Allee Willis’ Kitsch O’ The Day – 1970 Avon Eiffle Tower Perfume
Originally 3 oz. of Avon perfume of undetermined name – Unforgettable, Topaze or OCCUR!, all of which came encased inside the Tower back in 1970. I used this once and couldn’t stand being around myself it reeked so bad so much of the contents remains.
The bottles are fairly easy to find but usually sans perfume. I screwed off the cap for the first time in decades in order to write this and it still smells like vinegar and whiskey might have been some of the ingredients. Bottle is 8-1/2″ tall with a goldtone plastic cap. Not a nick in sight.

Hi, Jeri. I’d love to see any Avon bottles you have in The Allee Willis Museum Of Kitsch at awmok.com. They will have lots of company there! I don’t need the real objects, just great photos, a title and description. The direct link to upload is: http://www.alleewillis.com/awmok/kitschenette/how-to-submit/.
