New Spice

One of the adjustments John and I have had to make since moving over here is to our deodorants. There just aren't that many stick deodorants, but there are roll-ons and sprays. A month or so ago when I ran out of the stick I had brought with me, I purchased one of the Dove roll-on deodorants and didn't think much of it. It was a change for me, but not a big one.

John is more particular. He just ran out of his Old Spice stick. John doesn't like deodorants that are also antiperspirants because he has sensitive skin. Upon scouring the shelves he found that the only deodorant that met his standards was Lynx (you might know it in the US as Axe). Yeah, this is the deodorant body spray that has commercials showing a good smelling guy with girls mobbing him because his scent is so appealing.

Well, it really does smell good! I didn't realize John had gotten that deodorant (because of the name difference) until I told him he smelled nice and he said, "It's just like in the commercials!"

We went to a different chemist the other day and John said he was going to see if they carried Old Spice. I told him, "Don't, I like your new spice!"
