Review (4/5): Excellent - gentle and effective but...
This works exceptionally well for an aluminum-free alternative. Most of the time, I will use Nivea antiperspirant once or twice a week, and supplement it with this deodorant. Antiperspirant seems to last through washes, so I don't need to apply it every day. I don't have the kind of body that can go with using only deodorant, and often times even antiperspirant fails. This Nivea deodorant really does work for getting rid of odor, and because it dried in the armpit, it seems to make a seal that stops sweat a bit. One word of warning...this deodorant has a REALLY STRONG scent. If you are bothered by fragrances, you may not like this at all. It definitely clashes with perfume for a few hours of wear, and if applied at night, I found the fragrance to be annoying and it game me a headache. There are other aluminum-free Nivea formula with different fragrances that I'm going to try to see if their perfume is less pungent. Also - it smells like "deodorant" even though it's a fresh scent. Anybody near to me could be thinking "Wow, she wears a lot of deodorant."
