so i was browsin this antique store the other day, its kind of an indoor flea market, about 30 different booths full of antiques, all unattended.

there was colognes and after shaves all over the place, some with amazing bottles, but the smells, the smells were quite disgusting.
i imagine all the thinner liquids evaporated over time, leaving behind cologne-concentrate.
the only thing in the entire place that was even reasonable smelling was an old bottle of old spice after shave.
they had a bottle of "grey flannel" cologne that was like syrup.

is this the norm for old colognes, or are there some that actually still smell pleasant.
