Old Spice must have a national pubescent program. My son got one too and went through the whole sample stick in about a week. Thank god it’s gone now and he hasn’t yet moved onto the Man Spray!

This is evidence that advertising works. Because back in our day, body sprays were…you know, body spray. Now they’re hip. Manly.

Still body spray though. He’ll figure it out when he’s like 34.

Totally hearing the Axe thing – all three of my teens went through that very phase. We literally could smell them getting ready down in the basement. It’s temporary, by the way!

I’m still laughing at the fact that he came home with a sample of “Old Spice”. WTF?

How old are the people on the school board who decided that would be the sample to give out?

I mean don’t all kids these days want to smell like grandpa?

I know it’d make me hot if some guys smelled like my dad.

Yes, smell is the way to someone’s heart–or the way to get someone a migraine. If you really want him to tone back, you can explain that many people are allergic to strong scents and he may be doing more harm than good. The BF isn’t allowed to wear cologne to the office because clients come there sometimes.

Shannon, my mom used Chanel No. 5 as well–the only perfume she would wear. I love perfume and have lots of different kinds, though I never compromise on lotion–Victoria Secret’s Love Spell, and I get complimented consistently by men AND women on my scent. My high school boyfriend wore CK1 and the smell still makes me swoon.
