They decided to target men aged 18-28 as they were vulnerable to attra and sought attention from the opposite sex. Aspirers and Seekers were targeted because of increasing abilities to spend on lifestyle products. For this reason, HUL even priced Ax affordable prices.

The positioning statement of Axe can be given as - Among young males (aged 18-28), Axe brand of deodorants that helps you to attract the fairer sex because of its strong seduc fragrance. The perceptual map developed for Axe based on a sample survey further reinstate same statement. The perceptual map has been drawn on two variables- fragrance and lasting which were the most sought after features in a deodorant by the customers (as per the survey)
As can be seen, Axe stands very high on fragrance variable though it does not last for a very time. It faces close competition from Wild Stone and Set Wet which have similar feature those of Axe. On the other extreme, expensive deodorants such as Park Avenue and Tom Hilfiger have a mild fragrance but last for a longer time duration. These deodorants are prefe by men above 28 years of age who avoid strong fragrances. Another segment is catered to by Spice and Gillette which last for a long time as well as have a strong smell and are prima preferred by men with an active lifestyle.
