My Inheritance

My grandfather's old cologne bottles. Most of these I had never seen before, but the one I remember the most, and the one I really wanted to have, is the pheasant. I'm glad he still had it.

  4. pete, the customer base is aging. i never wear cologne and i don't know anybody my age or younger who does.

    there's a couple of mustangs and thunderbirds in there.

    i don't think he liked the cologne in the duck. it's full, and it smells like ammonia.
