Marcia’s Timeless Perfume Favorites Some perfumes are more than just scents — they’re memories. From timeless classics I’ve loved for decades to newer favorites, these are fragrances I truly enjoy. Most are affordable and easy to find on Amazon. One thing I’ve noticed with many classic perfumes from the late 1980s to 1990s is that they feel more diluted today, even when they’re presented as the originals. Still, these fragrances remain special to me because of the memories and emotions they carry.
