What is the best brand of Deodorant without the silly scents that really works for odor?

I am a stay at home mom that is really having a hard time not having body ordor late in the day. I have tried Secret and Degree, but they are all too smelly and by mid afternoon I can tell I need to reaply. I am not a heavy sweater so I don't have the wetness problem. Any ideas?

    This is an awesome question! I have the same problem sometimes! I don't have a problem with wetness, and if you look at all the deodorant bottles (I've been down this road!) you'll see that they all say "for protection against underarm wetness." I have tried several myself, and they keep me dry just fine, but I can smell the odor on my bath towels right out of a shower!

    You may want to try Arm & Hammer and see how that works. It states that it is supposed to absorb odor, but so far, that's the only one I've found that says anything about odor. I haven't completely committed to that one yet, because they don't have many formulas as far as invisible gels or anything, and it goes on kind of rough and dry. So if you do find one, let me know!!!

    I love Degree products, but I learned something recently. I tried changing brands and found the Secret "platinum" didn't perform like I thought it would. After writing the company I got some feedback, they said that the ingredients differ from the ones in my old faithful Degree, and that it usually takes about 2 weeks for your body to adjust to a new type. I kept trying the new one and after a while it did start to work better. However, next time at the grocery, back to DEGREE!!!

    Those that contain no perfume or scent - their are several on the market. Those containing baking soda might also be a good idea.

    Michelem ( not sure of spelling) is the strongest and scent free.

    Mitchum for women - it's clear - never makes a mark on your clothes. It smells nice and most important it works GREAT!

    You Really can skip a day... It is a true slogan.
