    Reeling in the years here...

    Cast your mind back through all of the various Lynx deoderants...which were your favourites??

    Mine was a tie between Java and Tempest...

    Africa. I think it's still my favourite. I don't use Lynx anymore though because it's pretty crap.

    Africa ... still use it.

    Lynx Nevada was pretty nice as well. Miss that one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,346 ✭✭✭blindpilot


    Ah java, it used to mask the stink of the night before (or so I thought)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,094 ✭✭✭jd007


    Africa was the first one that came to my mins aswell. Wasn't there a touch one aswell. That was nice.

    I'm confused. What do adults wear? And what distinguishes that from Lynx?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 162 ✭✭Din Taylor


    All smell the same to me. Really hate their ads.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,646 ✭✭✭✭MrStuffins


    I don't think actuallt MEN still use Lynx, just kids.

    And when i was a kid i loved Lynx.

    My fave was probably Atlantis, always liked it.

    And hated Africa (still do)

    'the cheap smell of teenage desperation'
    Atlantis for me...OOOooo fancy


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,574 ✭✭✭falan


    Yeah 'java' was a nice one....Usually get 'fever' now....:)

    It has to be Africa. I never buy the new ones anymore though. "Chocolate" deodorant? What were they thinking..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 92 ✭✭wanrek

    Decent deodorant that doesn't smell cheap and, in most cases, pretty rancid?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,362 ✭✭✭K4t


    Dark Temptation aka the chocolate one. Sex. Use the shower gel version too.

    Faranheit by Dior when going out.:cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 251 ✭✭fikay


    Actually, does anyone remember inhaling it through a towel?
    It’s better when you can afford real drugs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,816 ✭✭✭✭galwayrush


    I prefer to shower and be clean, not try and cover over the BO.:D

    Lynx is putrid, cheap, and for boys, i dont know any men that use it. For me, i am reminded of my youth spent in the changing rooms after matches, where Lynx was always the choice of smelly adolescents who sprayed it in place of taking a shower. I turned my nose up then and would still do so now. Every one in their ''range'' smelt the same too. Really really bad stuff, the aroma of a fart is more enticing. That said, i do actually like their chocolate scented spray! Its about the only one of theirs i can stomach though. Deodorants are rubbish in general anyway, they dont keep you dry and dont prevent you from smelling. Anti-perspirants FTW!

    I've never used Lynx. F*cking stuff smells like cheap air freshner.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,646 ✭✭✭✭MrStuffins


    I always use Lynx, because when i do, scantily clad attractive girls sniff near me in a dramatic fashion and attempt to partake in intercourse with me!

    Especially now since my pet Gorilla is no longer around. He ate a Dairy Milk and he's now the touring drummer with Genesis!

    This just proves people can get snobby about anything.

    Maybe so, but Lynx still smells like a halibut's gash.

    ... I just generate my own natural manly musk rather than spraying on a layer of tear gas...
    Sweat only smells bad when it goes stale/sour and all the nasty bacteria start reproduce...
    That's way I top up with good bacteria and use Actimel as shower gel...

    Africa is the only one that doesn't smell like cat piss.
