Apollo

I absolutely love this, by far my absolute favorite Axe ever, on par with Axe Touch (which never should have been discontinued.) It's essentially Abercrombie and Fitch Fierce but with more Mandarin and Sage. I just wanted to chip in my two cents: Bod Most Wanted is very similar and equally amazing, it emphasizes more Rose and Amber, and leaves out the other notes completely. If you buy it, only buy the liquid spray version, never get the propellant can (it smells way too artificial.) So for anyone who loves Apollo, Bod Most Wanted is very similar and awesome to combo with.

This shit is fire. I really love this fragrance way back 2014 and I was not a fraghead those time and I don't care about the perfume notes etc. as long it smells good and last. this one is also my go-to party scent.. like this is my bestfriend back in the day. and believe it or not, just looking at the bottle pic above. I can still remember the scent profile of this. Oh Man! I wish I can still find a full bottle of this bad boy.

It might embarrass some people to say that they like AXE but when it's good, it's good! The top/heart notes is a synthetic fruity scent, like an apple. I suppose this is the Quince. The winner, though, is the base. It has a really noticeable, manly Cedarwood note- one of the best Cedar's I've smelled. Pairing it with a 90's style musk. I don't really detect the florals. Based off deoderant/Shower Gel 2024 formulation

Just got the bodyspray version again, harder to find Apollo lately in Indonesia. This is probably one of the nicest Axe, and the only Axe that I ever repurchase again and again, hope that Axe will never change the scent or discontinued this one. Longevity is quite good though I have to spray a bit more, project nicely on my skin and lasted more than 6 hours.

ı have many fragrance some of them are expensive bu my girlfriends favorite frag is this.

Remind me the "Arko Action" After Shave.

BEWARE!!!! It's late September of 2022 and the deodorant stick version of Apollo has now officially been reformulated. The old stick that was opaque white or green/blue (I can't remember) and smelled very similar to Fierce/Legend edt with that sweet lavender and tonka has been replaced with a translucent dark blue stick that smells of a generic spicy sage/green soapy showergel. Almost 90s-esque, but 100% different in scent. It's even labelled on the front of the stick as "Sage and Cedarwood deodorant" right under "Apollo" in the top left. Not sure about the antiperspirant. But if you loved the old Apollo that, even up to the end of 2021 still smelled of Fierce, it seems to have been discontinued. Was really hoping that the policy of releasing a completely new fragrance under the same name would be limited to designer fragrances but apparently not. So if you happen upon an older Apollo without that "Sage and Cedarwood" label, it might still be good. Otherwise, another one bites the dust. Damn. Ps, at least they haven't axed Dark Temptation (which reminds me a bit of A*men). Yet.

This is nice! Fresh, a little softly lavender-y, I don't get any sage, but it's kind of herbaceous toned fragrance bolstered with musky amber. The opening is a little harsh, but I think Axe just has a rough start regardless of which one we're referring to, it's not great right out of the can until it settles a little. It has a vague fruit note to my nose. This doesn't retain a tacky smell, or anything notably cheap, it actually smells quite mid-range (for whatever that means, I hope people understand). The amber is smooth enough, and it's the dominant note IMO. Nothing here smells teal, I think this should've had brown or dark orange highlights on the can. It's warm overall, but isn't overkill in the summer. I enjoy it on my husband 😊

Nose Note #355 Wonderful familiar sweet lavender scent. Ruined only by the fact it is a deodorant and thus attracting negative associations. Otherwise this is a good Legend / Fierce type scent that gets compliments! If you are generally thrown off by the thought of a deodorant smell - you may not like it. But objectively, historically, contextually, whatever - this is a nice scent that would be appreciated by many. I can't but remember a video on YouTube where a guy does blind tests in the street comparing PdM Layton and some Adidas perfume and most people choose Adidas over Layton...

This is an iconic Axe fragrance that was virtually one of the first fragrances I ever used. When I was in high school, this fragrance was introduced. This was a rather good scent due to what it is a body spray version of. That being the classic lady killer and compliment better, Abercrombie and Fitch Fierce (as well as other similar smelling fragrances including Mont Blanc Legend and Bath and Body Works Whitewater Rush.) This was a good gateway drug fragrance and a good way to figure out scents that work for you.

Maybe the generally bad reputation of body sprays is mainly from their mindless overapplication by schoolboys, or perhaps they really did suck 25 years ago when I wasn't paying attention to fragrance. But from what I've smelled lately, regardless of brand the quality of body sprays ranges from "meh, it's fine" to some surprising standouts which I'm happy to own. As for Apollo, you could pay a lot more for less quality and performance. I know I have.

To those who are afraid to wear Axe because it's a canned deodorant: 1. Almost no one will know it's a deodorant unless you tell them, or they see you spraying it on, or they recognize the exact one it is (which is unlikely unless it's another guy, and he likely isn't going to be bothered). 2. Many actual, legit fragrances have deodorant versions which come in spray cans, so...

Smells like a mens locker room from all the axe shower gels and sprays. Kind of soapy and not bad. I accidentally dropped my bottle and it shattered and went everywhere in my office at work. Even after mopping my office it smelled nice for like 2-3 weeks. Women would often stop by to comment, it smells like a mens locker room in here.

I know we probably have ptsd from everyone drowning themselves in this after gym class, but honestly, and realistically, the scent itself is not bad Ignoring the bad memories associated with it, its a nice, clean/soapy, and fruity scent that works year round. The stigma and High School memories really hold it back big time

Simply, this is a Fierce copy. Just like so many fragrances, including Playboy New York & Mont Blanc Legend. So identical, it shocks me how the notes of the two are so different! I can't judge the lasting power & sillage, as I've only tested it in the shop but I assume it'll be around 4 hours since it's made by AXE.

A cologne that carries another Fierce DNA. I saw this scent by chance while wandering around a supermarket, and because of its similarity to Fierce, I wanted to try it and bought it. I used it like deodorant. There is nothing to be dissatisfied with.

I’m so amazed, I asked a guy what he was wearing because he smelled so good and it was this. AXE. Apparently their fragrances have come come a long way, because this is not what comes to mind when I think of AXE lol.

This is a familiar scent dna as it has been widely used before. It has nice smell, great for spring/summer days. I can't comment on performance since i am reviewing the deodorant version of it

Had to buy it just because I saw so many reviews that this was a Fierce and Legend copy, nonetheless, there's something different about this one, but I can't seem to tell what it is.

Get this for your 5 year olds, not a grown man
