if you didn't have pix, i would not have believed it. at the risk of offending vg & some others (no offense intended please), i'd say that it likely smells like pure testosterone! bub

If you watch closely, the C5 cologne shows up in last year's movie "Anchorman" when Paul Rudd's character opens up his stash of colognes and puts on the panther "cologne." If you've got it... pull out your DVD's and check it out. It stuck out to me because, being a C5 owner and stickler for details, it was out of place (being a 1997-2004 car) in a movie that was to of occured in the 1970's. Yes... I'm a tool.

I have it as well. Missus gave it to me Christmas of '03. Don't smell bad at all, but it's just like any other men's cologne.
