The Ilex Wood Natural Deodorant - 2.4fl oz. Handmade, Aluminum Salt Free, Plastic Free, Cruelty and Alcohol Free, Vegan, Eco Friendly Cardboard Tube – Ylang Ylang & Cedarwood (Sweet & Woody)

I was looking for something without lavender, aluminum-free, and handmade, and this deodorant really stood out to me. It might not have a "strong" scent like most people are used to like, but that’s the beauty of using essential oils: the products don’t contain artificial fragrances. In terms of effectiveness, it works surprisingly well, but of course, don’t expect it to last for three days straight, since it’s a natural product. I stay fresh throughout the day and I take a shower every day. I also love how gentle it feels on my skin; it’s very smooth and non-irritating. If the deodorant doesn’t seem to last all day for you, it might be worth checking in on your digestion generally, body odor shouldn’t be that strong if everything’s balanced internally. The deodorant does its job, and that’s what really matters. I hope they come out with more versions, since I’m trying to avoid lavender altogether. Would I buy it again? Yes, definitely.

Excellent product. Works great for over 24 hours. I love the smell, texture, and that it has all natural ingredients. I have sensitive skin and I have been using this product for over a week and have not have any irritation to my skin. Will buy it again for sure

Expensive for the amount and length it lasts, unfortunately. It doesn't last long, feels tacky. Smells wonderful while it lasts.

I currently see a Rheumatologist for some health issues I've been experiencing recently. A question that I was asked surprised me, but it was, "Do you get itchy?" Long story short, I did struggle with an itchy scalp, armpits, and ears. The recommendation was to replace my cleansing items (shampoo, deodorant, feminine wash, etc.) with items that contain Tea Tree Oil. Since using this deodorant, my armpits do not itch ever! I am so pleasantly surprised how drastic of a change this product made for me. The smell is nice and clean, but not overly strong so you aren't getting whiffs of yourself all day. (good or bad? you decide) It was delivered not long after I'd ordered it, which is nice since I live in a very rural area. The packaging is unique, made from paper products (like cardboard) and it is a push up from the bottom type of dispenser instead of turning a dial. My only thing is that I don't have sweaty pits, nor do I suffer from very bad body odor. So, if that is something you struggle with, it may not fight off odor as well as you'd need.

Great stuff! This is my second order!

Instructions claim that the bar itself won't have much odor until it warms up with contact in your skin. I did a test run on my wrist. It smelled all of 5 minutes after use and it did not smell like patchouli and vanilla. Real odd smell. I will try for a refund but doubtful since it's a hygiene product. Don't waste your money on this crap! I'll just buy essential oils and make my own deodorant. Seems like in shrinkflation everyone is not putting scents in natural deodorants anymore to keep their prices the same. I had to stop using another brand because they did that. I'm wondering if this brand did that too or they never smelled much to begin with. It also has a very oily residue that will just definitely get on clothing that is nice. If you wear dark cotton fabrics you might not notice.

This stuff is amazing, I was on a quest to find a replacement for the now-discontinued Bull Dog Cedarwood & Patchouli deodorant, and this is more that I could have expected. It keeps a nice, non-melty texture for being a natural product and holds the scent for an impressively long time. The smell of pine is as prominent as the patchouli, akin to vacuuming up needles from the Christmas Tree while burning patchouli incense which, despite the strange description, is one of the best combinations that I have ever come across.

The one pro about this is the scent. Smells really good. There are several cons, though: it’s way more small than what you’d expect, almost travel size. You push it up from the bottom when applying, but it’s so soft that just a few swipes and a significant amount is gone. It also leaves a lot of gritty bits behind that are annoying. For the price, not worth it at all. I really wanted to like this, but it’s just a disappointment.

Super déodorant moi qui déteste l'odeur de la transpiration j'ai enfin trouvé un déodorant qui couvre cette odeur avec une bonne senteur épicée on a pas besoin d'en mettre beaucoup je recommande

Fantástico! Llevo un tiempo en perimenopausia y los desodorantes de siempre ya no duraban no medio día porque enseguida sentía que olía mal (quien este en mi situación lo entenderá). No tenía mucha confianza en este porque pensaba que algo natural no me quitaría el mal olor, pero qué equivocada estaba! Me encanta, es duradero, no mancha, no lleva productos tóxicos ni aluminio. No volveré a comprar los de antes. Muy satisfecha.

Best natural deodorant I’ve ever used.

Il prodotto viene spedito con imballo di plastica, contenente un biglietto, in inglese e tedesco che ne descrive le caratteristiche, e la storia dell' azienda. Data la particolarità del contenitore (cartoncino) penso che l' imballo in plastica serva a proteggerlo da pioggia e umidità, cosa che non farebbe un ulteriore imballo in carta o cartoncino. Come detto la confezione è in cartoncino, sembra abbastanza robusta per l' utilizzo che se ne deve fare, a condizione di tenerla lontano dall' umidità e dall' acqua. Il profumo: Ylang ylang e cedro è ottimo, subito molto intenso, ma piano piano si attenua fino ad armonizzarsi con il calore della pelle. Dura qualche ora e non tutto il giorno, anche se non perde la capacità di deodorare, in estate e con il caldo si arriva tranquillamente a sera. Ovviamente va applicato au pelle pulita, primo perché NON COPRE gli odori, secondo si rischiano spiacevoli reazioni, trattandosi di prodotto naturale. Ora che fa caldo, non dà problemi, non lascia residui e scorre bene. Vedremo in inverno come si comporta. La durata è limitata alla giornata, per quanto mi riguarda è ottima, anche in giornate particolarmente calde dove sudo molto, poi, ovviamente ciascuno ha le sue esigenze. Sconsiglio di usarlo subito dopo che ci si è depilate le ascelle (è scritto anche nel foglietto allegato alla confezione), essendo composto da olio essenziali, potrebbe creare irritazioni e fastidio sulla pelle.

I prefer products that are natural and gentle on the skin. This deodorant is natural, gentle and keeps the smell at bay. I like this product. Yes, the fragrance does fade over time, but it keeps you odour-free.
