Lynx Apollo

SteelyDanJalapeno

When I was growing up Lynx Apollo was my favourite stench of choice to pile on after a workin up a sweat.

Where has it gone? did I imagine it? It was the greatest

Ah,the oul Lynx, a shower in a can.
Great stuff altogether.

Lynx Africa had to have been one of the evilest stenches known to man.

The chocolate one was pretty bad too,

But jesus the Apollo was unreal, smelled like I had been washed by a thousand virgins

Lynx Atlantis was their only unique spray that didn't smell generic. It was created in 1997 and discontinued in most countries in 2004. It is still available apparently, though not in Northern Europe at least. Maybe they still market it under the Axe brand?

I found an old can of it in a box in my shed. It still smelt great. Didn't put it on though, the can was about twelve years old.

Wouldn't mind ordering it somewhere.

I never understand what the obsession was with teenagers and absolutely drenching themselves in that spray ****e. I dont mind a tiny bit under the arm pits, but drenching yourself in it and choking to death doesnt make you smell nice. It also does not get rid of the sweat smell despite what tv has lead them to believe. Lynx isnt even an anti-perspirant so it doesnt stop sweating either.

Sorry, I hope I'm not going off topic here but the new lynx ad is just scary. You know the one? where the news channel is broadcasting? I've been a long time user of lynx and now! no thanks..ye can keep it...

I've been using Lynx for years and I still haven't pulled the likes of Georgia Salpa, I call shenanigans!

I just hate been chased up the road by a swaggle of bitches so I dont use lynx no more, just a shower does me these days.

that's why it's so popular, it can mask any other stench known to man

Sweat dosent actually smell, its the bacteria that forms that makes the smell.

I think all these sprays are a waste of money, a tax on the foolish if you like.
Just another way to try and buy your way to conformity.
And besides, all those chemicals can't be good for you.

Have a few older brothers so was tormented by the stench of various lynx products throughout the years. Lynx is overrated, overpowering and I can't imagine the feminine version being any better.

once you hit 18 you outgrow lynx in fairness.

False advertising I used lynx and Angels never fell onto my crotch

You're not far wrong. I've many happy memories of standing in my grannys bathroom having my neck scrubbed with Lifebuoy soap and a rough towel before mass.


Well not happy memories maybe, but memories nonetheless


Powerful stuff Lifebuoy. Powerful

Sky King

Lynx Mirage and Tempest. Mmmm 90's to the max.

I presume people buy lynx because that's what's advertised and that's what you see in the supermarket. But has nobody tried smelling it before they buy? You can actually buy deo that doesn;t smell like sh!te for roughly the same price.

WHY do people buy it?

One of life's little mysteries.

*Edit just reading their product list on the wiki. Some real blast from the past names there that will ring a bell with those of us of a certain vintage... Inca, Atlantis, Java, Phoenix....

After I brush my teeth in the morning, I spit the toothpaste onto a facecloth and rub it all over my body

Nothing turns on a woman more than the smell of a cheap smelling teenager.

That and the smell of babies.

Mint Sauce

I think I stopped using it around the age of 18 or 19. Horrible stuff.

There is now Lynx for wimmins. I'm not sure how my willy would feel about that should he ever come in to contact with a Lynx wearin wimmin.

Always hated lynx with a passion, although I get a laugh out of the eejits who think they can just avoid a shower by throwing half a can on themselves.

personaly liked the chocolate one,though thought it was incredible that they had to write on the can that it isnt real chocolate and cant be eaten.:pac:

why have they suddenly decided to take out a new stereotypical girl lynx?
it smells like flowery cat wee,had to get it changed as someone bought it by mistake.
why do companies and people in general assume just because we are assigned to being female we want to have stereotypical scents?
am fine with regular lynx and always have been,some superb scents.

cant seem to find a all time favourite of mine though-certain it was still on sale last year at least-its black,maroon and gold coloured-any lynx geeks know the name of it?
have googled and looked on the wiki list posted by sky king but cant seem to find a trace of it.

Impulse O2 was my scent of choice.. Twas in a neon green tin iirc
