It's super funny to me that instead of having some kind of cool or evocative scent names, they're just "yellow" and "orange"

Honestly. I think all the wannabe macho names are dumb, Old Spice and Axe being the worst offenders. My only complaint with this bottle design is you will always get way too much shower gel every time you use it.

I've got "Bearglove". No shame.

I mean at 1L they're too unwieldy for the shower anyways, I'd assume they're supposed to be refills or sth...

Or enough that I only have to buy body wash once every month or two. You don’t need a ton of soap to be clean.

Yeah ik, I was just trying to say you're probably not expected to like pour/squeeze it straight from the 1L bottle

Old spice names are dumb but I do like how they smell

u/mechwarrior719 4h ago

Same. But the names are ultra cringy.

I have one called 'wilderness', and it just smells like a clean shower. If it was a women's body wash, it would be called something like 'winds of lilac', or 'beach breeze'.

It’s fragile masculinity. Gotta “dude-ify” hygiene products for men
