Smitty was my beloved perfume when I was young, I would love-love-love to get a new bottle of my favorite perfume!!!

Finally after 2 years on fragrantica, I have remembered the fragrance I wore in high school. While everyone else was wearing “Charlie”, I wore this and loved it. It may have been the only drugstore scent I liked. I thought there was another one too but no other popular names from the time sound like the second frag.

I used this as a young teen. It smelled predominantly of oranges. Fresh, sassy and playful. Would love to smell it again to see if it smells the same.

I remember LOVING this as a teenager but like some others here, am struggling to conjure up the smell in my brain. I do remember how fresh and different it was from everything else at the time.

Has anyone for sale this perfume?

Loved this as a young teenager. Always smelled orange and green to me. A light and cheerful scent which lasted for ages.

This was my signature scent in 6th grade. I felt so sophisticated, I remember just LOVING the way it smellled. Funny, because all these years later I wouldn’t choose this based on the notes. I would love to smell it again to see if I still like it.

Oh, my word. Now this is one oakmoss marvel I’d LOVE to sample!

Loved this!! And I see from the notes that it contained moss, which would explain it. Always was all about the chypre-style.
I shall be stalking ebay for a bottle.
Edit – I have my smitty again!! So happy.
It’s a full-on chypre all right. The moss is evident from the first spray, and it’s very green too. Oh happy memories.
This is what drugstore fragrance was like back in the day – in a word, classy. How times have changed.

I remember Smitty as being a “clean” scent, but with an earthy drydrown that made it different from other clean frags like Jean Nate.
It was one of the “liberated woman perfumes” that emerged following the popularity of Charlie,
I really liked the “superfatted soap” scented with Smitty which was sold in a local drugstore. The fragrance from the soap lasted all day and it was quite moisturizing on the skin.
I wish they would bring this back, as long as it’s not reformulated!

I loved it.I think,today it will be a little too craemy for me.But it once of my first perfumes ever,my first big love 🙂
mow2007 – :
I used it in the 80s and loved it a lot. Sadly, I can’t remember the smell now. Wouldn’t be able to describe it. But would recognize it immediately, from miles away and with much pleasure!
It would evoke my dearest memories of me and two friends sitting at school and instead of concentarting on a lesson thinking how glamorous we are because of wearing the smell.
It was the best thing I owned in 1980s 🙂

Oh yes, I remember Smitty! Its was fun and you could expect catching a wiff of it at the local discos. It was nothing like Halston-the real disco perfume, yet it was fun. One thing I recall, was had a LOUD, sassy chypre character that stood out in a smoke filled disco and it was cheaply purchased at pharmacies all over the place. Coty was much more accessible at that time.
Like disco, it lasted just a few years. If you ever did the “Hustle” or the “Bump”, you will remember Smitty. Modern perfumistas have no pop dances, much less that much oakmoss in current fragance formulas. Ah, the good old days.

Update 11/16/2015
I took the plunge and purchased a 4.0 oz splash. It has not gone off. It is every bit as large as I remember. This is nothing like Charlie. Its very clean and bright. Its a big red rose in full bloom with some carnation and jasmine embellished with the classic green notes that were so popular in the 1970s-galbanum, patchouli, vetiver and oakmoss on amber and sandalwood. Coty spared no expense on this production. It last until your next shower.
