Oars + AlpsAluminum Free Deodorant for Men and Women, Dermatologist Tested and Made with Clean Ingredients, Vegan, Travel Size, California Coast, 2 Pack, 2.6 Oz Each

Oars + Alps really does make deodorant that actually meets the claims that the big companies like to make. Wife approved (it was a birthday gift). She bought it for me because I was tired of using a big brand deodorant and wanted something a little unique.The scent:"Aspen Air" is my favorite scent of all of the Oars+Alps scents. It is very light, and airy but not floral and doesn't smell like laundry detergent. Deodorant is often to overpowering, like it's trying to double as cologne. This has a crisp, airy and sweet smell that's very light. It's only pungent as you apply it, and really it isn't that strong then either. As you go throughout the day the smell is there but only subtly. I've received compliments on the smell from men and women alike.The shape:This deodorant stick reminds me of the original Old Spice deodorant sticks. It's actually quite nice to hold. While it doesn't have the oval shape that makes it convenient for application across your pit, the circular shape is a nice throwback and welcome feel in the hand.I don't know how to say this without being subjective. This deodorant feels natural. I've used Speed Stick and Old Spice for years but they always felt... manufactured or man-made if you will. The smell, texture and feel of this deodorant comes across as though its made by someone churning plant based ingredients in a wooden bowl rather than a bunch of chemicals boiled in a giant metal vat. I dont know how to explain it but this stuff just "feels" better.It won't stop you from sweating. It's not anti-perspirant. IMHO I don't think it's smart to stop your body's important functions (like sweating). On days that I sweat heavily I don't smell if I use this. In fact I can apply in the morning, spend all day sweating doing yard work outside and then get in a 30min workout in the afternoon and still not smell nasty. Although at that point the nice Aspen Air scent is gone.Safe to say this stuff does its job. And it does it well. If your looking for an outside of the box brand and something more natural.. this is it.

This product is very good. It keeps me smelling good for 24 hours. It’s not sticky. Goes on smooth. I will definitely be buying this product again and again.

Been using aluminum free deodorant for about 4 months now, when I started I bought 5 different brands and rotate them to find a favorite. My notes:1. Oar and Alps Ocean scent - best smelling by far, really like this light clean scent. Downside is it's one of the weaker deoderants and requires a mid day refresher. 4/52. A&H Essentials Juniper Berry - seemed to be the cheaper, stock and standard and that's what it's become. Scent is light and inoffensive. Can just last a regular office day but not anything harder. 4/53. Huron citrus - stronger clean scent, like it a lot. Rolls on with white residue and while I haven't noticed stains on cloths I'm wary to use with anything dark. 3.5/54. Lume Tangerine and Powder - the tangerine is the most offputting scent out off everything, the powder isn't bad but a bit strong for a powder. While the scents are a bit disappointing Lume is by far the best controlling sweat and smell in both effectiveness and duration. Hate the deoderants roll on bottle, hard to control how much cream comes out, just go for the tube. 4.5/5, could be 5/5 with better selection and execution of scents. My overall winner and most used.

Update review 2020So I bought this product before the company did any education or provided any information on the “detoxification of your armpits”. Like most, I had no idea that was a thing, and never heard about it. Having job that I regularly interact with people, I could not take the time to go through the detox phase due to the risk of having bad body order, which is absolutely not acceptable in my line of work. Long story short, the quarantine happened and I was not able to see patients for 2 months. I figured now is the best time to give this a full shot, if I ever was going to. So I slowly weened myself off of my normal mainstream aluminum deodorant. after about 2-3 weeks of not using the aluminum base deodorant, I did not have any of the burning, red irritation that I previously have gotten from this product. I enjoy the scent, and I can say it lasts the entire work day for me. I have an active job and I am constantly on my feet. Since I am a bigger guy, I keep a stick of this in my desk just incase I need to re apply, however I have not needed to as of yet. I bumped original rating to 5 stars. After the detox processes this has been by far the best natural no aluminum deodorant I have tried. If you have the time to do the process, I highly recommend it. I have now been using it for a few months and I have not got burned from it once.Original review 2019Loved this product and want to still love it. I love the smell and it actually lasts all day for me, even when being very active. The BIG problem .. after a week of using i have such painful irritation under my arm pits now. I’m so disappointment because I loved this before the irritation happened. I guess I have to stop using it until the irritation goes away. If anyone knows which ingredient does this, let me know. I have no allergies at all and do not have sensitive skin.

Thought i would try something different after using schmidt for a long time. Nothing wrong with schmidt but thought id switch it up. This deodorant smells amazing but does not work for me. I put it on at night after my shower and end up smelling bad the morning after. Probably the fact that I am athletic but I do not have this problem with schmidt. For others this might be worth your time but for me, the dryness that comes with it and the lack of protection ruins it for me...

Love it

se siente bien al aplicarlo

Doesn’t last as long as anti-perspirants.

The smell is so good. Barely have mark on the clothes

It was worth the wait now I smell great.
