I do agree with you that Axe is vile, and I use a lightly scented deodorant of a different brand myself ... but this notion that wearing an actual perfume every day is the norm for adult men is frankly ridiculous.

Ah no, I agree that many adult (men) don't wear perfume every day. But a unscented/lightly scented deodorant is not at all the same as a "deodorant+perfume" combo which Axe sells and the other commenters seemed to be talking about.

Do you have a link to such an Axe "deodorant+perfume" combo? Because I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing.

Literally every axe product is what I'm talking about, most deodorants try to be at least somewhat discreet but Axe's whole marketing schtick is "put this on and the overpowering smell will mind-control hoards of women into trying to get with you"

Oh right, so the same Axe as I had in mind then. Yeah, none of them smell good.
