When you think of Old Spice you probably don’t think of hippies considering its prevalence amongst the generation who looked down on them damn stinking hippies and their anti-war notions. But Old Spice still sold like gangbusters in the 70s and if you’re of a certain age your parents were possibly hippies and I know a lot of us grew up with Old Spice scents in our house. Ubiquity means that Old Spice is the scent of everyone.
Of course, it’s not about if hippies wore Old Spice it’s about having either patchouli or incense scent prominent. Most Old Spice dupes do not mention frankensence in their scent list even though it is considered a part of the scent. However, Mystic Water’s Windjammer specifically mentions Frankincense as one of the many prominent spices in the Old Spice scent. Frankincense is, in fact, some of the best incences as Wikipedia tells me that it comes from the French language and means “high-quality incense.” Of course, we all know that everything in Old Spice is high quality so this makes total sense.
As for my music? Here’s the Old Spice whistle on loop for one hour. Judges, I expect you to listen to the entire video before deciding my points. That’s truly the only fair way to judge this one.
