So what are the fringe benefits working at Dove? Do you work on commission, or is it a straight salary? ---

But really Dove Men unlike most male grooming lines is probably the one to keep its traditional feel to the max. Is just the theme and a bit of the scents that make it feel pretty masculine to the touch, the bar soaps still got their mosturizing cream and most of the scents are pretty aimed towards us teenage guys or just wannabe punks. Nah I don’t know anything about the target markets of products, Axe is probably aimed more at our age group than this anyways… The scents are basically very relaxing though is what I am trying to say. The only real energizing ones as far as the ones I tried go would be Deep Clean and Clean Comfort. Traditionally even male grooming brands that come from a brand that’s originally targeted have very strong formulas and energizing scents to it, Dove Men dodges the bullet here. ---

Traditionally even male grooming brands that come from a brand that’s originally targeted strongly to women have very strong formulas and energizing scents to it, Dove Men dodges the bullet here.

I have [noted you previously](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=20776368&postcount=118) for randomly bumping your own threads for no good reason. But you’ve done so here again. More than once in the same thread, again. This time, it’s a warning for failure to follow instructions. And, again, this thread is closed.
