Avon collectables? Old cologne bottles- Value? Anyone have any idea?

Hi there, My family and I bought an old farm a few years ago and are finally cleaning out some of the old sheds and garages scattered around the property. One of the garages has a little washroom (it used to be the main house on the property) with old Avon and other bottles inside. Now, they may just be junk but I thought I should check to make sure. I haven’t been able to find them anywhere else so I thought it would make a good question. They are all in good shape and most of them are still full. They are all clear glass except for the car and the “Sagittarius”, which are black. There’s an Avon bottle shaped like a car with a plastic over piece with a tire on back. It’s sticker reads mostly AVON BUGATTI’27 DEEP WOODS after shave 6.5 oz Montreal-New York. There’s another Avon bottle with no sticker. It’s a square shape with a smaller square on top and below the bigger one. Two sides have a star burst pattern and the other two have kind of a big “M” shape with a smaller “V”ish shape above it. The bottom only reads “AVON 8”. The last Avon bottle is “Sagittarius” with centaurs across the sticker. No other writings on the bottle. Another bottle reads “Roman Brio Leather after shave” and is shaped like a pyramid with chariots on the lid. The sticker reads "LEEMING OF CANADA DIV. PFIZER COMPANY LTD. MONTREAL QUEBEC". It's not Avon. The last bottle is shaped kind of like a seashell and reads “Chantilly Hand lotion- Houbigant LTEE NEW YORK-MONTREAL”. Not Avon either. There are some more bottles still out in the washroom, but I haven’t brought them out yet. Please let me know what you think, if they have any value or if they are just junk. Thanks!
