I haven't seen a thread for this, so I figured I'd make one. I'm a fan of Axe and have beem ever since I tried it a few months ago. I guess you could call this an official Axe thread. So my question is are you a fan of Axe?Fun little fact: Axe is known as Lynx in other parts of the world.

it's good for boys from the ages from 10-14 who don't know what a real fragrance smells like/want to cover up the smell of sweat.

Agreed. I don't know of any girls who like the smell of Axe, and I know of only one person who actually uses it and thinks it is good.

Can't stand the smell anymore after a gradeschool incident. Never let idiots get ahold of an entire bottle...or else you wont be able to breathe in a 20 foot radius of the room they sprayed it in.

Anything is better than Red Spice at least.


I prefer the speed stick though. For deodorant at least.

Not sure why. It's probably the color.

Axe is terrible, but as was pointed out 10-14. If you're wearing it at like 20...

It's called cologne, man.

I was like the only middle schooler in the locker room who staunchly opposed that **** and wondered why those kids thought it was cool to wear it.

i like it because if you put an ignited lighter up to it acts as a flamethrower.

Meh, it's tolerable if you use it in moderation once in a while. If you just take the it and spray half the bottle on your body like it seems a lot of people do, then it's friggin annoying.

Lynx, as it's known in Australia, is terrible. I really liked Dufour, though. The blue and red one were great and I'd probably still wear it today but they don't sell it anymore, which I'm really sad about.

But yeah, Lynx/Axe sux. If you use it I'd recommend trying to find something better. Remember: just because you're told something is good, doesn't mean that it is.

Roll on Lynx/Axe is pretty good actually, it lacks the harshness of the aerosol variant and it keeps your underarms dry and fresh.

Still, the spray isn't all that bad if you towel off after some sport and give yourself a spray when you don't have time to hit the showers. It keeps you from smelling like an ape until you get home and can shower.

I'm a cologne man though. Soft and pleasant fragrances rather than harsh, overpowering ones any day.

I just love the people who think that the spray = stick deodorant. They spray it under their arm pits. I guess they don't realize it just smells like a mix of that nasty spray and their bo.

The only good thing Axe does is make you more flammable than usual, which is a cool because I'm a fan of natural selection.

Axe name makes sense. It "cuts" the bad smell. Wth is lynx?
I choked quicker from reading that explanation then from the deodorant itself.

Axe is a terrible, terrible name.

The spray kind isn't that bad. It is however when some idiot decides to go ape **** with it. Seriously guys. You don't need THAT much. A little goes a long way. Using too much Axe isn't a good idea. In fact, If I remember right. A boy in Europe died from using too much Axe.

Not quite.

A young in Manchester died because he would shower 4 times a day and douse himself in 12 different deodorants. It's a true story, it won a confirmed Darwin Award lol.

I've started using silver ion deodorant to see if the theoretical science actually pulls it off.

It should actually work very well, technically, but we'll see.

I use axe and I think it smells pretty good. I think its a matter of which ones to use tho. The old *** ones where you press and spray smell tacky as hell and i dont like them but the one im currently using is one where you twist the nozzle before you can press and spray and it smells mad good. Its called "fusion" with red and blue dragons on the front...fusing. And yeah if you spray half the bottle it wont smell good but like thats the same with cologne. Have you ever been near anyone doused in cologne? lol. Just use a little and its good.
