It&#8217;s not like I&#8217;m asking them to lick it, there are people out there that I can pay to do that.<\/p>\n<p>Now you might be saying to yourself, &#8220;If he&#8217;s willing to pay someone to lick his armpit, why doesn&#8217;t he pay someone to smell his armpit?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll tell you why.  Because I don&#8217;t pay people for things I can do myself.  Like the licking the armpit thing, I can&#8217;t do that.  I&#8217;ve tried.  Either my tongue isn&#8217;t long enough or my neck can&#8217;t contort itself properly.  But I can easily smell my own armpit.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not like I&#8217;m going to shove that person&#8217;s face into my armpit, rub it around for 30 seconds, while yelling, &#8220;Who&#8217;s your daddy!?!&#8221;  Also, no one&#8217;s going to get a hairball from smelling my armpit, because I trim my armpit hair.  I do it because I don&#8217;t want it to look like I constantly have a kitten in a headlock.<\/p>\n<p>The reason why I was looking for someone to smell my armpit was because I wanted to know what they thought of the new Axe Dry Clix scent, which I&#8217;ve been trying out for the past week.  If you&#8217;re a regular reader of The Impulsive Buy, you know that I&#8217;ve <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/2006\/06\/04\/axe-snake-peel-shower-scrub\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tried<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/?p=181\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a few<\/a> Axe products, and found them to be&#8230;um&#8230;what&#8217;s the best way to describe them?<\/p>\n<p>Not good?  Crappy?  Shitty?  Lame late night Cinemax softcore porn-ish?  <\/p>\n<p>Oh wait, I got it&#8230;old man-ish smelling.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"float:left;padding-right:10px;border:none;\" src=\"\/images\/axeclix2.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With this negative opinion I have of Axe products, I wanted someone else&#8217;s thoughts about the Axe Dry Clix scent, which I thought smelled fine while in the dispenser, but gross when I applied it on my armpit.  The Axe Dry Clix was somewhat uncomfortable to roll on as the scented hard white substance grabbed and tugged on some of my underarm pubes.  Also, with the Axe Dry Clix being a white stick, it left some white residue after applying, which could end up on clothes or on someone&#8217;s face if their face was shoved into an armpit, rubbed around for 30 seconds, while hearing, &#8220;Who&#8217;s your daddy!?!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Of course, as I noted earlier, I failed to get another person to smell my armpit to find out what they thought of this anti-perspirant\/deodorant.  However, I&#8217;m going to give you the opportunity to smell my armpit and let me know what you think of the Axe Dry Clix scent.  <\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"http:\/\/rcm.amazon.com\/e\/cm?t=theimpulsivbu-20&#038;o=1&#038;p=8&#038;l=as1&#038;asins=B000HTWX8G&#038;fc1=000000&#038;IS2=1&#038;lt1=_blank&#038;lc1=0000FF&#038;bc1=000000&#038;bg1=FFFFFF&#038;f=ifr\" style=\"float:left;padding-right:10px;width:120px;height:240px;\" scrolling=\"no\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Above is a picture of my armpit with the Axe Dry Clix applied.  To smell, just scratch the picture on your computer monitor, place your nose next to the monitor, and inhale deeply with your nose.

If you are able to smell it, let me know what you think in the comments.<\/p>\n<p>Right now I&#8217;m going to stick with the Clix, because I&#8217;m too lazy to buy another deodorant and there are a few people out there whose faces I would like to shove into my armpit, rub it around for 30 seconds, and ask them &#8220;Who&#8217;s their daddy!?!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Item:<\/b>  Axe Dry Clix<br \/>\n<b>Price:<\/b>  $3.99<br \/>\n<b>Purchased at:<\/b>  Kmart<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b>  4 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b>  Smells all right in the container.
