The Old Spice Guy has quickly become my favorite ad character, bringing some much-needed laugh-out-loud humor to commercials. The Old Spice Guy asks you to make your man smell like him -- using Old Spice, of course.
He asks if woman wants a man who "can bake [her] a gourmet cake in the kitchen he built with his own bare hands?" The answer, of course, is yes, which means all women should buy Old Spice body wash in order to get a man who is closer to the Old Spice Guy, who has done the above. In the end, he asks woman to "swan dive into the night of their life" with Old Spice Body wash.
