IT BEGINS

I liked the original ads but..

man I just don't care anymore.

Artreus

Although I guess posting in the thread about how much I don't care is lame so I am going to CONTRIBUTE by saying the only deodorant I have in the house right now is old spice because I lost my other one.

Yep, stone cold don't give a fuck.

I never liked the ads. They always seemed like a parody of lifestyle advertising that simultaneously wasn't a parody at all.

Ferrus

I don't even know how Old Spice smells (Herp derp needs to be imported from the UK I believe) but I certainly enjoy their ads.
A very well executed marketing scheme if nothing else.

Personally I'm more of a Baldessarini guy.

I switched to Old Spice after taking a poll of attractive women. It's because it reminded them of fathers and grandfathers and shit.

This just in: Babes want to have sex with their dads. More at 11.

Tox

I use Axe. Because I've met several ladies who like the way it smells.

Protip: There are a lot of awful chemical deodorants out there.

If you're not using a decent cologne, you might as well go for the really cheap deos.

I am in favor of their ads. Even with this, it still hasn't crossed the line into blatant pandering or trying too hard.

But I do hate the ads that Old Spice has inspired. So many companies are aiming for over-the-top absurdism, but the writing isn't as good and there isn't any heart there. I think some razor or shaving cream company has this young guy in a suit doing a toned down version of the gimmick.

I wear old spice.

The original Isaiah ad is still the tits. The newer one less so.

I still love that they are all single shot ads with traditional FX though.

That settles it then. I guess I have to wear socks and sandals together and take girls on family roadtrips.

I use Old Spice.

But I used Old Spice before the ads. The ads are amusing, but I've just always used that stuff anyway.

Classic is still my Dad's choice of deodorant, but it doesn't come in an antiperspirant and I don't want to smell like my Dad.

what? gross. meet better ladies.

This "feud" is taking a serious toll on my twitter feed.

OhtheVogonity

I feel I need a more cohesive scent strategy. I have lavender shave cream, sandalwood aftershave and I use old spice classic deodorant. Has got to be confusing for those sexual predators out there.

So, no?

More expensive deodorants aren't really better than the cheap ones.
Actually, the best combo for good smell is probably cologne + some odorless antibacterial spray.

TheySlashThem

every man in my family has always used old spice

picked it up from our grandfather

oddly enough my sisters tell me they can't date anyone who wears it because it smells like family

Blake T

Some search YouTube for 'Eric bana fabio' and see if there are any hits.

I Win Swordfights

I use English Leather aftershave, just like my daddy and his grandpa.

I use gillette clear gel cool wave gel deodorant

Personally, I just splash a bit of bourbon under my chin and on my shirt in a few places.

Melding

And not like last christmas.

Centipede Damascus

(Who's the major in this scenario?)

Melding

(i don't know.)

Ferrus

Say what you will but Old Spice at least manages to make their extremely stereotypical portrayal of women (Diamonds, horses etc.) funny.
Unlike Axe.

STATE OF THE ART ROBOT

Best Old Spice guy is Bruce Campbell.

Centipede Damascus

(Also isn't it usually the mayor who'd be on your ass?)

slow

Melding
