I was a little unhappy that my crystal deodorant didn’t always keep me dry and that the pump often got clogged up, so I decided to look for something new. The lovely selection of oils made this product stand out and I’ve always enjoyed using the Aubrey Organics range, so it didn’t take further convincing for me to give it a go.

Initial Impressions: Aubrey Organics products are presented very professionally and this is no exception. I’d love to see it sitting alongside the chemical-laden alternatives in my local supermarket. On whipping the pump off and havig a sniff, I was very pleased with the rich, warm scent.

Application & Results: The product is applied like any regular pump-style deodorant spray. It comes out as a fine mist and only two or three pumps are needed under each pit. The smell is a little strong for the first few minutes, but settles down nicely. What I really love is that the smell lasts absolutely ages and even puts those heavily-advertised 24-hour products to shame.

My only negative point (and hence the reason for 4 hearts) is that if I get particularly sweaty, my underarms feel sticky. I’ve also noticed bits of lint stick to my pits if I’ve been wearing tight clothing. It’s not horribly unpleasant, certainly not compared to having dampness there, but it’s a tad uncomfortable.

Review Conclusion: Overall, this is a wonderful deodorant and I will definitely be purchasing it again. It’s long-lasting, smells great and does a grand job of keeping soggy underarms at bay.
