The other day while walking down the aisles of Walgreens, I was stopped in my tracks after spotting a sexy Spaniard gazing intently into my eyes. As I approached the dark stranger, I realized it was none other than Antonio Banderas beckoning me with his outstretched hand. I walked, nay, I floated toward him as his laser beam of seduction pulled me closer toward his smoldering eyes.
No! No it can’t be! It’s not the real Antonio Banderas, it’s a cardboard cutout - and it’s attempting to seduce me into buying cheap cologne. Not just cheap, but on clearance! A special offer - a $45 dollar value for only $25. I feel used and misled.
My heartbreak quickly turned to revenge. I snatched up several bottles of the fetid fragrance and relocated them in the “home fragrance” aisle. It wasn’t much of a stretch, the Glades and Air Wicks smell strikingly similar to most celebrity colognes and who knows, maybe Walgreens will see an increase in sales.

At least you were kind enough NOT to place his stench in the “Ladies not feeling so fresh fragrance department”

They imitate him and Melanie Griffith on the “Big Gay Sketch Show” and it is funny as fuck. I should put his cologne/perfume into my toilet tank, but then again, I want my toilet to smell clean - so to hell with that idea.

Did they have his latest scent, Border Crossing? He was going to call it “Run for the Border,” but that sounded too Taco Bell.
