    Default Yuck!

    I was just at Target and decided to give the Aqua Velva a sniff. Yuck! I like the scent of the Ice Sport but the regular stuff is awful. My wife didn't like it either.

    Musk isnt too bad...though Aqua Velva is more of a YMMV with it

    Well... no accounting for taste, OP.

    Just kidding. Original AV is somewhat of a polarizing scent, but most gents don't have a problem with it.

    I like the Menthol kick most of all.

    Try putting some on before you dismiss it entirely (that's what I had to do).

    Always apply to your skin and let it dry down before you decide what it smells like. You would be surprised how differently something smells after it is on for a short while.

    I like the musk scent and the ice sport, but not the original. My wife gives me hell about smelling like an old man with the musk, but she likes it as does my daughter.
