    I'm not quite familiar with how Axe smells. but there is a guy at work who always smells so freaking good, but it's a very light scent, not used as a marinade. and I have a tendency to sniff him and say, you smell good, and he says, thanks, and I sniff him some more. it is enough to make me want to ravish him in the backroom, but that also has to do with his bitter sarcastic wit and willingness to look like a fool, all while smelling amazing.

    @andromache: Oh dear. I once sniffed one of my guy friends and as I was inhaling the goodness he informed me it was Axe. What. The. Hell? So, the stuff actually smells good, I just hate the ads. And myself for liking the product. Stupid stupid nose.

    Seriously, when I am around a dude in Axe I require a functional face mask. Or nose plugs. Don't use it in lieu of BATHING, boys.

    @Lisabel (ne: Dagnabbit): I was recently dining al fresco and a young man walked past the restaurant, lifted up his shirt, and sprayed Axe all over his torso. It was at least 10 seconds of continuous spraying. It left a lingering cloud of ickiness. It was the opposite of sexy, which I think might have been his intention...

    I do have a thing for men in suits, but on seeing a man in a suit, I have never felt the desire to put on a veil and expose my stomach and swarm around him with three of my closest identical friends.

    It's more fun (when you have a particular man in a suit) to hint at something scandalous and watch him get all flustered before he has to act professional. Grade A entertainment, there.

    Ugh. My boyfriend is a tattoo artist and mainly does these exact kinds of tattoos: American Traditional (i.e.: Sailor Jerry, EXACTLY the kind of shit that's on these shirts). We were at the drug store last night and he saw a stack of Ed Hardy school folders. He picked one up and said, "See, I would do this on somebody. It's so cool. But fuck...a SCHOOL folder??"



    So, on one hand, it's really cool to see good flash out in the mainstream. On the other hand, it's available to people who don't get what it's all about, therefore turning those of who understand it and what it's all about, WAY WAY OFF.



    It's kind of like how I would imagine someone that was a fan of The Beatles before they became famous felt when the dickhead down the street started liking them after The Ed Sullivan Show, but was also into really shit music. Yes, they listen to The Beatles, but they don't really "get" The Beatles.



    Ed Hardy designs are like The Beatles of the tattoo world and he really fucking sold out.



    It just makes me all barfy and annoyed.

    As someone with REAL tattoos, I've always found Ed Hardy to be the lamest of the lame. First it was people who know nothing about custom cars wearing Von Dutch, now its people who know nothing about tattoos wearing Ed Hardy. [all handily licensed by Christian Audiger purveyor of "lifestyle" brands"]

    I guess as someone who actually LIVES the lifestyles that Audgier "sells" its kind of offensive to be in effect, sold out to the masses.

    Also? The Ed Hardy billboard that was up for months by my house? Full of skinny, LA models with NO TATTOOS?

    WTF?

    @veronykah: So agreed. Im tattoed and my boyfriend is an artist and shop owner. Its beyond annoying to see douches run around in this shit and think somehow we are now kin. It degrades the origins of traditional tattoos and gives morons form LA, Jersey and Long Island even more reasons to get their asses kicked.

    you're a leetle slow on the draw, Hortense. Hot Chicks with Douchebags (http://www.hotchickswithdouchebags.com) has already written extensively on the matter of one Mr. Ed Hardy. Did you know there are Ed Hardy air fresheners? What do you think it smells like?

    Atrocious clothes for atrocious people. Clearly this is a perfect and seamless fit.



    And isn't Ed Hardy clothing kind of old especially in fashion terms? I remember one of my aunts going ga-ga over it back in 2006/2007, as she brought most of the immediate family Hardy gear for Christmas. That was such a hateful yultide.

    As a pretty heavily tattooed girl myself, I'm torn by the popularity of tattoo culture and icons like Ed Hardy. On one hand, the more in the norm it becomes, the less people make the old negative snap judgments about me. Now I got my tattoos understanding the perception people often have of a tattooed person so them not having it is like a bonus to me. On the other hand, the people who seem to like Ed Hardy and pop tattoo culture are often not the people I would want representing tattoos and myself as a tattooed person. It is a double edged sword when something you are part of becomes popular because you have to take the good with the bad.
