[Parche]

:shrug: :hi:

[billyskank]

1. I like the smell of cumin seeds frying.

[Parche]

4. Seeds Can Cum?

:shrug: :shrug: :hi:

:rofl:

[Der Blaue Engel]

2. Ugh! Dear, god, no.

It reminds me of a particular pedophile. :puke:

I know that's not Old Spice's fault, but ugh.

[kaiden]

3. My dad wore that back in the 50's and 60's.

So, if a guy was wearing that now, I'd say, "Daddy?"

[Swede]

89. Mine too.

It brings back memories.

[redqueen]

5. No way.

Smells like a pervert I once knew.

[billyskank]

6. *scratches Old Spice off his shopping list*

[redqueen]

20. hahah

:P

[Parche]

14. Me Too

Its too...old, and too spicey for me.............:rofl: :rofl: :hi:

[redqueen]

21. So... what do you wear?

You gonna answer lost or what?

[Parche]

23. Most Of The Time

I wear clothes, but in honor of billyskank sometimes not....:hi:

[Capn Sunshine]

49. what, we're not talking anymore?

:evilgrin:
No more horsie rides?

[redqueen]

57. Whaaaa?

Did you mean to reply to someone else?

Horsie rides? :rofl:

[hisownpetard]

68. Really? That's awful, to have something like that carry such a bad association.

I'm sorry to hear that.

[AnneD]

7. I love it.....

some guys can wear it some can't. Moee times than not, when I ask a guy what cologne he's wearing, it's Old Spice.

[hisownpetard]

70. Do you work at a hospice?

[AnneD]

76. Actually....

It has been younger guys that I have asked. I was shocked that some of the young guys were still wearing it. Maybe they were stealing it from their Dad-I don't know.

[hisownpetard]

79. As long as they're not stealing other stuff, too, from his medicine cabinet, I guess you're ok!

[AnneD]

84. Hey,

that happens too-more than you know. And then they share it with their friend. And of course their friend is allergic to it and it take me a valuable hour to getting to the truth:grr: Yeah, this has happened to me before.:eyes:

[hisownpetard]

87. It's the new epidemic, unfortunately. Scary.

[Fire Walk With Me]

8. I love the smell of Old Spice on the collar of my Members Only jacket.

The red one, that is.

[Deja Q]

9. Like this one?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIzvdSqsvDw

[hisownpetard]

12. Don't you mean, on your Nehru jacket??

[Fire Walk With Me]

17. Old Spice has been around longer than I have

:cry:

[hisownpetard]

22. I know. It was my grandfather's favorite (and I think he got the bottle from HIS father)...

[MrCoffee]

10. i'm an English Leather man, myself.

[hisownpetard]

13. Oh. my. God. Last time I heard that (or smelled that) I was on a date with a lifeguard,

in his father's Bonneville convertible!! Lord, what was that guy's name???

[Book Lover]

11. Useless fact for today:

Old Spice was originally marketed as a ladies purfume, though I don't right now recall the name it was sold under.

I still love Old Spice - reminds me of dear sweet Papa.

[Richard Steele]

15. I've been on the Spice for 25 years now...

I switched briefly to some stuff Michael Jordan was hawking,
but they stopped making it. :(

(No, I'm not a MJ fan- that stuff was just GREAT!)

[hisownpetard]

25. "...been on The Spice for 25 years now..." Well, it's gonna make recovery that much harder.

Someone will have to do an intervention.
Cold turkey.
Not another drop.
Are you willing to accept this gift, starting NOW?

[Richard Steele]

41. Hey- I don't have a problem! If you can't handle The Spice, maybe it's YOU that has the problem!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[hisownpetard]

43. OK, OK, calm down. I know, I know ' If you can't handle the Spice, get out of

the Visitors' Room.

[MilesColtrane]

58. You know what happens when you're on the spice for that long.

[Richard Steele]

88. It's worse than you think. You see my avatar?

That's an actual picture of me- I'm not wearing sunglasses! :rofl:

[lost-in-nj]

16. I do

but you knew that :)


it smells clean.....
what do you wear, nero??????

huh


lost

[mwdem]

18. My dad always wore it. It will forever remind me of hime.

He's been gone for 16 years now, but when I catch a whiff of it, I can remember exactly what he looked like when I was growing up. I miss him.:cry:

[lost-in-nj]

26. I know how you feel

:hug:
mines been gone 25 years.....
and he wore it to....



lost

[hisownpetard]

66. Amazing how a scent can bring a memory alive, instantly.

I'm glad yours are good ones.

[Connonym]

44. ditto

I found a bottle in the back of my mom's medicine cabinet and I told her that she'd better never throw it away.

[hisownpetard]

59. Yes. And for that exact reason, I don't think you'd want to date someone who smelled like your Dad.

That could lead to nasal confusion of the worst kind.

