    Default Hai Karate

    Has anyone ever used or smelled it? I know it has turned in to kind of a joke but I am kind of interested.

    Don't ever use that stuff. Chicks now days are way tougher than they used to be and unless you are a UFC champ, they will kill you.

    I can't recall the smell but it was a hot item when I was in high school, along with 007. I don't know if they still make it.

    I remember it well. It was one of the Big Four along with Jade East, Brut, and Canoe. All were waaaay too sweet and cloying for me. But just like fashions come and go, they were popular at the time and the law said you had to have them.

    I think the commercials made it a joke, but the scent in the orange-yellow color was wonderful stuff and I'd use it now if it were available. I don't remember the details of the commercial except there were a lot of karate chops.

    When I started shaving in high school, typical teenage zit problems prohibited me from using aftershave at all, but on hot dates and other special occasions I wasn't going to be denied.
