Best deodorant?

Which brands have you had success with? By that I mean feeling fresh, sweet and dry after a day in the office.

I don't have success with any of the supermarket roll-on brands (too watery) and I find that sprays stain my clothes sometimes. The one stick I go back to again and again is Mitchum but I'd like to find something a little cheaper.

    I have used the Dove block deodorant for several yrs now, as i find this is the most effective. and i don't seem to get on with roll-on types as they are alwyas sticky .
  • I only ever wear mitchum it is expensive but every now and again Morrisons have them on offer and I try and stock up. I have never found a deodrant that compares.

  • I use the mitchum sticks as thats the one i find most effective. I don't like roll ons and find that i use more if i use sprays. I don't get on with dove although i love the fragrance of them. I tend to buy the dove spray for the smell but still use mitchum. The only other stick one i find works is the sure ones, they also do one that leaves no white marks.

    Treat others how you would like to be treated. :)
  • I use anything unperfumed. I can't stand the smell of deoderant!

    I have used Amplex roll on (pink or blue lids) for years now - always found it to be effective, doesn't have a very strong smell at all and is 99p in Superdrug!
    Works for me!
  • I switched over to using 'Pit Rok' this year as I wanted to avoid aluminium/parabens in my products. I was surprised it worked as well as it does! I wash under my arms and then apply the stick to damp skin and allow to dry as I do my makeup. The stick itself lasts ages - my current one is about 5 months old. I also apply it every night after my bath.
