I use Avalon Organic Botanicals deodorant and it works pretty well for me.
Here are other threads about deodorant: Thai Deodorant Stones? Tooth Paste and other goods |

Patchouli!
Although it is not deodorant, I may have a solution for you: patchouli. Purchase some patchouli essential oil, and add a couple of drops to a small vial of water. Then, spray this onto yourself liberally. Afterwards, you will smell only of patchouli. I don't bathe for weeks at a time simply because I cannot be bothered, but my liberal use of patchouli conceals this, and most people find my odor appealing. In fact, I recieve many compliments on it.... Good luck. (Oh, yes, and I should mention that I don't even use deodorant; my patchouli stands in for that.)

yikes. between this and the masturbation thread, i feel like i know way too much about you people.
![]() question for the women: do you think your body odors (in general) are stronger before you menstruate? i've notice this, but i'm not sure if it's all in my head or what. |

My job is pretty physical and not to mention the carrying of hay from shed to paddocks to feed my hungry family i tend to sweat alot more then the average person i know, i cant comment on the menstrual odour thing as im lucky enough to be avoiding that for another 7 months.

Is it that you smell worse or smell better? In other words, are the odors actually stronger, or is your nose just more sensitive at picking them up? Hmm... |

It isn't necessarily worse, it's just that there's more of it, I guess. Isn't this a lovely topic?

Hmm.. I never really thought about it before, but before I went vegan I had to use a men's sports deodorant, but now the occasional swipe with a mild Tom's of Maine stick is all I need to keep from being stinky (and I only shower 3 times a week because of my dry skin). Sorry, I don't think I'm qualified to comment on the odor/period thing cause mine are controlled by 'the' pill to help my des-er-whatchamacallit symptoms.
