      Can confirm, I do this for shampoo, conditioner and body wash too.

      I get to smell like fruit and shit instead of “pleasant chemicals”

        Hmm should I smell like fresh ginger and lemongrass or gasoline and gunpowder.

        Now I really want to make Piperonal since it apparently smells really good. I just lack money, equipment and skill.

        Also I don’t know how legal that would be since it could be used as a MDMA precursor and even if it’s legal I don’t really want to get the house of my parents raided.

        I’m a generally masculine-presenting cis guy and I’ve never liked cologney smells. My favorite deodorant all my adult life has been one from the women’s section that has a picture of cucumbers on it. The scent is subtle, not overwhelmingly chemical or perfumey, it keeps the B.O. at bay, and nobody really notices it but me.

      I’m allergic to the scents in women’s deodorant. I get hives. I use a pleasant (imo) smelling old spice and it is great. Especially because I sweat a LOT.

        Are you sure it’s the scents and it’s deodorant, and not antiperspirant? I have trouble with antiperspirant but deodorant is fine.

    I’m a man and I’d much rather smell like vanilla and passionfruit. I don’t need more help to smell like fuel.

      Exactly. Just go out on the ramp and check the fuel sumps and oil. There, now you’ll smell like 100LL and plane engine all day.

    Old Spice F-35 is my favorite scent.

    Some men are so insecure they literally think washing their butthole is gay. No surprise marketing involves 'splosions, fighter jets, dinosaurs etc.

        I’ve seen and read enough credible evidence to suggest someone out there feels this way. Even if it is a joke, things like brushing and flossing and even washing your hands after using the bathroom are controversial for a ton of people. Marketing is real important for encouraging these people to be better.

        I literally know a guy at college who definitely was serious about the “washing ass is gay” thing.

        He didn’t keep a lot of friends. Or relationships…

      I use goat milk soap and I’ve been getting honeysuckle, lavender, prairie moss, dogwood, all kinds of flowery scents. I love studying botany and smelling these soaps reminds me of some of the local flowers around me. Never had any person accuse me of smelling like a woman or smelling “gay” lol, but I totally agree with your comment. I think real, normal people just like when you smell good, regardless of the scent. The “men should only wear turpentine-and-axel-grease-scented deodorants” Monday is only held in the minds of insecure looney tunes

    I hate those manly male scents for true men™ so much. I’ve now switched to odorless deodorant which is so much more expensive but it’s worth it. And when I want to smell nice, I use a perfume.

    I stopped using women’s antiperspirants because the scents would make my armpits break out in hives and it wouldn’t stop my ungodly sweat. I use some kind of old spice that’s a gel stick. Can’t remember the exact scent lol. It works great, especially for underboob sweat. The smell isn’t bad either. 10/10 would recommend for women who are super sweaty like me

    I like Fruity smells too! I have one now that smells kinda like a SweetTart candy but it’s called Wolfthorne and is aggressively masculine in the packaging and such lol

    Unsented roll on, because the smells they add to make it smells good actually make you stink more towards the end of the day. The white powder ones ruin shirts and Clough pores.

      Lol, rose-scented shea butter, starch and baking soda deodorant all the way baby. You apply it once a day, twice at most, it moisturizes and nourishes your skin, lasts all day, there’s no plastic and you get to laugh in the face of fragile masculinity.

    I just bought a bathbomb called black rose frome Lush. My girlfriend approved but she wasn’t the one using it.

    A bathtub, chocolate, and wine. Guys listen, ladies have it all figured out. Treat yourself.

    I wonder how much of my preference was advertising and upbringing, but as a man I do prefer to use the male scents almost every time.

    Change “men” into “boys” and it’s accurate.
