I never got that reaction.... I must sue the company that made that stuff!

The ads are working. I heard something on the radio about how at a Jr. High locker room, the clouds of Axe wafting out at the end of each period is amazing.

CJFusco 01-15-2007 08:32 PM

The irony being that most of the girls I know attest that Axe and the like smell terrible.

So what smells good? That's a funny ad, but this could be a thread about male colognes and which ones do not suck. I've never used the stuff, just Mennen Skin Bracer which is handed down from my Dad. I think that the stuff is in my Dad's pores from using it for decades, the guy is 75 y.o. and he always smells good. I can't smell it on myself.

So what gets the compliments from the lady-folk?

Wayne, new adverttizing motto.

Pelican parts, Buy more, get more (wink)

I wear Armani Code and Armani Mania and the girls seem to like it.

I agree about Axe being terrible. That **** gives me a headache.

Girls my age group (21-27ish) seem to love the Abercrombie colognes. The key is to wear just a hint of any given fragrance, of course, not douse yourself in it like some fat Italian strip club owner.

My mother is a HS teacher, and they had to ban scents at her school because of this. Too much aftershave or cologne was an occasional issue before, but after the axe commercials it was madness.

I haven't used Axe and I'm not gonna. I'm in grave danger each time I open my ancient bottle of Hai Karate, so I usually just stick to Old Spice.

Axe is the new Brut. I stick with bay Rum..

I think the multiple references to high school boys answers that question.

I have got compliments on Largerfield.

Advertising is more powerful on a subliminal level than most people realize.

Take Corona for example. It's bad beer. Period. But the ads are BRILLIANT. I KNOW it's bad beer, and I can't stand the "taste" of it, but when I see a Corona ad, I want a Corona.

Some years ago, a "factory outlet mall" thing...our wives shopping. A friend & I strolling around, bored to death. We noticed a fancy "scents" store. We strolled in, a curte salesgirl asked if she could help us.

"May I help you?"

"Yes. Do you sell men's aftershave?"

"Of course. We carry all of the popular male scents."

"Good. I need a bottle of skin Bracer."

Guys, the look on her face was priceless! :D

Interestingly, according to a study i saw in a magazine in the UK (take with grain of salt), that baby powder was the sexiest scent on men for the women surveyed.

And it is utterly amazing at how good they are sniffing it out...
