A few months ago, we were at a supermarket with my mom, buying some stuff.

My mom needed an antiperspirant. When she was about to grab a black one, I heard a guy "helpfully" telling her that she was grabbing one "For Men™", that the ones "For Women™" were the pink ones.

I immediately looked at the guy like "lol what, who asked".

(My mom uses "men's" antiperspirants because she doesn't care about that, and they are usually cheaper than "women's")

Women get to smell like real things (vanilla, lavender) but men have to smell like concepts. What the fuck is "cool sport rush"?

I only use straight razors to shave my balls. /jk

You may enjoy Versace Eros, very pleasant herbal opening.

That's interesting. I don't usually use designer brands, but I looked it up and Dossier makes an off-brand dupe. I wonder how accurate it is.

Top: Mint, Green Apple, Lemon

Middle: Geranium, Cedarwood, Vetiver

Base: Vanilla, Amber, Tonka bean

It looks like it's only missing the oakmoss. And it substitutes amber for ambergris, and switches a couple middle and base notes.

Seems nice though, I like the middle and base notes. Mint and lemon aren't really my cup of tea though. If it was sage and bergamot I'd be all about it!
