I wore this as a teen. Was hoping someone made a recreation of it for today. Always loved the smell of it.

This is so yummy! I haven’t smelled Brocade in probably 30 years, and I’d forgotten how lovely it is. I scored a vintage Avon salesperson sample set with this in it. I remember my mom had a spray bottle of Brocade on her dresser and I would sniff it every now and again in my childhood. So soft and powdery, but different. I really can’t describe the notes other than to say a powdery, soft musky floral. It’s all patterned polyester dresses and silk scarves to me. Lovely.

I will sum this up perfectly.
Remember the show “I Dream of Jeannie” ?
Remember Dr. Bellows ? And his wife ?
OK- this is THE fragrance that Amanda Bellows would wear. Period. LOL

I have a tiny flower/sun-shaped dram perfume bottle from around 1969-1970 of Brocade. I sampled it on a slip of acid-free paper and my first impression is a lily-of-the valley or hyacinth smell with roses and other florals mixed in. Reminds me of Apres L’Ondee with much less carnation and no spice, just sweet flowers. Little bit of woody smell underneath but mostly flowers.
I got brave and wore my Brocade and it is definitely heavy on lily of the valley and orris with some oakmoss and maybe sandalwood. Very soapy pretty and powdery on top with a woody base.

I don’t find anything sweet about this perfume, maybe a little, but mostly I find it to be a lovely vintage style rose chypre. Elegant & old fashioned, a bit dusty, mossy, floral, featuring iris, violet, & rose. I’ll have to investigate further, it stays close to the skin, at least the perfume oil does. Long lasting though!

This is lighter than most Avon perfumes of the sixties and early seventies. The opening is a fresh English rose, with a soft, sweet musk coming close behind. This is gentle, subtle, and powdery.
