So sorry for your family’s loss. Do not ever get rid of this! What you have there is a Time Machine. Over the years, fragrance manufacturers will change the recipes or formulations for certain reasons (usually to save $). A new bottle of that might not smell exactly the same, whereas THAT bottle - and the juice inside - that will always be the one he held, and the fragrance he wore.
