Citrus Deodorant

I finally found what really works and is natural! I used to buy Verbena deodorant from a well known brand which is now 20£ per little bottle! So glad I found this! All day I had it on - it really works and prevents me from bad sweat smell! (Confirmed by my son :))

I've tried other natural (no aluminium etc) deodorants in the past and find they often make me smell worst than the standard aluminium deodorants, and I feel paranoid I smell of body odour even though I'm freshly showered. I can't speak to the effectiveness yet, as I have only just started using this deodorant, but the smell is lovely when applied to my underarms. It's smells like essential oils, so not for everyone. It's a very natural earthy smell, but definitely fresh, no funky, so I'm happy!

Lovely stuff

Fairly good at stopping smells. Lasts me about a day, but might need a refresh if you have a busy or stressful lifestyle. Possible one of the best no aluminium deodorants I’ve tried. Smell herby and gentle no stinging or rashes and have used for over a year with sensitive skin. You don’t get the blast of an artificial smell that you get with all the well known deodorants. Also some say aluminium free and then list alum on their ingredients list. It is often trial and error with these products, but worth a try.

Smells good and works

I now only use Weleda Citrus deodorant. I sweat a lot it stinks under arms. When I used to use other deodorant off the shelfs from Boots store after half a day, my body sweat odour and deo parfume smell mix was horrible. After switching to this, I don't get that smell. The deo smell doesn't last long but there is no sweat odour smell which is great so I'm convert to this product now.

It is a wet spray so doesn’t dry out your skin

My amazon order record says that I have bought this 4 times; In fact, for years, I bought an older version, in a clear glass spray bottle, several bottles per order. I loved the light, fresh smell so much I used it as a body spray. When I found that the new bottle was green, and the label was different, I bought just 1 bottle, thank goodness. I used it once; I noticed that the scent had changed; it was 'heavier' and 'medicinal', but worse than that, I had an immediate adverse reaction - stinging and redness which lasted for days. Still sad.

The Weleda Citrus Deodorant has a wonderfully NATURAL citrus smell that is simply amazing. Most products have a chemical-artificial citrus smell, or a citrus smell mixed with other smells like fruits or flowers, completely ruining the experience. While flowery smelling products are easy to find, good, natural citrus smelling products aren't easy to find. This ones rules. It's natural with none of the common offenders found commonly in deodorants. I love the glass bottles. They are a nice touch. You can re-use and re-purpose them or recycle them. I re-use them. The bottles are really well made and reminds me of when we were little, when almost everything was packaged in quality containers. Folks, there is no such thing as a 12 hour effective natural deodorant. To be hyper effective, a product has to block your sweat glands like most mainstream commercial products do. However, that is not good for your body in the long run. The other solution is heavy use of chemicals, which again is not very good for your health. Thirdly, a good strong artificial chemical smell can mask the rest. I don't fancy smelling like my deodorant, unless it's a wonderful smell like this one. If I want to make myself smell good, I have perfumes for that, and I hate it when my shampoo/conditioner/deodorant competes with, and ruins my perfume/cologne. Yes, this product is not as effective as a chemical-laden, sweat gland-blocking product, but the two cannot be compared. They are two different animals. I re-apply as needed and I don't need to remove most clothes to re-apply. I can re-apply by pulling the neckline of most tops, or if it's short sleeved, by pulling the sleeve. It's a spray so you don't have to reach the arm pit. And if some gets on your clothes? It's never stained any of my clothes, and unlike even some high end designer perfumes that you can never get the smell out of clothes, this smell comes off in the was very easily. And what a pleasure it is to re-apply! You get to bask in the smell that, because it's a spray, invariably reaches your nose every time you do. Each individual's mileage will vary as sweat strength/smell varies greatly among individuals, in my case a spray every 6-8 hours is sufficient. I often use this as my perfume as well, i.e. I spray my under arm area liberally, and skip the perfume. Ok, I'll admit that there have been days that I've sprayed this on my stomach and neck as well to use it as a perfume. The smell is just so great folks, if you are into citrus smells, that is. It dries almost immediately and is very comfortable. You don't have a wet or slimy armpit like with most other products. There is absolutely no white marks on your armpit or clothes! None! Until I found this I was using Miessence Aroma-free doeodorant (I couldn't find a smell on their line that I liked), which was ok, but this is way better. Miessence is a roll-on and you have that roll-on feeling until it dries. Even when it dried, you could "feel it." Which is the case with most mainstream deodorants as well. Basically, the mainstream products work by covering your armpit with a thick layer of product. Pros: 1. Great, natural citrus smell. 2. Non-aerosol. 3. Re-usable, environmentally friendly glass bottle. 4. Good for you and good for your health. 5. Lasts 6-8 hours (for me) 6. Doesn't ruin clothes by staining. 7. Doesn't ruin clothes by the smell attaching to the clothes permanently. 8. Dries immediately and is very comfortable from them moment you spray it on. 9. No white marks on your armpit or your clothes. Cons: 1. I don't have any cons only because I do not expect a natural product to perform like a chemical-laden product.

O odor dele é bem forte, como se fosse uma mistura de sálvia, alecrim, limão e lavanda. Se estiver procurando um desodorante natural com cheiro agradável, talvez o de rosa seja uma melhor opção. No entanto, não há defeitos em relação a desodorização. Oferece uma proteção de +/- 8hrs (dependendo do calor também), mas pra um desodorante mais natural está ótimo. Algo importante a mencionar é que pode acontecer de ter odores fortes (de cc mesmo) nos primeiros dias. Tem que insistir no uso, porque depois melhora.

Wish I had read the reviews its odor disappears within minutes...

das auch wirkt OHNE Alu-Salze und sonstige hautunfreundliche Substanzen zu enthalten. Ich habe einen schweißtreibenden Job; das Weleda Deo mit Wildrosenduft lässt einen auch nach getaner Arbeit noch ziemlich "blumig" riechen. Müffeln tut bei mir nichts, obwohl ich schon tüchtig schwitze. Klar die Achseln sind nicht "trocken" aber das hatte ich bei einem herkömmlichen Deo auch nicht. Mir gefällt die Philosophie von Wala,Weleda und Dr. Hauschka, ich mag die Produkte und vertrage sie gut. Schön, das ich jetzt auch noch das Deo aus dieser Serie habe. Das einzige Manko, nach der Rasur nicht sofort verwenden; es könnte auf der Haut brennen. Und die dazugehörende Duschpflege ist auch super toll!

This has a nice smell suitable for men and women. It has a light non sticky feel and although a deodorant it noticeably reduces perspiration. 2-3 squirts are effective but if you do 4-5 it lasts a lot longer. It's also easy to top up during the day. I tend to use it when going to bed or for an after work workout because its so light. It's also great for weekends. It's alcohol based and so dries super quick and can be applied to skin that have already started to smell a little in an emergency.