[pokerfan]

19. Soap and deodorant for me

I have a source of some local homemade traditional Castile Soap and Speed Stick for deodorant.

[hisownpetard]

69. That's my favorite - a natural clean. No artificial nothin'.

[sniffa]

24. that's all i wear

even if i don't shower, some old spice is going on.

[hisownpetard]

61. I don't think toe paste qualifies as a spice.

[KG]

27. Old spice is for wimps. Hai Karate, now there's a manly scent!

[hisownpetard]

63. Yeah, but I think John Belushi got the last bottle.

[I Have A Dream]

28. I do.

:hi:

[Missy Vixen]

29. I like it better than other colognes

It's not a bad scent. Let's face it, if I never have to smell Paco Rabanne/Polo/Drakkar Noir again, it'll be too soon.

Julie

[Jade Fox]

30. It ain't no Jade East.

:shrug:

[cordelia]

38. Jade East

Haven't thought about Jade East in years!

I remember getting that for Christmas when I was about 13 years old - it was on my wish list. Ha, that was one thing my parents could afford, what with it costing about $2.10 a quart.

[hisownpetard]

64. Wow. And for all you seniors who don't have a memory disorder yet: remember CANOE?

[trof]

31. "Old Spice means QUALITY, said the Captain to the bos'un.

So look for the bottle with the ship that sails the ocean!"
70s(?) TV commercial jingle.

Yeah, I still have some.

[hisownpetard]

33. Of course, I had to sing it... now it's in my head and won't get out!!

[trof]

Yo ho ho and a bottle of...Old Spice?

[hisownpetard]

35. Yours is probably 100% alcohol by now. Please, don't drink it...

[Scout]

32. can't help liking it....

my dad wears it ... he's 81!

[hisownpetard]

34. Fred Thompson won't leave home without it. nt

[Richard Steele]

46. That's a common misconception.

He's a genetic freak of nature; his body produces that scent naturally.

How else can you explain his ability to wander around in public
looking like the Creature from the Black Lagoon's pasty & confused grandpa,
and still SCORE with gold-digging silicone-enhanced bleach-tramps?

The SPICE has powers beyond your puny mortal understanding:

[hisownpetard]

48. That's not the only thing he produces. I think he produces a platinum credit card whenever his

well-endowed toddler on his arm says, "Waaaaaaaaah, Daddy, I want DAT!"

Also, a lot of sputum.

[hisownpetard]

71. Proves my point: You must be over 80 to properly wear OS.

[MissMillie]

36. I prefer English Leather

:hi:

My man wears English Leather or he wears nothing at all

[cordelia]

37. I do

My dad wore it, and wouldn't use anything else. Oh, how we tried.

Practically marinated himself in it.

But, he's gone many years now, and I still miss him, and his Old Spice.

[hisownpetard]

60. "Practically marinated himself in it." O, to think I almost missed reading this post!!!!!! hahahah

ahahahahhhhhhaaa!!

[Orsino]

39. Good stuff.

I don't wear it anymore, though, because it seems to be widely reviled these days.

[hisownpetard]

67. Hey, that would make a great screen-name: WidelyReviled. Can I steal it?

[Orsino]

85. That ranks right up there...

...with I. P. Freeleigh and Hugh G. Rection.

Or Faintly Macabre, if you're into The Phantom Tollbooth.

[StrongBad]

40. Their newer body wash scents & deodorants are great

I would agree with many here in saying that the classic cologne smell reminds me of older men because my grandfather wore it while growing up.

However, guys, seriously check out their fairly new line of body washes and deodorants. They are absolutely awesome and whenever a lady-friend gets a whiff of my skin they always compliment me.

I promise I'm not a paid corporate shill :)

[LibDemAlways]

42. For years my dad's sister sent him a bottle of

Old Spice for Christmas. He didn't have the heart to tell her he didn't use the stuff, and he would end up tossing it. The first Christmas after his sister passed away, he really missed that package and still misses it every Christmas - 19 years later.

[MaryBear]

45. Daddy!

Love it! Reminds me of my father.

I would wear it if I wanted to have that effect on a woman.

Cool her jets every time.

[Roon]

47. My step-father wears this

I mean, the guy is a millionaire but yet he wears this cheap shit. You know how humans are with smells, so I actually find it kind of comforting when I smell this. Yet, someone needs to turn him on to something better. So I have a love/hate relationship with old spice.

[Capn Sunshine]

50. I think I'm going to go get some-seriously

I'm an old dude so it probably fits. I'm so over cologne , so I'd get it for those odd times when I've been up way to late and find myself in the world without a shower or on a plane to Texas due to some horrible accidental combination of Tequila and medication.
Cause that's how I ROLL

[hisownpetard]

62. Old? You have to be over 80 to wear Old Spice - and be prepared. They 'card' you!

[alphafemale]

51. I have to go with reminds me of Dad too. So I like it.

He was a WWII Vet. He was a life-long, retired steel-worker, who'd lost part of his hand to machinery.

