| It's Axe Body Spray. It's disgusting. |

| Reminds me the Axe years. I thought I’d never get that smell out of my house. Teachers used to tell the kids they were allergic to it. |

| Sephora has a sample kit and then they can get a full size of whatever they like. |

| My 15 year old son loves cologne as do all of his friends. He suggests YSL Y. |

Not helpful to your kid, but the smell of drakkar noir brings me right back to 9th grade. I hate cologne but that one wasn’t bad. But maybe because we were young and it was a fun/adult thing to do? I had a bottle of Paris by YSL, which is the first and only bottle of perfume I ever had.
What I really loved is the smell of the scented laundry detergent that my high school boyfriend’s family used. Add in the smell of freshly mowed grass (from field hockey/lacrosse season) and it’s 1988 all over again in my head! Scent-memory is so intense. |

| OP take him to TJ Maxx or Marshall’s. Lots to sample and pick from. |

| Michael Malul Ocean Noir is insanely popular right now. It must have been in an influencer video or some soccer star wears it or something. My DS also likes Eau de Lacoste. |

+1 I made the suggestions above. It's popular with boys and I'm OK getting a quality one if the alternative is axe or their whole school smelling like gym shorts. Wonder what teachers think though. |

Any are fine. Just teach him not to bathe in it and to wash his hands well after getting any on them so it doesn't transfer to everything. |

| Fragrance is super popular among both boys and girls. Go to a Sephora, try some on, and get an inexpensive travel size spray. |

| Some of my kindergarten boys wear it and it makes me gag. Just tell him to shower and wear deodorant. |

+1. I think every teenage boy should go through an Axe Body Spray phase. It is a (smelly) right of passage. Hopefully they outgrow it quickly. |
