I have a hat that seemed fine until I brushed it and then OMG, the release of cologne scent just about knocked me out. I have vasomotor rhinitis which is a non-allergic hypersensitive immune response to, well, just about anything. Cosmetic fragrances are especially my kryptonite. Uhg :-(

The above quote makes me question your signature: Maybe not just a hat but a biological weapon...
I hope you are able to cleanse the hat

TThis stuff works great to remove strong odors from hats and many other things. I have used it to get cigarette smoke and musty smells out of hats. Belfastboy recently used it to get a strong perfume-y smell from a hat.

Fresh out of the box, a Stetson Royal Deluxe -- Would this be a Trilby?
Or perhaps a stingy brim fedora???

John @moehawk notified me of this Penn Craft (thank you, John). The price was right but the seller's pictures were so-so and the hat was very dusty. With all the dust and shadows on the pictures, I was apprehensive about the crown having damage, but it was worth the gamble. The good news; the felt is silky smooth - classic Penn Craft - and crown and brim are perfect with no bumps, dents or scrapes. The bad news; the sweatband has light cracking and is flaking in spots. It will have to be replaced in time, but, for now, I think it will go a few more years. I don't want to stress the sweat to get more pics, but it does have the interior size tag/handwritten reorder tag...good for provenance.

Failsworth in grey.
Does someone knows the age of it?
The spots on the hat is steam which has to dry, because it was in a not so good shape.

Another wonderful Stetson-era Mallory. I don’t own any Mallories from before the take-over, but I am thrilled with each one that I have from after.
This is my second “aristocratic quality” (which is, I believe, the second best tier). The felt looks and feels like it might have some wool in it.
This boasts a very nice top-stitch fold-over brim, but the ribbon is surprisingly a touch misaligned, which is a first for me with a hat from a big-name maker.
As suspected when purchased, the sweatband is coming undone from its 1940s style stitching; but other than that and a few stains this fellow has a lot of life left in him.
Nice to add another original 1940s style “adventure” hat to my collection.

Junior Borsalino in grey. Unfortunally no label inside. It's a little dirty (some spots on it) so i will see if i can clean that.
