Mitchum roll on or spray,both are good.

Then get a decent bottle or 2 of cologne.

Personally I don't think you can get much better than Sanex roll on. Very long lasting, ok no fancy smell but very very reliable.

Sure women's cotton dry.

Just smells like soap.

And I'm a bloody bloke.

Vichy Men's deo is a bit pricey but smells lovely.

I bought superdry recently from Boots and it's pretty good!

Was recently looking for a deodorant only as the aluminium in anti pers gives me a rash

Anyway despite my old hatred of lynx which used choke me when someone wearing it was near I found the Excite, Black and You versions are surprisingly nice to be fair.

Found it had a nice, clean scent and didn't feel like breathing mustard gas, I'd rec giving em a try and see

In fact it's very hard find a plain deodorant in normal shops these days nearly all of em are antiperspirants, would nearly need to go "high brow" like Armani or Hugo Boss for deodorant only

Most of the L'Oréal deodorants smell really nice and have more of a natural undertone.

I find a lot of deodorants have a sharp tone that doesn't really work with human scents. You end up smelling like a car air freshener with a hint of Cillit Bang.

The reality of it is we don't generally smell bad unless you're covered in stale sweat, in which case you're smelling bacteria, not the person so a good deodorants should be tackling the bacteria more than trying to mask it with some awful scent that creates a sharp / acrid smell.

There's also a fair bit of subtlety involved with perfumes - they should be working with your body scent not against by making it weird / worse.

It's the same with some laundry products. I find certain brands just may wash well and smell fine on their own but they don't smell nice on clothing. It's particularly true of some of the cheaper brands that are just highly perfumed and after a while you notice more of the base tone of the chemicals than the original blended scent.

This is Anti Perspirant (though I've moved to roll on, I still miss this).
One of the best scents I found.

Ignore that price too, they're always ~€2.

That price is for a 6-pack.

Ah I didn't even check I was just wanted a pic example.

For that price though I may as well pick them up!

Bought Mitchum Ice Fresh the other day, nice scent off that.

I buy (what I'd consider) expensive, well fitting T-shirts that last a few years and I shower a good bit with cycling to work and water sports. I use L'occitane Eau Des Baux Stick Deodrant. Kind to skin and clothing. It's about €17 a pop, but lasts for months.

No build up of unwashable white hard crap on the t-shirts, no white streaks, no overpowering smells, it actually works and no weird reactions.

I endure Kildare village once a year and stock up. Three sticks will last a year. Xmas gift sets for relatives at half price done and dusted in July too!!
