This scent has a certain Je ne sais quois
How emasculating it must be for a woman to think you smell nice. Being attractive to the opposite sex is so gay.
I actually use the original scent Old Spice "stinky stuff," and I like it, as does a certain lady... But it's been getting harder and harder to find. I can get the new "sport" or "mountain" or "glacier" scent Old Spice anywhere, but only one place still seems to carry the original scent anymore.
Granted, I'm not sure that this is breaking news, unless I've run out...

Being human and somewhat vain (and heterosexual) I am influenced in these decisions by women's reactions. i don't wear cologne but I changed shampoo this week and my wife mentioned she liked the way I smelled so I took notice of that.
Now, the best reaction from men is no reason at all. I don't want to offend anyone in the office , male or female, by smelling bad but I really prefer men not notice how I smell at all - and if they do notice I certainly don't want them telling how good I smell.
A very well kept secret is being exposed by me, women love vanilla exact smell... a little dab will do you.
Hopefully, they will come out with "Submarine Man."
It will give you the smell of a sailor just back from a smooth MAD run or a gnarly fast boat mission.
Nothing like the smell of ozone, scrubbers, bilges, diesel fumes, and recycled air to get the missus going ape when you walk through the door!
"If women knew we were slathering Arctic Peak on our hard bodies after a morning shower, wed be laughed out the front door."
Its for and by women that this is being done, not for us men. What do you think those women in the boardrooms and corproate offices do all day...fix coffee?
They want you wussies to slather as much scent as women do.
Its manipulation and was admitted as such when Nivea started this crap years ago. They bombed with their make up for men...tho some use it...but the scent thing is gaining some ground.
Letting women into formerly male bastions has led to all manner of attempts at "wussification" on all levels. Its certainly ruined journalism, commercial advertising, law, everything it has touched.
imho.
It used to be women that stunk up the elevator with their morning dip in the $1.00/gallon perfume, now men are just as bad.
I dont buy into all the foo-foo garbage. That's why I wear Elk scent.
my shampoo is apple (the cheap stuff), deoderant is degree shower fresh, my shaving cream is burma shave aloe vera, and my soap is pure & natural. I got a woman who cooks and cleans for me. I am happy.
