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.

The Shards S01E02 (Don’t You Want Me)

Bret (Igby Rigney) is in his bathroom. In it we can see all the products spotted in the TV show pilot.

The horse-shaped column bottle is Avon Pony Post.

The black matte bottle is Guy Laroche Drakkar Noir, an aromatic fougère fragrance created by Pierre Wargnye and launched in 1982.

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

The only new addition is Fabergé Brut 33 splash-on lotion.

The Shards S01E01 (Pilot)

In the first episode we get a close look at Brett’s bathroom, and see some interesting products in it.

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

The horse head bottle is obviously an Avon design — Pony Post. Traditionally, Avon’s quirky bottles housed several fragrances, so it’s impossible to tell what this one contained.

When the camera follows the protagonist (Igby Rigney) into his bedroom, we can also see a jar of Noxzema skin cream.

Half-hidden behind a perfumed talc shaker, there’s the unmistakable matte black bottle of a 1980s classic — Guy Laroche Drakkar Noir. It’s an aromatic fougère fragrance created by Pierre Wargnye and launched in 1982.
