I smell weird. Recent Development

[rayfieldclement]

Don't use ANY musk scented products.

 

[wirednuts]

I've encountered some colognes that smell great in the bottle...but on me, they smell like insecticide...I just avoid MOST scents beyond my anti-perspirant.

me too.

op, look into old spice products. i am not kidding. get the body wash from menards for cheap and use their deodorant too. their "after hours" scent is amazing. so is the fiji scents.

i guarantee you will get girls saying to you "mmm you smell so good!"

then if i go out, i spray on a little adidas cologne... its cheap and smells great

could be worse.

you could smell like schneiderguy.

9/10 women agree that schneiderguy's musk makes them horny.

Nah, can't stand Old Spice. Too...fragrant.

9/10 women agree that schneiderguy's "musk" makes them vomit...but the gay guys flock to him.

IMHO while scented body wash is better than smelling like despair soaked in bacon grease, the scents play to the lowest common denominator since it pretty much smells good/ok on anyone. I think that when you find a cologne that you like, and works on your skin, it's a bit more striking. I look at it like this, most people look good in blue but if EVERYONE was wearing a blue shirt it would get pretty dull. But if you are the ONE person wearing something other than blue because it works best for YOU, then it makes you stand out.

Am I saying cologne will get you chicks? Hell no.

What I'm saying is, just like having my own sense of style, having a signature scent is something I like to do since it helps make a lasting impression.

I shower everyday with face lotion, use old spice shaving cream, and body wash.

You're a girl, right? Please tell me you're a girl.

You guys enjoy smearing that aluminum all over your skin? 😵 I quit using deodorant a long time ago...but then again I don't really stink.

Same here. I use castile soap for deodorant, as well as for soap/shampoo/laundry detergent.

Yes, you do. It's just not easy to smell one's self.

 

[shortylickens]

Increase you manganese intake.
Consider peppermint oil pills.

Yes, you do. It's just not easy to smell one's self.

Hmm you guys might be right on second thought... 😳 I had to quit using deodorant because it made me itch real bad.

Yeah 1 girl will say that and everyone else will have to suffer through your obnoxious chemical odors just so you can have a .1% chance of getting laid with whatever slut is into your nasty cheap cologne.

That may have been a little harsh but I really hate all this old spice and axe stuff that people feel the need to douse themselves in. I don't want to smell you period.

Try stopping slathering yourself in chemicals. Unless you have a really dirty job, there is no reason to use lotion, shaving cream etc.
Shower in water only, wash your hair every second day instead of every day, use a deodorant, and wash your hands in soap only.
Your body is perfectly capable of functioning without 4 different types of lotion applied to it every day.
Try this for a week or two.

Uhh, "water only?" You do realize that his "body wash" is just liquid soap, right? You basically told him not to use soap when showering but he can use it on his hands. 😕

 

[Leros]

People told me I smelled weird when I started using Old Spice body wash. I stopped using it and they said I smelled normal again. Maybe its the Old Spice?

 

[Lanyap]

Chew it...allegedly, the synthetic chlorophyll is supposed to help absorb odors...I'm not a kemest...so I don't know HOW it's supposed to work, but, at least in my friend's foot odor case...it worked. :shrug:

It must be true. :thumbsup:

Swear by that stuff.

I have a pair of jeans that, even after washing them, always smell vaguely of sourdough. Have since I bought them. It's kind of sad, because they're really comfortable and fit pretty good.

The same thing happened to me, along with breaking out and rashes, so I can only use a few types/brands. Try clear, unscented varieties like Mitchum.

 

[boomhower]

I've never had this problem before. Yea, I can use deoderant, but I think that's missing the point. That merely masks this musk.

Then your wearing anti-persperrant right?

 

[OverVolt]

Anti-persperant is the stuff with Aluminum, so I don't wear it.

I wear deodorant. You gotta do something though. A shower lasts you 2-4 hours in the summer.

try womens then. dont be embarrassed about it. i tried degree once and it gave me a huge rash... it was awful and i wont ever buy that stuff again.

old spice has been tops for me. i dont always buy it cause its pricey, but i always go back to it and i always feel the most confident when i use it. i know they have gimmicky ads, but the product is the real deal. old spice never used to be a fad, it was always trusted.

I have pretty dry skin in general. If the scratching breaks the skin, I usually use a first aid ointment with aloe, in lieu of antiperspirant, for a couple of days. (Stand back!)

If it doesn't clear it up in a couple of days, it may be time for some lamisil.

(Jock itch? On your armpit? It's more likely than you think. I'm not saying it's happened to me, but I know this guy...)

 

[OverVolt]

Clear gel or clear soft solids are the way to go with minimum scents.

Not all of them, if you dig around and find some not-famous brands you can get anti-persperant without alum.
