So, that’s my little adventure with the AEO Vintage perfume. It’s been fun digging into the history of it, seeing what other people think, and finally getting to smell it myself. It’s like a little time capsule in a bottle.