He'd been a hell-raiser. His never set crooked nose attested to that. He was secretly a softy. I knew that by the time I was three. Even though others quavered at his voice.

He was a Pittsurgh Pirates and Steelers Fan, and died at 84 the same day 3 Rivers Stadium was imploded. Feb 11, 2001.

He already despised Bush before that early date. In a way I'm glad he never witnessed what befell this country after 9/11/01 It would have broken his heart.

He wore Old Spice. So I like the smell. But it stirs nostalgia, not romance.

[Skittles]

52. I like it

:thumbsup:

[Kutjara]

53. "Old Spice: The Mark of a Man...

...whose mother still buys his aftershave."

[hisownpetard]

65. and cuts his meat for him at dinner.

[YankeyMCC]

54. There are people who Dont Like the smell?!?

That's the cologne I use when I use any.

[hisownpetard]

72. Have you noticed anyone sneering at you when you're out and about?

[YankeyMCC]

74. Well yeah...but there are so many other reasons why people would do that

and they do it even when I haven't dabbed a bit of Old Spice on that morning :shrug:

;)

[hisownpetard]

75. Well, actually, my experience says that men who use Old Spice never dab! They pour it into their

hands, smack their cheeks with it, rub some on their hair and, if there's any left over,
rub it on their chests. But, "dab"? I don't think so. They need to make sure it's all gone
by Christmas, when God knows how many people are going to give it to him, again.

[YankeyMCC]

77. Oh well that's bad with pretty much any scent...

I've had the same bottle for I think 2 years now.

[hisownpetard]

78. I admire your self-control. Good job, my friend.

[Midlodemocrat]

55. Love it. Reminds me of a dear friend who is no longer with us.

[hisownpetard]

73. Well, apparently Old Spice is good for:

- bringing back memories (some good, some bad) of men who have passed on;
- marinating;
- men whose wife/partner/parents/co-workers/children have a poorly developed sense of smell; and
- men over 80 who want to spruce up and put a spring in their step whilst bandying about town in their motor car,
seeking some female companionship.

That about right?

[AnneD]

80. Begging your pardon....

but I have a VERY, VERY, keen sense of smell (I was actually tested and scored high in the scent recognitions). Had I been gotten to earlier-I would have been one of those specialized chemists. Among the unusual smells I recognize...tornadoes (an ozone quality),sex (yes, I can smell what I know now is pheromones when I walk into a house (it doesn't have to be isolate to the bedroom) and certain infectious agents and some cancers. It is a mixed blessing because I work as a Nurse. I don't wear fragrances at work because I know some folks are hypersensitive to them (peanut butter can make me wretch when I have a migraine).

I personally like the orange citrus and spice blend of Old Spice. Hi Karate is an assault to my nose-I smell more alcohol than anything else-they use cheap ingredients. Men's colognes have greatly improved but Old Spice is the best of the early colognes. Old Spice is especially fragrant in the winter and colder month's. The other fragrances I like for men are YSL and Obsession. I confess I have not been by a counter for men in a while.

For myself I like Opium in the coldest winter, Lauren in the fall and Cool Water in the summer, Shalimar in the early spring. I have purchased some fragrances overseas that one cannot take out of the country (don't ask)and have shamelessly indulged myself with them. I was in heaven when I went to the sandalwood capital of the world Mysore, India.

I once watched a lady go about the floor of a library in a random manner. I thought she might be lost. When she finally stopped at my table and sheepishly ask what I was wearing. Said she had been tracking down the source of that wonderful smell (it was Lauren at the time). I laughed and told her I did that all the time, and understood. If I ask someone what they are wearing and I keep getting the same name-I buy it.

So don't prejudge those of us that enjoy Old Spice.

[hisownpetard]

81. I am humbled. Love your analysis, too. Please have your nose take a bow!

[AnneD]

83. My nose...

knows what it likes....Splash on a little OS and there's no telling what will happen. Put a little bay rum on and really keep them guessing.

I am glad I work with elementary school kids-they haven't discovered cologne yet. In middle school they marinate in it (combined with the musky smell of puberty-she shudders visibly). By high school, things tone down a bit.

[Mike Daniels]

56. Only aftershave I use

It's funny how many dates I went on where the girl caught a wiff of the scent and when I told her it was Old Spice I always got "oh my dad uses that".

[Fox Mulder]

82. It reminds me of my late grandfather.

He always wore Old Spice. I'll always love the smell for that very reason.

[Shell Beau]

86. My grandpa? Not me!

[Tommy_Carcetti]

90. Chris Matthews does...

Isn't that what he imagines his latest man-crush Fred Thompson to smell like?
