Why Male Fragrance Ads Are Becoming Worse Than Sniffing Glue …

First it was the man your man could smell like.

That was good. Funny. Interesting.

Then we had that pretentious Gerard “You can see it in my deeds” Butler bollocks.

Which was not good. But funny. In a fucked-up kind-of way.

Then things took a very freaky turn with the ancient, ex-guitarist of Judas Priest deciding to become a fragrance mogul by launching ‘Metal’ … the first scent designed exclusively for lovers of Rock Music.

No seriously, I’m not making this up.

But now … just when you thought it couldn’t get any more twisted, you have this:

Yes … you can now buy a fragrance that features a b-grade, fake, royal insignia because the creator is a delusional fuckwit, that lets you smell – and feel – like this:

And you thought it was mad when Mont Blanc invited you to smell like a pen.

He would only be more offended by your character assassination if you were a Mexican immigrant.

The epitome of ego is thinking people would like to smell like you.
The epitome of tragic is knowing there will be some people who do.

Comment by George

Don’t worry George, you’re safe on both counts.

The sad thing is, a wig would not wave hello and goodbye in the wind. The man would be better off bald, and so would we.

And yeah, who would want to smell like Trump? Thats like a fragrance so you can smell like George Bush or my Uncle Fred. Who would want to smell like an old guy with bad hair and heading for fat?

I never quite understood the point or appeal of men’s fragrances, anyway. Soap, maybe. Toothpaste, okay. But not something that makes your eyes water when he wafts in the door…

What’s with the “structured modern man” bit? Like how Trump emerged from bankruptcy restructuring?

Comment by Bryan

structured
(ˈstrʌktʃəd)
adj
1. having a distinct physical shape or form, often provided by an internal structure

2. planned in broad outline; organized: structured play for preschoolers.

3. having a definite predetermined pattern; rigid: structured hierarchy.

basically, organized, controlled, with an endoskeleton so he doesnt fall over when he walks.

Makes him sound about as charming as a high rise building.

Comment by judyt54

So it’s a Trump high rise … Can I spend a small fortune on a timeshare for the cologne but when I actually go to use it I find that they never actually put together the bottle?
