Designer Deodorants - Page 2
Question:
Both fahrenheit and herrera PH deodorants (spray) are very good, too bad they don't really smell like their corresponding scent but they are ok on that department, i mean they smell nice too.


Answer:
I had the Aramis antiperspirant pressure spray (got it as a freebie with a bag) and that stopped working one day, even though it was nearly full, just a trickle of gas coming out of it.
I've got Eau Sauvage and Aqua De Portofino deodorant pump sprays, and a few deodorant sticks. All are pretty useless on me where I live - I need antiperspirants. The deodorant sticks with alcohol in them tend to have the best strongest scent in them (and are softer). The D&G Homme stick is nearly as strong as the EDT.
If Brut can put out a decent antiperspirant pump spray, well, why can't the other designers?
I have a shower before going to bed. I also then spray my regular cheap antiperspirant on, which lasts a good day. By the time I wake up, the scent has totally gone, and I can apply EDTs to my heart's content.
I use Mitchum unscented in the roll on bottle if I shower later in the day.
The Mitchum unscented spray is a nuisance - if you don't shake it well, and apply it too thickly, it leaves big white patches on your shirts after washing, which you have to attack again with prewash and special antistain soap to get off.
My thoughts are that you only get the designer deodorant when it's in a gift set with the EDT, and it's going significantly cheaper than buying the EDT scent by itself - which is not an uncommon occurrence down here.

Answer:
Yea, well i don't anticipate any heavy acitivities when I apply the deos. I wish they would make Anti-perspirants. After all, in winter you can't even smell the deo (or your armpits) under layers and layers of clothing....
it's a good thing I didn't go overboard with deo purchases (got 6 designer deos for now) because I forgot that if I don't use them they'll dry out...can't wait for summer to arrive...

Answer:
I'm totally with francois re: Mitchum. I also use the gel, works great. I use the unscented and it won't interfere with your SOTD.
I also have Tsar (ok), Eau Sauvage intense spray (fantastic, really complements the EDT, I don't know about how it works with ES Extreme), Fahrenheit (ok, but probably unnecessary), and M7 (doesn't really smell like the juice, but none of the companion items are meant to smell like the EDT per the YSL website). I haven't used my Lucky You deodorant.
I also have Caswell Massey #6 deodorant; it smells like the base of the EDC, but since #6 is pretty light anyhow don't expect miracles. Its ok.
From what I have I'd get the Eau Sauvage intense spray again, but everything else I'd still use the Mitchum.

I wish that Mitchum gel would show up in the shelves down here. I've never seen it.

Answer:
OK; for everyone who has the slightest problem with perspiration - get some Aluminum Chloride, and use an unscented deo. Cheap, and total protection.
For everyone else - forget the designer deos, and go for an unscented deo....
I can't come to think of one single reason for buying those designer deos.....

Answer:
I use them in the summer as summer fragrances, when the perspiration is higher and they really give you that fresh feeling all day, tried eternity, ckbe, acqua di gio and ck one so far and they all worked great

Answer:
After many years using a variety of deodorants, and finding almost all of them created some sort of irritation or rash, I am now a very happy user of a crystal deodorant stick. They don't stop you sweating, but the minerals in the crystal prevent bacteria growth, hence no smell. They are great! No irritation and they last for ever....

Answer:
I've been using Kiehl's products for several years now and have been very satisfied: shampoo, shower gel, lotion, and their antiperspirant/deodorant. Their products are a little pricey but I feel they are worth it and they have a long history of being high quality. Their deodorant is unscented.

Answer:
I second the crystal deodorant route. I discovered crystals a few years ago and am still amazed at how simple the science is and how well they work. They create an invisible salty environmentunder your arms that allows you to sweat but doesn't allow the bacteria to reproduce. Google "crystal deodorants" and you'll get all the cool science. I used to get horrible rashes and pore blockages in my pits from the deo/anti's I was using and I have finally realized that so long as I wear a cotton T underneath a little sweat is good for you. It's the smell I can't stand. And let me tell you....crystal deodorants last 10 times longer than the chemical stuff we're all trained to think is better and it really does stop the BO. Plus they are a lot cheaper.
