Do you find Old Spice to have too much spice?

Question

I bought Old Spice after shave like a month ago. After I first used it, that stuff gave me a headache.

The second time I used it, it made my skin feel oily. When I put it on my face, it stings like hell.

At a glance, Old Spice smelled great, but when I put it on, I disliked the way it smelled. It reminded me of "Brut". To me, they both smell the same.

Now, I use Aqua Velva and I think it's better.

Answer 1

I don't like that smell! Try something new. Bath & Body works carries nice stuff for men. My partner uses it and he likes the smell and the feel of it I think it's the bigelow brand

Answer 2

I can't speak from personal experience because I am a woman but... I love the smell of Old Spice it reminds me of my Daddy! I think the smell is great but I have never tried to apply it of course so it may be a whole nother story that way. I am sorry it doesn't work for you but use what works. I have never heard of Aqua Velva...I will have to seek it out and smell that. Good luck!

Answer 3

You might want to spend a little more, and maybe look online for some designer bargains. I like Old Spice but it is not for everyone. Brut and AV are old school. Time for an upgrade. Sample at the stores.

Answer 4

I hate Old Spice. Mean men I knew growing up always wore it, so I have a bad association with it. It smells cheap, anyway.
Try Halston Z-14. It is reasonable, sexy, and can be found at Marshall's or Ross for cheap.

Answer 5

old spice is so 10 years ago, get with the times olga. it is not far out, solid and right on, anymore

Answer 6

I can't say I disagree with what you have to say. It is too much spice .. and all the rest. Good Luck ! :)
