Welcome and thanks for your post. I have the AVON STERLING SIX LEATHER in the dark glass decanter. It's practically full and I got it for, I think it was $6. or close to it, about ten years ago in a little 2nd hand shop.

Stirling Six is the name of the Decanter. That's the name of the car. Tai Winds is the name of the aftershave. Each of Avon's 300+ special shaped decanters has it's own name. And each decanter might have 3-4 different scents in it.

No problem. We've got an Avon Collector's thread around here if you have more, or you want to know more about them. I have hundreds of bottles myself and own the Avon Collector's Guide so I can look up the bottles if you want to know anything about them (like their age).
