Worst Smell Ever

I was reading a post over at Mill's spot (UndercoverBlackMan) and I had to laugh.
I'm currently going through the worst years of an adolescent boy's grooming stage.
The years when they imagine that a half bottle of cheap cologne can cover a days worth of funk from various sports practice sessions.

But some scents are even worse than the smell of a half bottle of Axe, Diesel, or Usher mingled with sweat.
Some scents start off smelling rancid.
I'm not talking about the Aramis gift sets or Grey Flannel,
I'm talking about the scents that were truly unique in their putridity.
5 - Brut

4 - Canoe
3 - Old Spice

2 - Aqua Velva
1 - Those bottles shaped like cars, dogs or even women which one bought from Avon.
Well... okay.
The smell of funk after Spring seven-on-seven drills,
mixed with a half bottle of Axe,
mixed with the stench of the sweat after baseball practice is far worse than even these.
But I gotta' tell ya - it'll be nice when these boys learn that cologne is supposed to be used after a shower - not in place of one.
