Anyone still wear original Old Spice?

post #1 of 16
Thread Starter 
I'm a younger guy and I just purchased the 4.2 oz EDC for $12. I love the smell of original Old Spice and I plan on wearing it quite often. Anyone else still wear this classic despite all of the fragrance offerings that are out there?

Once in a while. Classic man!

Every time I visit my dad I splash on a bit of old Spice just to remember my childhood. It it such a timeless classic.

Yea, but I've heard English Leather Spiced is closer to the original OS if that's what someone prefers.

I use to borrow my dads old spice when I was young and it really had a good spicy bite too it. A few years ago I repurchased it for old times sake and to my dismay it was weak in a watered down way and missing that spicy bite that I liked.

I know a few people on other threads have mentioned other scents that smelled like the original old spice but I cannot remember the names of the scents. Anyone have any ideas which ones?

To be honest, I have a vintage bottle of the (Shulton, Inc.) After Shave under the sink, and only seek it out to sniff on rare occasions. Both of my Grandfathers wore this, as did my Dad.

I don't wear it . . . out of respect.

I have it, and wear it occasionally.

Once in my youth, no longer.

Yes, I like it. Some bottles are better than others. As usual, really old vintage is best. Strangely, recent bottles are actually better than some of the horribly botched reformulations of the past ten years or so. It's the definition of timeless classic. The ultimate "daddy" scent. Go ahead and spring for the five bucks or whatever at your local drugstore. Belongs in any men's fragrance collection.

I wear it occasionally. I decant it into a cheap sprayer for ease of application, though.

I take it for a full wear a few times a year ...
I also have the shaving cream & roll on deodorant & use those more regularly ...
Lovers of Old Spice should try , Blue Stratos .
cheers

Not really but when I do it is fun to tell people that it was originally marketed to women

I still do and enjoy it, especially the EDT concentration.

This intrigued me as I had never heard of an EdT version.
