Probably, but Smelling of money would be even more effective.

I always chuckled at their other ad, buy two cans, combine and make 3. Almost as good as the "repeat as necessary" instruction on shampoo.

I find them insulting

Do they really think we are that stupid to belive one spray of that crap and we are instantly irresistible to women.

Yeah, I find them offensive. And pretty much any advert along a similar vein.

Having said that, I did have a weirdo housemate once who obviously believed them, as every day a whole crop duster's worth would be used and the house would reek of teenage desperation. I did just about manage to stop myself explaining that no amount of it would help...

The Coca-Cola Zero adverts I also despise- a desperate attempt to be cool and manly, but they're so cheesy it's unbelievable. I would have loved to have been in the meeting where somebody came up with the "innovative idea" of doing a half-arsed job of copying Pepsi's idea of some 15 years earlier- making a diet drink appeal to men.

The one that puzzles me is the one for women's deoderant or conditioner that says

" infuse your clothes with the smell of White diamond and Lotus flower!

WTF do white diamonds smell like?

Not so good if the girl prefers Galaxy... best use one bar for each armpit.

It does have something to it, they are really nice smells, and because they are so strong generally a female will then link that smell to that particular male - don't think the irresistble aspect is very believable

With the Lynx adverts the stuff generally smells awful (and more to the point doesnt work as deodorant), but I just enjoy the visuals

Lets face it, there are some pretty stunning women in them, though in the 1+2=3 I often find myself thinking -

Actually, the 2 were pretty damn attractive already and I'd rather have those 2 (together of course!) than the "3"


All time fave is "Billions" though..........

You are having a laugh? They often smell cheap and nasty...I much prefer a good old fashioned deo, and the man's natural smell (well as long as he's washed biggrin ) And then just a touch or aftershave, so you have to snuggle in to smell it cloud9

Surely another reason not to buy them....You could be linked with 2, 3 or maybe 50 guys eek

Funny really, for you the idea of snuggling into a man and sniffing him is your idea of heaven. For me that'd be a nightmare. Snuggling into a man as he cuts the cheese then sniffing it? Why would anyone want that? Aah I suppose it's the the difference between men and women.

Why does anyone use body sprays anyway? I mean you get the same smell from an anti persperant with the added bonus of that it stops you sweating? Do body spray users not mind sweating or do they use an odourless anti-persperant as well and therefore pay twice?
