Axe Body Spray

Released July, 2002
The Pros:Inexpensive as a cologne. A lot of variety in scents. Widely available.

#axe_body_spray Hey!!! There was this guy at the gym I ran into that was wearing something I didn't recognize and he said Malizia Sport. Wanting to purchase it for my man, I looked it up, found it on ebay and saw a gang of scents. There are two different sports and others. Which scents do you suggest? Thanks...

#axe_body_spray News Flash: I am a forma Axe user, and it's true the scent do not last. If you need a spray that lasts, try Malizia. I was recently turned on to the Malizia body spray (Made In Italy) by a friend, which I purchased off e-Bay. MAN! This body spray is very, very nice, much nicer than AXE. I think Malizia is an import and only avaliable on e-bay. I think every AXE user look for something better the AXE should try the Malizia spray. (I LOVE IT... AWESOME SPRAY) AAAAAAAAAAA+
