Ricordi quando andavi alla scuola secondaria e sentivi questo odore in ogni classe e corridoio?
Questo veniva indossato da ogni ragazzo (me compreso lol) e non potevi andare da nessuna parte senza sentirne l’odore. Comunque è stato abbastanza bello 😂
Lynx Africa is the smell of the locker room. But I member lynx chocolate being the hot new shit.

I was living in Germany in the ‘80s when Axe, the brand name for Lynx over there, became popular. The smell of it over the underlying BO of unwashed bodies was unpleasant. Now, every time a version of it wafts past my nostrils, it makes me think that the wearer is a stinker trying to cover up his crime against society. True prejudice on my part, perhaps? /s

It was Lynx Africa for me. Until about 5th/6th year when many of us realised Lynx does not work well at stopping you from sweating/smelling.

Lynx Africa for the win.

I think it’s even worse now.

I don’t know what the fuck happened in my secondary school but one year every single lad decided Joop Homme was the only thing they should smell like.
Walking through the corridors was like wading through mustard gas.

Lynx Apollo is the 🐐, I remember bringing a bottle of shower gel of it on a school trip to France.
Long story short is exploded all over my bag , so couldn’t get away from the smell all trip.
Managed to find a massive bottle of it in a Mr Price , only it’s now Axe Apollo must get up to see if they have anymore.

Or as was a favourite of the lads in my place, directly into people’s faces.

As someone with asthma, I still have bad flashbacks when I get the whiff of it 😭

Was Lynx Musk & Oriental in my day, with the odd Insignia or Brut
In my day, it was Lynx Africa
Africa still haunts my nostrils from the 90s secondary school
The bang of Lynx in the changing room when everyone showered after P.E 🤢
A billion times nicer than Africa
The stink of sweat and Lynx in the next class after PE, fucking rotten.
Lynx Africa is the master version though, this is merely an iteration.
Bow down, lesser being.
I love the way the R is smeared, like when Marge got cheap t shirts at the mall
Lynx Africa (although the brand was called ‘AXE’). Clearly much classier than today’s youth.
Ah, shower in a can.
It still does
As with others it was Lynx Africa in my day. And on nights out lads would smell like they had sat in a bath of Davidoff Cool Water for the day.
Was a Lynx Atlantis man myself back in the day.
What a selection… We didn’t know how good we had it; what a time to be young!
