Remember the Vidal Shampoo from the 1970s/80s?

I found a dupe and it smells GGGGRRRREEEEAAAT!!!!!!!!

It smells EXACTLY like it! It had me exited like a child at christmas.

Ion Color Defence Deep Daily Conditioning in the PURPLE bottle. Now it is only the conditioner that has the almond smell that im aware of. I know the sulfate free color shampoo smells like grapefruit but I think there is a with-sulfate shampoo that may also smell like almonds but can not find it.

Yes, how could I forget the smell. I loved it and, yes, I purchased it back then. Did you do a Google to see if it exists?

Somebody posted a positive review about this line the other day -- don't recall if it was this particular shampoo or another one. Actually, I'm thinking this might be the one. Worth looking into!

That was me as well on the color sulfate shampoo. I went back to sallys with a coupon i got in the mail and smelled this randomly and snatched it up. And 8 shampoos later my color is still going strong

I always loved the cream rinse (not a conditioner) from the Vidal Sassoon line. The smell does not come to mind, I just loved the way my hair felt after using it and it did not get greasy too soon after using it.

I'll be checking out the Ion conditioner, though. The shampoo, too, why not.

Thanks for the heads-up on this brand!!

They gave me the Ion conditioner in the white and red bottle, Repair Solutions, and it was very heavy even for my dry hair. That's why I haven't tried anything else of theirs but am going to try this and the grapefruit scented one Smiley Happy
