I know a chick who once said:

Axe: Smell like a boy
Old Spice: Smell like a man

*shrug*

I tried Axe stuff once and it smelled too girly to me. I've been Old Spice 100% for 5 years now. Body wash, body spray, and deodorant.

The gels physically tore up my skin, as well as cloth, as they made little solid chunks after absorbing some sweat. They're a bad marketing gimmick. I've been using Right Guard Sport for years, now. I actually found Kiss My Face's unscented to work the best of any, but it tends to be expensive, and hard to find.

I have been using that speed stick gel for years and I do not have solid little chunks under my arms. They aren't marketing, different people just react different. I don't like solid-stick ones because of what you said.

For some reason, Speed Stick gives me rashes in my arm-pits when I use it. I use to use it when I was younger but when I got older it gave me rashes.

Adidas cotton-tech stuff, mainly in women's sticks. You may be a pussy, but no aluminum.

Amusing commercials aside, I really like Old Spice swagger. The girl seems to like the scent, too.
