I've been trying to find a men's cologne that was popular in the 1980's and I can not find it ANYWHERE.

I was wondering, since I've exhausted all ideas of where to look, if perhaps any of you know where I may find it.

Outside the U.S. members may be able to help me better, I don't know!

The cologne is called:


Mon Triomphe

Please...please help!

Cheryl,

I didn't do a search on this, but wondered if you tried to find it on fragrance.net

Yes I have tried E-Bay. Not to familiar on how to buy or search on that site, but, from what I did look, I couldn't find anything. Thanks anyway.

Yes I did! I even asked their "fragrance GURU"
and he/she couldn't find anything either.

Good suggestion, thanks, but I've tried that.

No, sorry. My boyfriend at the time wore it everyday. I still keep in touch with him. We got to talking about it and I thought it'd be a nice surprise gift for him.

I don't want to ask him that question, although he'd probably have the answer, cause I want it to be a surprise.

I can't believe you corrected him on that one - usually a woman would be happy to lose 20 years just like that
Have you tried looking in your little local pharmacies? I know over here they sometimes stock the more obscure/discontinued lines

First I corrected that statement cause they believed in the 80's I was an infant, so I set them straight by letting them know I was in my 20's then.

You make a good point, I shoulda let everyone think I was (or am) 20 yrs. younger.


I have looked when I've gone in many stores but don't see it anywhere. I've tried flea markets too. Thanks for the idea.

I know it's been discontinued but I'm trying to find it anyway. Maybe in a place that still has vintage colognes.

Or like the cologne "Old Spice" my Dad has unopened bottles of it that I could sell on Ebay. So I'm kinda hoping that someone may have a bottle of this cologne or knows of a vintage antinque or something store that may have it.

BTW: I looked in your profile and I highly respect you and your retired occupation. God bless you and the work you've done for so many.
