The Shards S01E09 (Stairway to Heaven)

We return to Bret’s bathroom. Most of the products in it were spotted in the first two episodes.

The spray can with yellow and orange disc on the front is Dial long-lasting deodorant.

At this point it’s clear Guy Laroche Drakkar Noir is his signature scent. Unfortunately this fragrance hasn’t been given any space in the narration. It’s a choice that makes sense, though: Bret is an internal narrator, but he’s not particularly reliable, and he tends to hold back specific personal details, especially those regarding his parents. He observes and notices everything about the people around him, but he is rarely the object of someone’s observation, besides Robert’s.

The half-hidden spray can with yellow cap is Gillette The Dry Look hairspray.

The half-visible jar on the right is Noxzema medicated skin cream.
