Agreed.
Either that, or revive and relaunch.
Don't make them languish in a state of slow starvation, gradually cheapening the ingredients that made them shine.

I say give them a dignified end, or maintain them respectfully.

I‘m sooo with you on this, Pia !!! It‘t heart wrenching to find the icons of the past mutilated…

Signed, stabbed in my heart by a destroyed memory from 1989.

so now I'm like... I must smell Ralph Lauren's Tuxedo ... but I'd have to pay for a sample from Fragrance vault, have it shipped (and now 25% tariffs on everything sigh). imagine if there was just a library I could go to and sign it out to smell. one can dream.

when I went to Grasse I was desperate to smell oakmoss. I'd heard of it but never smelled. So literally an hour into my arrival at the museum I was like "can I smell oakmoss" and they took me to it. this is the shelf with a great big hunk of dried vetiver.
