Old Spice in Australia and New Zealand: Isaiah Mustafa
Apparently Old Spice smells…
even sweeter than you average sun-scorched, sea-salted Australian man-sweat…
Hello Ladies…
I’ll get back to to you with a review.

Try Old Spice and vintage Opium side by side, you’ll be surprised

OMG funny! I LOVE Isaiah Mustafa, and all the Old Spice commercials, but my favorite has to be the very first one. I fall out of my chair giggling at “I’m on a horse”.
Old Spice is my sentimental favorite of men’s fragrances – my first boyfriend wore it, and my uncle did too, along with Canoe (my second favorite).

I wish I had smelled the original canoe. Current formulation seems a little thin to me.

Canoe was actually the men’s counterpart to Ambush, my signature fragrance of early teenhood. Per someone who used to work for Dana Perfumes, it was a diluted version of Ambush.

Thanks for the tonic, Portia! These ads even counter the effects of stomach flu (can’t laugh too hard, though)! I don’t think we’ve ever had this kind of old spice stateside.

I should have said “Thanks for the tonic Jordan and Portia!” Just have to watch it again.

Hello Ladies…
Ah, I loved these. I swear I got a waft of Old Spice while watching these. I wonder if Aussie/Kiwi Old Spice smells the same as US Old Spice? My Dad used to wear old spice. Unfortunately, he was rather short and portly.
Thanks for the giggles.

I think we’ve all had Old Spice in the cupboard at one time or another. It’s thinner now but stiill smells really good. If I didn’t have so much fabulous choice it would get more wear.

I am rustling up a spicy review for APJ as we speak. Avid readers, you also have advance notice of an upcoming draw.

Old Spice is AWESOME. Have you tried it next to Opium (women)? Similarities are disturbing.
