Me dumb male, me never use deodorant or perfume before (shower everyday tho). What brand or products should me do to smell good but in a low key way? Or just how to get start on the smell good journey in general. For reference, I live in a hot and humid place and I sweat quite a bit. Thanks you!
Be very careful about deodorant in general
Several brands (Old Spice, Axe, the ones focused on being manly mainly) are really hard on sensitive skin
In my case, I got chemical burns from more than a few of them
And trust me, there's little worse than having your armpits basically blister up and flake off like fish food
It's why I use Dove Men+Care Ultimate, it's basically the only one besides Arm & Hammer unscented that doesn't irritate me
Me too! Any of the blue gel ones are murder on my pits.
Seconding this, I had no idea why I kept getting huge burns on my pits for years. Turns out my skin hates aluminum being rubbed on it. Also, the anti-perspirants caused ingrown hairs a lot. I've had no trouble with natural or sensitive skin ones (basically unscented, no metals)
I've had good luck with degree deodorants, back when I was playing sports regularly it was the only thing I could find that didn't irritate my skin and could actually handle physical activity
