I went to le Walmart and saw a red bottle... popped the cap and sniffed. Was awesome. Bought it. Also bought some old spice deodorant/antiperspirant.
Took me a shower this morning, and by the gods, it's 4:05 in the PM and I still smell like I just got out of the shower.
IT'S MAGICAL.
It's not a perfume smell so much as it's a fresh smell. Close up, it sort of smells perfumey, but in like a 1 foot bubble, it translates as fresh soap smell, which makes me feel fresher even when I'm leaking slime. No other body soap has been able to deceive me so effectively. It's a winner.

I've always enjoyed that fresh out of the shower smell. There's a lot of fragrances that are meant to smell soapy, and so actually do smell like you just got out of the shower. Mugler Cologne is one such fragrance, and almost any Prada fragrance as well. I used to not be a fan of the actual Old Spice fragrance, but it's not bad. I use Gucci Envy, which has that same barbershop kind of vibe, but more modern.
