Yeah, it does. I thought the whole point was to use a product to remove body odor, not give you body odor.

Don’t know that brand but I prefer unscented body products. Doesn’t clash with whatever perfume I’m wearing.

I beg your pardon? lol~

Oh, Peee-yew! Axe's smell is cheap and nasty. My nephew wore it when he was a teenager before he got some taste.

I have a personal scent - Armani Musk, as picked out by my ex-girlfriend. I'm fond of it. But when you put on Axe deodorant (why would you?) or even antiperspirant the smell just overpowers it. I haven't used Axe in ages now. I vastly prefer unscented products.

As a high school teacher, Axe is so nasty. It is everywhere and it doesn't take away the eau de teenage boy odor, it just adds to it and makes it overwhelming. I wish Axe would die.

The funny thing is, I used to use it in spades when I was a teen along with my fellow classmates. We liked "Voodoo" a lot. We thought we were sooooo sophisticated.

Oh I'm sure you (and your fellow classmates) were just like the boys on my campus now. They seem to love it and all of the rest of us are

The official fragrance of puberty.

My son used Axe products while in high school and they sure could take over the house! I gravitate to unscented or at most very lightly scented products, so Axe was extra noticeable to me.

I used to work in a 6th grade classroom... enough said.

Sadly, its also dangerous if you use too much of it.

"became obsessed with smelling fresh and would cover his entire body in deodorant at least twice a day. He died after suffering a heart attack. It is believed that the gases built up in his body over months during which Jonathan repeatedly sprayed himself in the bedroom of his home in Oldham, Greater Manchester."

Definitely, they grow out of it before they graduate high school. My sons are 5 years apart so we had that smell here for a while.

Axe was awful on my middle schoolers. Probably no different to the adults I was around when wearing Hi Karate, or Brute or British Sterling

 

[hertamaniac]

Did Axe have some of their sprays changing scents or was that a different brand? Maybe it was React.

My daughter is in 7th grade. The school has had to send letters home asking that items like Axe be used sparingly. According to my daughter the boys are basically drowning themselves in it every day.

I didn't think anyone over the age of 16 even used Axe tbh and that's pushing it. Max age is maybe 14-15.

I am 50 years old. I’m wearing Axe right now.
