I'm a female who uses Axe because of the gender neutral smell, just like you said. No other deodorant worked for me at all and my perspiration was stronger than a mans. Axe is the only one that managed to cover it up really well - it is the absolute BEST.
Oh, God, I can't believe I was once an AXE user! I've evolved. I shower with Yardley Old English Lavendar and use Alfred Sung deodorant and cologne. Manly smell, rich in lavender, sandalwood and cedar. Light application during day, and extra spritz at night.
You're right, Cindy, it IS a funny thread. I smelled Jean Nate on an elderly lady the other day. I can't believe that women still wear that horrific scent. Every time I smell it I think of Bride of Frankenstein.

I luv using axe deoderant and/or body spray cuz it makes me feel refreshed. My girlfriend luvs it too! She says that it makes her feel energized. I really liked the axe touch but now it's gone... So I use axe essence now. Personally I think that cologue is my #1 choice but axe body spray is a close second!

true story:
i was wearing axe marine; and was purchasing an item at a local pharmacy when this elderly lady turned to me and said "Wooow what is that ur wearing!!" she was soo impressed and i said axe. she said she will tell her husband about it. ok she's a bit older (am not old! lol) but there must be some kind of thread of truth to axe commercials. also a girl told me once that everything on the commercial is true except girls go though it in their MINDS.and rarely act it out

Axe deoderant has a very foul smell or I should say stench. It's cheap smelling and gives headaches. Teens wear it like cologne because it is cheap unlike good quality colognes that men wear.

lol, this is a funny thread. What is a gender neutral smell?
I wonder if one can win a law suit for being fired for smelling like the opposite sex.

Ken,
Is a rancid polecat is gender neutral? Or do you use it because it has a manly scent?
