Delightful and nostril warming body spray
Written: Apr 23 '06
Pros:Great smell, great on any clothing items, long lasting
Cons:Somewhat clashes with deodorants, even the Voodoo roll on
The Bottom Line: Voodoo is a great smell that unfortunately is hard to find a roll on that fully compliments the spray.
I have been a long time user of Axe and essentially body sprays in general. I find that sometimes deodorant, just doesn't do it all of the time. And if you are a man, you know what I'm talking about. We just have some horrible body odors, that you just can't cover up by putting deodorant all over our bodies.
Axe has been forever a part of my life ever since going through basic training. We used to all spray this stuff on in such heavy doses, that our dormitory smelled like an Axe factory every time we got the opportunity to take a shower. I don't think that the smell ever went away, and when I got out of basic, I swear, I couldn't use the stuff for the longest time. But, it's been a while now, and I love it all over again.
Voodoo in general
Voodoo is a great fragrance, that's long lasting, and is quite noticeable. It's one of those deodorizing sprays that you just have to keep on smelling. While it doesn't really go well with my normal deodorant, I don't wear this one all that often, however, when I do, I take advantage and hose it on. I think that the smell is attractive and fragrant, while not being all that overpowering. It is great to spray on your clothing just before going out, as it really will linger somewhat.
Ingredients
SD alcohol, 40-B9Alcohol Denat), Butane, Hydrofluorocarbon 152A, Fragrance (Parfum), Isopropyl Myristate
How the ladies like it???
My wife doesn't really think this product is all that much different that Tsunami by Axe, however, I think it's quite a bit different. I have had quite a few women tell me that I smell wonderful, even in the presence of my wife. Many have asked what type of cologne I am wearing so that they could purchase it for their men. I find that it's best if sprayed on your clothing to make it that much more apparent to others around you, including women.
Personal Warnings
DO NOT, and I must repeat, DO NOT put this under your arms if you for some reason have cut yourself or anything of that nature. This goes for pretty much anywhere on your body, including places that you just got pierced or anything like that. This stuff BURNS like crazy, and even in areas that you just shaved, you can definitely feel the alcohol in it burning through your skin. Personally, I love the smell, but if you use too much, it can definitely cause you a little bit of pain. While the pain is generally very shortlived, I can only imagine how bad it would feel if you had some really bad sunburn... ouch!
As a deodorant
This is definitely not the product that you want as a deodorant. It doesn't really work very well, and the smell is somewhat short lived. If you want to use it for the temporary covering up of odors, Axe is more than adequate, however, a more long term solution, definitely will not work. You'll notice that the smell is virtually gone after about 8 hours or after a good workout. You can pretty much smell your body odor through the spray the entire time.
As a body spray
As a body spray, which is really the intended purpose of the product anyway, it's great. It covers up the mild smells that your body creates, outside of your armpits. I don't recommend spraying it down on your crotchal regions, however, if you don't have any baby powder available, this will do the trick to cover up any smells that you need to eliminate fairly quickly. However, it does burn on certain man parts, so be gentle with it's use.
I generally don't use it as a body spray all that much, but more as a clothing spray. I find that it somewhat clashes with many deodorants, including the roll on of the same name. I have found that it's best enjoyed on outer garments, such as coats, gloves, shoes, and just allowing other fragrances to do their magic after those are removed. I wear this in combination with Tsunami on my body, as I have found the combination of the two, really comes together.
Final Thoughts
Axe is one of the best body spray products out there. If you are planning on using it for a body spray that just compliments your deodorant, this is definitely the product for you. However, if you are thinking that you should use this in order to eliminate your body odor altogether, and use it under your arms, it's not going to work. There's no anti-perspirant in this product, so you are going to still sweat from your armpits, and you are still going to produce odor, which over time will eliminate the smell of the Axe product.
Voodoo is a great spray if you can find a deodorant that compliments it. Otherwise you can use it to spray on your clothing and it is pretty near perfect as you can't really smell your deodorant through a lot of clothing anyway. For those closer moments, I would either just go with all Voodoo, and no roll on deodorant or don't use it at all. I have found that for very short periods of time, this will work more than fine as an underarm spray, but that's just a very short period of time, max maybe 1-2 hours. So for a makeout session, it would be more than adequate enough. However for a dinner and a movie and then a makeout, you are more than pushing your luck and it's going to fail on you for sure.
