OK. Does a university really need a cologne?
Apparently so. Check out the description:
The fragrance opens with the freshness of Italian bergamot and chilled gimlet accord. The middle note combines the coolness of blue cypress with the subtle spice of cracked pepper vapor. The base notes end with a deep black amber and cool moss.
It also smells like “masculinity, passion and honor.”
Hm. I actually would have guessed something more like the leather of Joe Paterno’s 35-year-old cleats he wears on game day.

Comment by spoon December 1, 2008 @ 11:43 pmlet’s just hope that OSU and OU don’t follow in these footsteps. If they do, I am pretending I never knew about either of them.
Comment by annoyedangelrants December 2, 2008 @ 12:32 amActually, that sounds like most of the aromatics in Bombay Sapphire.
Now I want a Martini.
Comment by Cynthia Closkey December 2, 2008 @ 12:33 amIf it smells anything like the campus I went to, it smells like stale beer, wet snow, and a chicken Cosmo.
Not the drink.
Comment by Woy December 2, 2008 @ 1:18 amI actually thought this would be a great Christmas present for Woy when I saw this. Haha.
Do I want to know what a chicken Cosmo is?
Comment by Jenn Schooley December 2, 2008 @ 2:30 amCollege 2 of 3 was a PSU branch and it sure as hell didn’t smell like Italian bergamot and chilled gimlet accord. It smelled more like cheap beer, weed, and that old dude who really needs to shower more.
Comment by Gina December 2, 2008 @ 11:26 amOh, how thoughtful of you to think of that for me for Christmas! You shouldn’t have!
Although, smelling like roses would be a little bit more appropriate, don’t you think? Will be great for Rose Bowl parade-watching on New Year’s Day. :)
Comment by Carla December 2, 2008 @ 11:31 amAA: There’s no chance that someone would do that for OU, but Ohio State is a marketing machine … it’s probably only a matter of time.
Carla: Funny. Roses aren’t mentioned in the profile … maybe something like, say, Citrus, would be better, for the sake of consistency?
Comment by Uncle Crappy December 2, 2008 @ 11:59 amI would have guessed 82-year-old scrotum.

If my alma mater Kent State had a fragrance, I do believe it would be the scent of SUCK.
