About the author
A marketing triumph this may be, BUT, AS A MORE THAN 50YEAR USER OF ‘OLD-SPICE’,
Once it was perfectly clear that the makers of this long-used ‘splash-on’,
were NO LONGER INTERESTED IN MY DEMOGRAPHIC, I INSTANTLY CHANGED TO ‘BRUT’,
And it will be interesting to see if the FEMALE-USERS of this OLD-SPICE, take up ‘the slack’ as males who are NOT of the same demographic as the much touted model, abandon this product.
MAYBE IT WILL BE LIKE THE ‘NEW & BETTER’ COKE-A-COLA’
