I googled this; it appears to be a real concern - http://www.excelsisusa.com . The descriptions of these two colognes are hilarious:
"Benedictus - The marriage of linden blossom from Benedict's native Germany with frankincense from the Holy Land and bergamot from Italy creates a subtle and dignified fragrance, befitting a man of finely cultivated tastes. Barely perceptible is a nuance of citrus, and as it evolves, a discrete hint of musk. The overall impression is one of understated elegance. A slightly astringent and balsamic quality makes it a soothing and refreshing aftershave."
"The Pope's Cologne - Aristocratic, Old World fragrance made from private formula of Pope Pius IX. A refreshing aftershave with notes of citrus and violet."
If you don't want either of those, you can order the truly aptly named Camp 22! ("Camp 22 - like our old deer camp in the fall with dry leaves, dappled sunlight, a dusty road and a breeze off the lake, halcyon days and wondrous fragrances.")

ReplyDeleteIs this some kind of joke? Tell me, please, that this is not an actual product.
ReplyDeleteI have the same question as BooCat. Is this for real? (Surely not.)

I better not comment on this thread (I'm in enough trouble as it is)

ReplyDeletewv: reccion - what a Spanish hillbilly does, e. g. "I reccion we's gonna havta move the still agin."
Since I already wear a chasuble as designed for the last Pope, maybe I ought to get a bottle of this to go with it!
ReplyDeleteAs Joe commented: it probably smells of beer & kraut. Benny is, after all, Bavarian. :)
