The commercials display the idea of a stereotypical man: rough, strong, screamy and powerful. Society is full of gender stereotypes men constantly look up. With these commercials, Old Spice becomes one of the attributes a real man should possess.

After making her Old Spice commercial debut in October, she stars in a brand new hilarious spot alongside Deon Cole and Gabrielle Dennis that highlights the new Wilderness Aluminum Free Dry Spray and continues the campaign's focus on diversity both in front of and behind the camera.

Isaiah Amir Mustafa (born February 11, 1974) is an American actor and former American football wide receiver. Mustafa is widely known as the main character in a series of Old Spice television commercials, "The Man Your Man Could Smell Like".

The Man Your Man Could Smell Like "The Man Your Man Could Smell Like" was not only a commercial hit, but also won several awards, including the Cannes Grand Prix and the EFFIE Award for marketing effectiveness. It was able to increase the sales of Old Spice products by up to 107% in a short amount of time.

It was the brainchild of Wieden + Kennedy creative team Craig Allen (now co-founder of W+K-backed agency Callen) and Eric Kallman, under creative directors Eric Baldwin (now W+K ECD) and Jason Bagley. The initial ads were directed by Tom Kuntz, who upped the ante by shooting in a single take.

One major Old Spice lawsuit involved claims about its deodorants containing the known carcinogen benzene. The presence of cancer-causing chemicals in Old Spice and Secret deodorants is behind a class-action lawsuit against Procter & Gamble.

“The return of Isaiah Mustafa along with his new 'low key' TV son, Keith Powers, shows that Old Spice continues to evolve.”

Old Spice has partnered with the NFL and featured football stars including Ray Lewis, Greg Jennings, and Wes Welker in various TV and digital campaigns. In 2012, former NFL player Terry Crews was featured in the brand's viral hit "Muscle Music".

Old Spice deodorant inhibits the odor causing bacteria that makes your sweat smell. On top of that, all Old Spice deodorants contain powerful scents that keep you smelling fresh. Old Spice Antiperspirants contain similar deodorant technology, but also reduce sweating.

The first is the way they marketed to their new target audience. In the past, Old Spice was advertising to the older, 40-60-year-old market. After assessing market trends, they switched their target market to users who are in the 18-34 year range. This is much easier said than done.
