I wholeheartedly sympathize with you on the Game situation. I’ve had women nuzzle my neck repeatedly commenting on how great it smells. What better place to expose targets to mones than at ground zero, and letting them do all the work.
I’ve read back on threads claiming Game smells like Cool Water, Hugo Boss, and Nautica Competition Relaunch. Most interesting was a post by Tisha stating “I never smelled cool water to tell you the truth but Michael the maker of AMMO and the man who commissioned the scent said its simular (sic) to cool water and Hugo boss. I figure I will take his word for it LOL”
Gegogi posted a little further down in the same thread that “Yep, Ammo smells exactly like Nautica Competition (yellow bottle with black graphics)…” (thanks for the heads up on that Gegogi).
I’ve ordered sample sized bottles of each and will do a comparison.
I certainly don’t understand why it wasn’t left as an option. There are the haters, and to each their own, but enough people seem to like it to keep it around. I wouldn’t have spent almost $300 on the last 4 bottles of Game scented 2X Ammo if I didn’t like it. Maybe Mr. Harris can chime in here and let us know what the reasoning was behind the change.
I did get a chance to smell v1.8 Ammo when my 2X order got a little messed up. Not impressed. At all. I’d try covering before wearing that as a stand alone, if I even buy it period. Anyone remember “New” Coke back in the '80’s? Hopefully this attempt to re-invent the wheel doesn’t turn into a marketing fiasco like that. I’ll shut up now. :o
