A girlfriend gave me a small bottle of Fidji by Guy Laroche for my 21st birthday (and y'all know how long ago THAT was!!). I loved it, and it became my go-to/"everyday" eau de cologne for the next several decades. (It was a step up from Charlie and Love's Baby Soft, lol.) (A few of my other favourites included Clinique Wrappings -- sadly long gone now -- and for dressy occasions, Chanel Allure.)
But then Fidji started getting harder to find (I referenced that in this post from 2011!) -- and more departments at work started going scent-free -- so I stopped wearing perfume regularly, except on special occasions such as weddings.
Nevertheless, I was tickled to spot an old familiar logo on the shelf at the drugstore recently -- I even brought out my phone/camera and snapped a photo that I posted on Instagram (see below). I still have a partly full bottle that I've been hoarding (it hasn't evaporated yet! lol) -- but it's nice to know it's back, if I want more!

That's so great when an old favorite comes back! I'd be tempted to buy a bottle just in case. My favorite scent as a younger person was Clinique Happy, and Sunflowers. I did find a cool hippie perfume in a store in Vermont that was Earl Grey, and it smelled like the tea but also not like you were a teabag. :) Although, usually I don't wear any perfume at all, maybe every once in a while for a special occasion. Yay for your old friend returning! :)
