How do I get this Man-Smell out of my Apartment?
It's primarily in the area of the couch, and i have moved all dirty laundy to the stoarge downstairs. I triple bagged all the bedding he used. I keep blowing smoke onto the couch and have lit one too many scented candles. Lysol isn't doing it, maybe I should try a pet odor product? It's not sweaty or anything bad really, It's just very distracting.

1. Febreeze...
It ought to work for man-smell. I know it works great for woman-smell. Heh.

10. I'm tellin' ya...
Febreeze will do it! Use it on the couch and carpet. I use it all the time for the woman-smell. You get a kinda perfumy scent, but after it goes away (pretty quickly), all the smell is gone with it!

14.  get a man who hasn't showered in eight hours and isn't wearing colongne.
Edited on Fri Jan-21-05 05:29 PM by bettyellen
drop something right by his feet, and inhale the whole way down while picking it up.
For bonus smell, linger on the upper torso.
Shit, I told you it's distacting me.

17. They sell this stuff at Ace Hardware called
Smell B-Gone. This stuff WORKS! Anywhere you spray it the odor disappears. It's awesome.
