The product, aimed primarily at teenage boys and young men, will be honored at the upcoming Clio Festival in Miami’s South Beach, May 13-16.

“Unilever’s Axe is a brand that exhibited courage in developing edgy, breakthrough creative work worldwide,” Ami Brophy, executive director of the Clio Awards, said in a statement.
