So the subject of antiperspirant came up yesterday and an argument appeared (because what else am I going to do with a girl in her room when its clear I don't have a cock anymore)

anyway what is your favorite deodorant particularly in the lynx/axe brand?

I prefer the dimension myself because I'm one of the few people who actually wear it in an endless see of Africa which I like to think makes me special (plus it smells nice)

If Britain was a deodorant? Wet, mildewy, somehow stuffy and with a faint whiff of lard fried fish and chips. :p

Axe/Lynx? Have you been huffing your own deoderant?

I have no respect for you whatsoever.

Why do you even need to ask? It's not crappy, it's amazing. (http://www.packaging-gateway.com/projects/diageobottling/images/5-johnny-walker.jpg)

Now, Axe is more entertaining if the gift giver includes a butane lighter with it.

I dunno, but I wouldn't apply either to my armpits. But then again I don't do that with deodorant either.

Certainly not AXE according to AXE commercials. Only Sweden can be that seductive, IMPO.

It would just be a private-label version of America-scented deodorant.

Well, when there's a strong wind in the wrong direction, the smell produced by a diet almost entirely made up of garlic as well as an average of three years without washing or using deodorant does sometimes drift across the Channel. But its not us Brits who are making the smell, we're just innocent victims.

Honestly. If you want polish food in Britain so badly, just buy some fish and chips and spray Mr Sheen over them.

I thought of "English Rose" but that's to corny so I settled on "Ophelia's potpourri":

There’s Rosemary, that’s for Remembrance. Pray you, love, remember. And there is Pansies, that’s for Thoughts.
Laertes A document in madness! Thoughts and remembrance fitted.
Ophelia There’s Fennell for you, and columbines. There’s rue for you, and here’s some for me. We may call it Herb of Grace o ’Sundays. Oh you must wear your rue with a difference! There’s a daisy. I would give you some Violets, but they wither’d all when my Father died. They say, he made a good end.

Flowers with attitude!

In any event the only good kippers are from Craster. (Or a Sekrit place in North Shields called Hadaways).

Why did it come up in the bedroom? Did you smell or something because really that would stop you from doing what you should be doing.

If we are talking Lynx then my two favourite 'smells' are Click and Vice.

I can't think of a smell, but I can think of an image - a middle-aged guy trying to act "hip and cool", but failing, who was actually likeable when just being himself.

Hope that's not too off-topic.

Hey I have proper Cologne quite a few different bottles, but I only place that one when I am going out to dinner, a night out or somewhere special if it just around the town I just bother with deodorant.

Tell me Call to Power what is your favourite Lynk/Axe product?
