The Healing Garden products/perfumes. I would use them in the 2000s. *sigh* Best scents there ever were.

Unruly perfume. This is my favorite perfume ever! I would wear it throughout the early 2000s.

I always felt that way about the smell of brand new albums in the 70s. Just opened from their shrinkwrap, the combination smell of new ink, cardboard and vinyl was fantastic. Wonderful. It only lasted a while though, and would soon fade.

Another scent that reminds me of the 2000s, Neutrogena's Deep Clean Cleanser....I used it a lot during the mid 2000s. Just recently I was at a store and they happened to have the cleanser there. I opened it and the scent took me back to my mid 20s. They are so hard to find now though! Just like those Healing Garden products that I mentioned. In the 2000s you could find them everywhere. Today we can only find them online in some sites. And they don't have the same kinds they use to have.

I used to wear that cotton candy perfume as well as those Calgon body sprays. I liked the tropical blue one best. Forgot what they called it. Candies perfumes always smelled sweet too, though I never owned any and don't know where offline you can find it now.

Also, the scent of fresh gel pen ink from Jelly Roll pens, especially the scent the metallic variety left on the paper.

That intoxicating Axe deodorant spray. Actually that is pan-2000s but ugh you catch my drift.

Lynx deodorant was really popular, at least here in the UK.

They used to have these adverts as well
