    Touch spray all the way! I prefer Red Zone 'Pure Sport' body spray though. Old Spice owns Axe! :p

    Is Axe the American word for Lynx? I saw some Axe at someone's house while on holiday, and it did look similar.

    Personally, I like the clean edge you get when you slice through a neck-Oh, you mean the body spray? Ah. Well. ;)

    I use Axe Pulse spray, which is not listed on your poll. Other than Voodoo (which I hate) none of the other fragrances are available here or are marketed under a different name.

    That's possible. I listed the fragrances available up in Canada and US. I don't know about other countries... but it's possible they're sold under another name.

    In my case, it's necessary. I sweat a ****ing lot and it smells *really, really* bad.

    I'm not a big fan of Axe. I stick with my old school Addidas Moves.

    Speaking as one of the female persuasion, you can fall back on the ancient method of using soap and water. ;)

    Well, I've only recently ended employment with a big company which enforces a governmental SCENT_FREE workplace policy - I've had to perform first aid on one allergic lass when she walked too close to someone with perfume on. (the former quit from the call centre some months before I left because far too many people were breaking the policy for her to remain in safety, even though we had a lot of offenders terminated; the latter was terminated BECAUSE she reeked of perfume that day despite already signing an agreement to follow the NO SCENT policy)

    ANYWAY, my point is that because of all this hulabaloo, I simply use an unscented solid deoderant - also never have to dither over what fragrence to buy/use... so, nyah! :lol:

    I'm beginning to believe that Axe is a subtle attempt to perform eugenics upon the gene pool - prevent the people with this weakness from breeding; I'm undecided if this is a good thing (improvement of the species) or not... :hmm:

    @kuemper: Ah yes, the classic shower. While I agree with you on that one... I can't imagine myself doing the trip back home to take a shower during lunch... considering I've only got an hour and that making the trip homes takes like 40 minutes... I prefer just spreading Axe in my armpits and just forget about smelling bad for the rest of the day.

    I don't really like how any of the Axe products smell...and neither does my g/f, so there is no real reason why I should wear any of them.

    For me, I use Old Spice - High Endurance in the 'Pure Sport' sent. And if I want to smell really good, I use some 'Cool Water' or 'Lucky for Men' calogne. :rolling:

    Heh, Axe frangrances are sort of a "love it or hate it".

    The smell of Kilo drove my ex crazy, in the good way, just as her Vanilla body spray was excellent at giving me sudden and violent testosteron rushes. After we parted ways I felt the call of change and now use Essence :D

    I don't put any perfume, cologne or any, so the smell of Axe is just the only thing I smell.

    I take a shower in the morning, and never, ever skip a day. A day withouth taking a shower would drive me crazy.

    Yeah, I don't like Axe, or any sprays or gels. I prefer a solid stick of Right Guard. Smell isn't overpowering, but is nice.

    And yes, showering is good too.

    What about that new Axe 'body wash' gel? I tried it (Touch scent) but didn't smell anything on myself after getting out of the shower. Old Spice High Endurance 'Pure Sport' actually works.

    I often use solid stick but I don't know any of fragrances mentioned in the poll.

    Just got out of the shower, and, just like I thought, I stink the Essence frangrance. Slick. :D
