LizzieM 9,507 Posted July 16, 2020 Report Share Posted July 16, 2020 Must admit BRUT was a favourite of mine, not for me of course. Strangely enough whenever I’ve seen it on the shelves at the ‘bargain stores’ in recent years it reminds me of the Playhouse Bar in the early 70s. There must have been a fanciable young man in there wearing it ......... wonder where he got to?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

radfordred 6,284 Posted July 16, 2020 Report Share Posted July 16, 2020 Newlyn Drive always smells like the best curry house in the world. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MelissaJKelly 2,121 Posted July 16, 2020 Report Share Posted July 16, 2020 Love the smell of chip shop curry sauce. Had it tonight and just smells so good! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DJ360 6,728 Posted July 16, 2020 Report Share Posted July 16, 2020 I've mentioned my favourite smells upthread. The worst male 'fragrance' by a country mile has to be Issey Miyake. I call it 'Pissy Miyake because to me it smells exactly like stale pee in a badly maintained Gents Toilet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mess 617 Posted July 17, 2020 Report Share Posted July 17, 2020 I love the smell of a steam locomotive. The hot sulphurous smell in the cab from the firebox and the smoke from the chimney are wonderful. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I used to spash on Brut 33 and I hung out in the mid-70s Playhouse Bar!! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HSR 286 Posted July 18, 2020 Report Share Posted July 18, 2020 Didn't the Playhouse bar have coffee dispensers at this time, you could grab as many milk & sugar sachet's as you wanted? Wasn't the seating, in the theatre also retractable? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But my memory is hazy! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Centaur 71 Posted July 18, 2020 Report Share Posted July 18, 2020 If the fanciable young man wearing Brut was about 6feet 4, super fit and in looks was a cross between Terence Stamp in Far from the Madding Crowd and Robert Redford in Butch Cassidy then you may recognise me. I regularly stood next to him. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
