Deodorants

Deodorant is one of the most personal daily care habits: it protects against unpleasant odour, stays with you all day and, when carefully chosen, respects the skin even in the most delicate areas. With over 2,800 products, our collection brings together conventional and natural formulas for every need in terms of effectiveness, skin sensitivity and preferred format.

How to choose the right deodorant for you

The first criterion is the difference between deodorant and antiperspirant: deodorant fights the bacteria that cause odour without blocking perspiration, while antiperspirant also reduces sweat production through aluminium salts. If you prefer to avoid these salts, opt for aluminium-free formulas based on ingredients such as bicarbonate, plant extracts or natural minerals. Format matters just as much: roll-ons ensure precise application, sprays are practical and quick-drying, and solid sticks are handy when travelling and often alcohol-free. Also check the duration stated on the label: 24, 48 or 72 hours of protection indicate how often to reapply.

A common mistake is overlooking the sensitivity of underarm skin, which is often stressed by shaving. In such cases, choose dermatologically tested formulas that are fragrance-free or lightly scented and suitable for reactive skin. If you play sports, look for products with long-lasting protection under physical stress. Finally, always read the INCI list: ingredients such as alcohol, parabens or colourants may irritate some people.

Frequently asked questions

Is aluminium-free deodorant as effective as a traditional one?

It depends on the formula and on your own physiology. Natural versions work mainly on odour, not on perspiration: they may need reapplying more often, but many people find them fully satisfactory for everyday use.

Can I use deodorant right after shaving?

It is best to wait a few minutes and choose alcohol-free and fragrance-free formulas designed specifically for sensitive or freshly shaved skin, to reduce the risk of redness and irritation.

Is there a deodorant suitable for children?

For little ones, always consult a paediatrician or pharmacist before introducing any specific product, and choose formulas designed for young, delicate skin with as few ingredients as possible.
