I am trying to think of the name of some dusting powder my late mother-in-law bought me for Christmas 1977, it was in a large round yellow dome with silver writing on it I think, she probably bought it in Boots. Anyone remember which perfume used a pale yellow packaging?

My guesses would be Charlie or Charlie Gold, but Chloe was also launched about that time.
