    a question of deodorant

    Is it me or has deodorant changed.

    I have never been able to use anti perspirent as it just cloggs my hairs up. So have always used deodorant

    Now I have noticed that after the smallest effort I start to get a bit 'minty'

    whilst checking the bottles of deodorant i have noticed that they are now called body spray.

    has a vital ingredient that made the underarm dew smell nice suddenly become a hazzard to our health and had to be removed?
    have tried several brands and all are the same adidas/gillette/lynx.

    whats happened to my deodorant!!!!!!
    I have to shower everyday now and sometimes that is not enough anymore.

    Are you sure you are on the correct forum here ?

    Bikers are smelly bastards - thats how it is - why are you asking us ???

    Seriously though - maybe it's you thats changed ?? have you altered your diet at all ?? it's a know fact that too much dairy product in your diet can cause you to wiff a bit from the region, know in Scotland as - "the oxters"

    I have a house , but I can't guarantee it's safe !!

    You`ll be needing an anti perspirant deodorant,mate.

    Whether roll on or spray is up to you.

    If you are prone to getting sweaty/smelly then try a 'Sports' or 'Active' anti perspirant deodorant.



    'Body sprays' are just cheapo smell masks worn by sad Dads when they go out 'on the town' of a Saturday night.....

    definatley a deodorant issue

    I remember going to Glastonbury in 1995 and didnt wash for 4 days, just a can of lynx africa and i smelt sweet as a daisy.

    maybe I just got older fatter and sweatier

    my main worry is that I am moving back to Spain in a few months and am worries about the natsy niff problems. hopefully the spanish wont have the problem with the hazzardous ingrediant and a can of 'Axe' africa will do the job
