There are several good things about this deodorant. It has a lovely feel when it is applied, it is unscented, and because it doesn't have baking soda, it doesn't cause me to break out in a rash. Unfortunately, for me personally it did nothing to control odor, a critical function of a deodorant (especially in the humid south - but honestly it was in the 70s when I used this and I still stank by 5pm). This may just be me and my body doesn't "click" with the ingredients in this product. I work from home so I can get away with smelling bad - I tried to use it for several days straight to see if there was an adjustment period and no luck.
