Alternative to body spray?

Started this discussion. Last reply by Nick H Jul 28, 2012. 26 Replies

When I'm not dressing up I usually use a mild scent of Axe body spray to smell fresh all day. What's a more manly alternative that keeps me smelling fresh but not strong like a cologne? This is more…Continue

"Thanks everybody for all the input. I only use a little bit as I'm borderline OCD about being clean. I use soap that is fresh but not too strong and as for the body spray, a very light spritz so as not to be overbearing with the scent. I'm…"

"hey, does your baking soda deodorant mixture just suppress body odor, or will it help cut down on sweat in the pits?"

"whatever you decide on: less is more better. i think i read a quote somewhere else here in AoM, something to the effect of: colognes/perfumes should be a reward for intimacy, not an announcement of a pending arrival."

Kilted Bear replied to Nate Thurbee's discussion Alternative to body spray?
"Talking about the natural scent of sweat my wife loves for me to not wear anything so that at the end of the day I have nothing but that natural smell. I agree that washing good and then allow natural to take place."

"     I buy scented oils. My favorite is sandalwood. I don't buy the super expensive stuff - you can really go down an expensive rabbit hole looking for an authentic oil, and I suppose there may be some value in that, but…"

Rebekah replied to Nate Thurbee's discussion Alternative to body spray?
"There are some. Usually, they're because it relates to the work (food service, for example) or they're very worried about not accommodating an employee's sensitivity. Americans, of course, aren't good at doing anything half-way,…"

"In Canada many work places are "scent-free' and perfumes/colognes are treated with the same 'respect' as cigarettes. Not sure if you guys have that in the US."

Nick H replied to Nate Thurbee's discussion Alternative to body spray?
"Most women I've met say they prefer a man to smell 'clean'. Although a few also like a mild scent that is only detectable when close."

Chuck Knight replied to Nate Thurbee's discussion Alternative to body spray?
"Absolutely nothing.  Best scent ever.   I am one of those people who reacts very badly to aromas.  The only thing worse than women's perfumes is men's colognes.  They're horrible, and make me feel genuinely…"

These two questions underlie and inform every social arrangement from the resolution of schoolyard squabbles to the meta-structure of human societies. They are also the basis of political philosophy. Professor Tamar Gendler uses the work of three titans of the discipline, Thomas Hobbes, John Rawls, and Robert Nozick, as a lens to guide us through the taut debate about the role of…See More
