I used men's deodorant when I worked EMS/Fire fulltime because women's deodorant just did not hold up.
I did not want to be in the back of an ambulance and lean over my patient to get something out of a cabinet and render them unconscious.

I now use Crystal rock deodorant, it works for me.

I use this too!!

While I would love to sit and pretend that I as a Fru I don't sweat. I was a FedEx driver for 10 years in Florida and reality is that Mitchum works. I hate scented anything. I don't want anything clashing with my perfume. Mitchum unscented works like a charm and has kept this Fru from "glistening" in the wrong places for years!

Ha! I was going to just quote Diva and say that I don't sweat, I glisten, but you beat me to it so I'll go with the ole "I perspire, not sweat (but I prefer to glisten)".

Tom's of Maine Thats what I've been using for years. Its only a deodorant but it doesn't specify for men or women. The only dissappointment I have with Tom's of Maine is that they stopped making the woodspice scent So far I haven't found it in Kentucky, New Mexico, Delaware, New York or New Jersey. SO if anyone finds Tom's of Maine woodspice in their state I will pay for the product(clean out the store) a finders fee & shipping......

ButchEire · 06-26-2010, 07:03 PM

Omg, I thought I was the only one! It took YEARS for me to find anything that worked all day and it ended up being Degree for Men Absolute Protection (antiperspirant and deodorant). Over the years, femmes I have been in relationships with have commented (okay, complained in MANY cases) that I "smell like a man", even with deodorant. Not much I can do about that and in fact, I like smelling like a man! Oh, and trust me, I sweat, a LOT, even with antiperspirant.

Andrew, Jr. · 06-27-2010, 04:26 PM

I use different anti-persp. depending on what I am doing, what's on sale, and so on. I sweat a lot. So, with that said I depend on Mitchum, Axe, & Right Guard. My all time favorite that has been discontinued is Arm & Hammer's Gel Sport Scent. I so miss it. I only use men's. Women's anti-persp. never worked for me.

I use the same deodorant I have for years... Dry Idea, unscented. You know, I am just not a men's scented kinda butch overall. Mainly use unscented stuff for women, anyway and don't care for cologne, really. Nver have and used to tell men I was with to not wear it around me. Maybe an understated scent would be OK. Dunno. Think I'm just not into scents. Heavy perfumes make me sneeze and most just don't smell good to me.LOL... yes, these days, I do ask for a femme date to not wear heavy or a lot of perfume... or other scented stuff.

EnderD_503 · 06-27-2010, 07:58 PM

Axe actually really surprised me first time I tried the body spray. It was one of those brands that I thought just road off the commercial appeal for its target group. Was surprised it not only worked to any degree as a deo, but worked really well at that. Still prefer Adidas, though.

RockOn · 06-27-2010, 08:51 PM

I use men's Mitchum - clear kind that doesn't leave white powder on the underarm places on your shirt. I like the sports or mountain scents.

I have not used women's deordorant in decades.

Me too. well, not since 1983 but maybe since 1999. it works way better than anything else.

MysticOceansFL · 07-02-2010, 05:59 AM

I still use the same deoderante as I have for years.

07-02-2010, 06:27 AM

Another Mitchum user (since the 80's) here, 'tis very effective. My girl uses it too. We both use the unperfumed one.

A little tip for those who experience the white residue thang - just a little bit of aqueous cream or moisturizer wiped over the affected area.

Random · 07-02-2010, 07:22 AM

I don't use it....

I never got into the habit, so if I do buy it, then it sits unused... I really just don't like the way it feels...

I shower before going out and then again when I come home...

If, at some point during the day, I have worked up a killer sweat, then I go to the bathroom and clean up..

chefhottie25 · 07-03-2010, 12:12 AM

I work in a hot kitchen with a hot chef coat on all day. I have tried several different deodarants. I have found that axe...especially type called kilo works for me. I put it on after my morning shower and after 8 to 10 hours of work it still holds up. I also use the axe kilo body wash in the shower and it leaves me feeling really clean.

Oh gads..

Chef coats..

*Head Shake*

Upper management got the smart idea that bakers should be wearing chef coats... Ya.. because working in front of a 420 oven all day is not hot at all, and you constantly don't have your hands and arms in dough all day long..

I used to go through at least two a day..

Strappie · 07-05-2010, 10:15 PM

I can't say I've ever in my life used female deodorant. I used my dads since I started using it. Then I ended up finding Degree "Sport" of men.... I love love love it!! lol

Scorp · 07-07-2010, 06:28 AM

I use Degree for men "cool rush" scent. It has a nice clean smell and I've been using that for ages.
