Recommendations for an anti-perspirant for men

Hi,

As the title suggests I was wondering if anyone can recommend me an anti-perspirant for men as I am fed up with the usual supermarket ones.

I'm looking for something that obviously does the anti-perspirant thing well, but that also has a distinctive aroma that lasts through the day. Contrary to what I should be saying on this site, I am not looking for bargain basement price but obviously not redicularly expensive either.

Thanks in advance.

    Do you prefer spray or roll-on? Body Shop used to do a good mens' deodorant, but it was a roll-on stick.

    I am terribly sorry but you have just reminded me of some awful sketch


    Ball or aerosol?


    Neither it is for my armpits.

    Anything with Aluminium Chloride in it, and apply at night.

    Mitchem. Very good indeed.
    I don't know about the scent, that is to your own taste, but you could use the unperfumed one and add your own scent to match your after shave.

    Thanks, usually use a spray.

    I get my husband the L'Oreal 48 hour one.
    Works and I like the smell. (I think it is a bit Issey Miyake)
    I don't however like the 96 hour one.


    Also I should say this does not mean I am in anyway suggesting not bathing/showering daily!

    Mitchum, roll on types much more effective :)
