Try this and see: Fill a 1/2-gal glass container with clean, non-chlorinated (chlorine stinks!) water, and add 5 or 6 fresh cucumber slices to it. Cover and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes; the longer, the better. Don't sniff the water & cucumbers in the pitcher; it's not the same. Just pour some of the cucumber water in a glass...not only does it taste delicious, it smells just like Slicker. I have a very good nose; I have a tube of Slicker with the Yardley scent, and I cannot tell the difference, except for the strength. Unbelievable!

I don't have any left but I DO have a pair of those yardley eyelashes, they made one design that were all looop-de-loop - no one's ever made that design again... also I remember the TV jingle singing 'slicker under... slicker over... slicker alone....' such a cool makeup line. That key chain pictured was uptown slicker, the frosty white color.
