What’s said
The transcript

Starting off with my personal favorite, fresh powder. Smelling like a clean load of laundry. What else you getting, Casper? Rosewater's a great fragrance. Ashley gonna be smelling great. It's kind of a girly scent, but dudes love it. That's Coco Van. What does it remind you of? The beach. The beach? I think I can hear Myrtle Beach calling my name. Clean Sport. Terry, it's your fragrance. Oh, that's my fave. Clean Sport just makes you smell like you got your act together. Ocean Storm. Good choice, Ashley. It's like a manly scent to me, but kind of gentle. Like a buffalo. To me, it smells more like the expensive cologne my wife got me for my birthday. And last but not least, you're getting, hold on now, Sandalwood. Rugged, but refined. Now, if you click the link below, you can get four sticks with three bonuses and shipping all for 56% off. Ashley, your order's coming back. Here, he's delivering it. I'd just like to apologize, Ashley, on behalf of Mr. Pits and his odd buddy. We did it! I did it. That's for you, Ashley. Don't be dragging your boots on this deal now, you hear?
