SUMMARY
AXE was once iconic, and its effect was relevant. But culture moved on and left AXE behind. After years of declining sales and penetration, Axe went back to its roots with a fresh take on attraction inspired by the open, inclusive, exciting attraction playground ushered in by Gen Z and a simple idea that when you smell good, life opens up a world of possibilities. The New Axe Effect made the brand relevant to a new generation and grew sales and penetration after nearly a decade of decline.
