It’s interesting that the instructions want you to cup your hands around the nipple instead of just spraying yourself directly

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

They would have made a fortune on placing these in high school locker rooms.
What's funny is that you (and I) associate cologne with high school, but adult men were spraying that shit on themselves from like the 50s to the 90s. Then Axe Body Spray took over the youth market, and a lot of boys coming of age started reevaluating their life choices. Smoking in public also became rare, and generally people started smelling better without the need for fragrances.
I can't remember the last time I used cologne or smelled it on another person. But my laundry, shampoo, body wash, and beard balm all have their own fragrances.
It feels mostly regional to me. The vibe I get is that Americans especially don’t really care for fragrances while here in the Middle East it’s a goddamn stereotype of us Lebanese men that we wear too much cologne.
(Or as I have grown up to understand it, just about enough cologne)
Good point, I'm only speaking from my experience in the Mid-Atlantic US region. It's probably different everywhere.
once lost a game of hide and seek cause the seeker could smell my cologne (i do in fact have some lebanese blood in me)
Very regional. I live in Colombia and literally every single person wears perfume or cologne. I’m the odd one for not wearing scents like that.
Yeah I'm American but I initially thought that that must be in the middle east since in my experience middle eastern men are much more likely to love wearing cologne
