Try being stuck on a bus for 6 hours with Axe-spraying linebackers and no escape.

It doesn’t smell like “clean.” It smells like someone trying really hard to smell clean. I dated a football player who was obsessed with Axe. Every time I was around him, I’d start sneezing. I eventually told him I didn’t think it was a good idea that we keep dating. I swear, Axe made him smell like BO with confidence. So gross.

I couldn’t do it. I broke up with him because my sinuses deserved better.
Understood. When I was medically incarcerated, most the of male CNAs wore Axe, and I wanted to take an axe to them!
