Thomas H5 days agofirst ad in a long period in my life that amused me so much I think I'm actually going to buy the stuff. only other ad that has gotten me to buy their product consciously is Old Spice.
― how's life, Tuesday, 27 September 2016 14:46 (seven years ago) link
I have heard tell a couple of the Old Spice products smell fine, and I have to admit their rebranding was less obnoxious than some other brands. I really did think "this smells like old men" and even "this smells like douchebag bros in their 20s" is probably a better smell than old man smell.
― dr. mercurio arboria (mh 😏), Tuesday, 27 September 2016 14:50 (seven years ago) link
Yeah, I used to use the old man Old Spice until a woman told me I smelled like her dead grandfather. I still use that brand but one of the sporty scents, not a Game of Thrones scent.

legit don't understand how anyone can use a scented deodorant, they all smell nauseating to me. Unscented Arm & Hammer all the way.

I was intrigued by cologne stuff when I was a kid because, for some reason, my dad ended up with a handful of bottles that came from my great-grandfather's possessions several years after he died. I'm trying to remember what one bottle was, but there were definitely Brut and Hai Karate in there.

My starter cologne was this horrible thing from the 60s or 70s that smelled of straight-up lime.
― how's life, Tuesday, 27 September 2016 15:06 (seven years ago) link
it's kind of an interesting thing that even Target or Walgreens has men's cologne now that's not marketed as aftershave and actually costs $40+
would expensive (well, not drugstore shelf-priced) cologne be more of an effete or upper class things decades ago, or even not really manly?

Cologne I can remember wearing: CKOne, CK Contradiction, OP Juice, Emporio Armani, Perry Ellis 360. This all petered out before I finished college. Wouldn't mind having a scent on hand, but also don't feel like trying out cologne.

I briefly used Brut deodorant in junior high school, before switching to Right Guard. I think I liked the forest green cap on the Brut can more than I liked the smell.

Still use Brut. Costs a dollar and it's one of the few roll-ons in the pretty-man aisle.

Attention — Duke Cannon is here to airlift your grooming regimen outta the wasteland of chemical-laden soaps and fancy-pants products. This is no-nonsense stuff designed with unfussy guys in mind — guys that work hard and get dirty but still value putting their best face forward. Duke’s products and designs depart from anything you’ll find in the aisle of a convenience store, instead opting for a military-inspired, military-tested range of hygiene essentials. The refreshing minty blast of the Cold Shower cubes feels like a polar plunge, perfect after a grueling workday. And the textured scrubber found in their tactical soap bundle is tough enough to whisk away the effects of even the dirtiest jobs. Best of all, Duke Cannon is committed to giving back, partnering with organizations like Honor Flight to directly support the brave and bright men and women of the armed forces. Well, don’t just sit there. Hop to it...

I feel nothing but pity for that poor ad copywriter who was asked to "give us some ultra-masculine copy, straight up he-man, balls-to-the-wall stuff, you know, but genuine. oh, and work in the word 'tactical' if you can. the guys we're targeting love tactical crap".

Being a ragtag group of highly experienced whiskey drinkers, we can safely say that Norlan’s built one the best looking, most sophisticated whiskey glasses on the planet. Not only is it eye-catching enough for Indiana Jones to sprint through a Mayan mineshaft for, but it also improves your whiskey’s taste and smell, finally allowing you to experience all those smooth caramelly notes the experts talk about. The team of industrial designers, fluid dynamics experts, and master distillers who built this glass spent a year and a half optimizing it for aeration and aroma. Three dozen prototypes and over $800k on Kickstarter later they finally held a glass that lived up their standards.
It works like this: protrusions in the bottom of the Norlan’s interior make whiskey swirl like a natural wave, giving it more contact with the air, and enriching its flavor. The glass’s shape, meanwhile, focuses the whiskey’s aroma into your nose while diffusing its stinging alcoholic bite away from your face. The end result lets you savor your whiskey’s complexities like a true connoisseur while sipping from a stylish glass sure to be the coolest looking thing on your bar cart. So sit back, relax, and savor. Now might be just the right time to start that whiskey collection you’ve been thinking about.
