An Old Spice Flash Back I Didn't Expect

I got a glass bottle of OS on the bay and it arived today.

I am fourty years old my dad passed away in 1994 at the age of 72. When I pulled the stopper out of the bottle of OS memories of my dad hit me that I did not expect............

It was because of the memories of him that I had that I started DE shaving about five years ago or so. He used a Gillette Rocket and a can of Foamy to shave fallowed by a dash of OS every sunday morning befor church like clock work.

I am still looking for a decent Gillette Rocket I will pass on the Gillette Foamy how ever....

I need to go have a moment now didn't see these emotions coming at all
 
Everytime I catch a whif of OS it reminds me of my grandpa and all the fond memories we had together. They say smell is the biggest trigger for memories.
 
Sorry to hear that it was such a shock. I hope you're feeling better soon.
There are some products I just can't use anymore for similar reasons.

My dad used to lather with Williams, and we even practiced shaving when I was a kid. He's not around any more, and it's kind of a bittersweet feeling.
