I'm betting that the jacket has been cleaned. Pity! Wouldn't it be a real treasure if the Woodhue scent still permeated the jacket? Woodhue by Fabergé was our Dino's cologne. It's almost impossible to obtain it now.
Deanna Martin has just a bit left in an old bottle that belonged to our Dino. She wrote that she takes out that bottle from time to time to feel closer to her dad. Scent memories last the longest, you know.
Hey pallie, likes what a cool Dino-observation Miss AOW...certainly woulda be cool to piece of Dino-apparel that was likes Dino-scented!
Keeps lovin' our most beloved Dino!
