Old Spice

[radhead]

It's father's day this weekend. What better gift to give than Old Spice cologne?

Does anyone remember the old commercials with the clipper ships? They were all shot in rustic harbor towns.

They used to have their own music jingle. I wish I could remember how it sounded. It was sort of like a British folk tune.

I don't remember the guy. Was it like a sailor or fisherman returning to his wife, who waited for him at the door of their quaint cottage?

My Father wore Old Spice and Shaved with Old Spice Shaving Cream and I think that a bucket of dead fish would be preferable to ever smelling that stuff again.

The only thing worse is Aqua Velva!

My dad wouldn't wear something like this
You see he is allergic to perfume and fragrances
But however, I love the smell of it!

 

[radhead]

I like it too. It has a mild fragrance. Most are too harsh for me.

I don't wear any cologne. But this is one I wouldn't mind.

Old Spice = .

Sorry, just being honest!

Ah, Old Spice. (At first I thought you were talking about a member of the Spice Girls.)

When I was a kid that stuff was everywhere, drug stores, K-Mart, etc. When I smelled it, I thought it smelled like rubbing alcohol. (Yuck-o!) I associated it with a cheap gift to get for men that you really don't know well enough to get something nice.

99% of Father's Day gifts consist of either ties or Old Spice.

LOL! Exactly!

Don't they have a new version of Old Spice called "Red Zone" the deodorant or something like that? Does anyone know if it smells any better?

Fathers and husbands do love Old Spice as gifts!

Nahhh....the ultimate cheese in parfum or eau de toilette has got to be ... English Leather... and Brut has to come in a close second.

I used to hate Old Spice. You'd get the bottle and the little grey stopper thing would get lost and it'd evaporate or get spilled all over the place.

Hey, I can think of something worst than Old Spice AND Brut..."Grey Flannel." (At least I think that's what it's called.) I saw the stuff on sale at Christmastime for a really low price. I opened the bottle and sniffed it...now I know why it was on sale. (It was pretty bad smelling.) : (

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't purchase your guy the shower gel unless you want whatever room he goes into to become Old Spice haven for the next hour! So Strong we have to open windows. I won't buy it again!!!

I guess this really IS the thirties forum! I remember that commercial! It was one of my favorites! It brings back such great memories! Man were those the days or what!?
