Axe Kilo. Anybody like it?

I have for the most part been a deodorant only kind of guy. Every now and then a splash of AS, but that's about it. Since beginning with the SR I've been pulling AS, cologne, body sprays, body washes, etc., that people have given me as gifts over the years out of all of the nooks and crannies I had them stashed in. In doing so, I've lucked out in that some of it, like the Halston AS and cologne, as well as some AS balm and Eau de toilette by Swiss Army, I really like.
But I've also found some Axe Kilo body spray and body wash.
Like I said, I'm new to this sort of thing, and all of the commercials I see of the Axe stuff is all about young guys(I'm 50).
Are there certain scents or brands that are more suited to the younger guys? Anyone here use this stuff?
To be honest, I've given it a whiff, and I'm not sure what I think about it. Doesn't really turn my crank, but it's not horrible, either. Trying to decide whether I want to keep it or trash it.

I think in the "Old School after shave recommendations" thread, there were at least a few who thought there should be a law against anyone over 20 wearing Axe. Don't even give it away. Trash it.

Give it a try, it's really the only way to find out if you like it. I think all the axe products i have ever smelled are awful and chemically, their scents just don't seem to be real

Axe is all marketing and no substance if you ask me. Trash it. :)

Nah. Like I said, doesn't really turn my crank. I just kinda wanted to know what the consensus was. It already went in the trash before I got the first reply to this thread, lol.
Thanks.

That was probably a wise choice as well lol, it seemed it is used more by kids who don't feel like showering lol

My younger son used to use the stuff and I told him either lose it or never come into the house again. It even makes my Husky sneeze.

I did hear that if you spray it around the foundation of your home it will keep ants and rodents out...

Axe body spray is pretty awesome if you have a lighter laying around...just make sure you are dressed safely so you don't get any on you. :rofl2:


I find that we each have to kind of feel out our cologne choices, everyone's body chemisty and what works for them is different. When it comes to putting it on less if often more.

I personally have been using Victoria's Secret Very Sexy for Him for a few years and every once in a while I use Clinique Happy For Men. I don't give a great deal of thought to my cologne choices though...if SWMBO likes it and it's not repugnant, it has my vote.
