    Pleasant enough message.
    I am certain the commercial content, no matter how well-intended, alters in any way the olfactory offensiveness of the many Axe products. ;)

    Having smelled both, overapplications of Brut or something similar are insignificant next to overapplication of Axe. Typical a/s and colognes can be loud, but Axe has a noxious, throat-closing, weaponized quality.

    Nope to everything. Bad product and a commercial that attempts to forgive dictators and the evils of war because somebody loves them... whatever. Even Hitler was married in the bunker.

    My Facebook post from a couple days ago:

    "Dear Young Dudes at the Gym: Please stop dousing yourselves with Axe Body Spray before working out. It does NOT impress the ladies. Besides, it's Planet Fitness; all the ladies are your mothers' ages. If you do not stop, I will be forced to retaliate by splashing on a good dose of Brut, circa. 1973 each morning. You have been warned."

    A corny, sappy commercial doesn't change my opinion about Axe at all.

    I fail to to see the threat in that.

    Finally watched the ad. Another puerile, intellecutally insulting waste that contains no ugly people, so I cannot relate. But thanks for posting!

    That's right. A couple years ago I did use their blue menthol shampoo. Very nice stuff, very fridgey, don't know if they still make it. Made a great body wash in the dead of summer (unlike today, which is early fall).

    I'm reading the references on posts to AXE. I'm thinking I can't join in, I haven't a clue what people are on about...... Now I do. You mean LYNX.

    I've had this can knocking about for ages now. When I started on my traditional shaving journey, I also went back to a few other more traditional aspects. I don't use any aerosols now. But still got one or two in the cabinet.

    I use the mint and menthol body wash. I sometimes use their deodorant. The spray is not bad if you spray the air then walk through. Moderation makes some scents better. I've never liked coating myself in any smell.

    Axe is garbage. My dad uses it. I want to get rid of his cans of Axe and replace them with Old Spice. I just might do that.
