Lume Whole Body Deodorant - Invisible Cream Tube - 72 Hour Odor Control - Aluminum Free, Baking Soda Free, Skin Safe - 3.0 ounce (Unscented)

Afraid of the STINK many are complaining about? Okay...so I tried every single one of Lume's scents and hands down the BEST scent is the one I thought I would like the least, it's the Toasted Coconut. The other scents DO have a strange scent to them upon first application, but honestly ALL of them work, they really do. Here's the secret to using this product, RESIST the temptation to smell the cream straight out of the bottle. Just don't do it. Ewwww! You'll hate it! Instead, just ignore what your nose is telling you and put the stuff on! No! Don't smell your pits immediately! I told you not to! LOL! (I am serious don't do it!)Give it a try and trust the stuff will work and put your clothes on and get dressed. Later when you remove your clothing before bed that's the time to do your scent investigation. Or for the more adventurous among us, have someone else do the scent investigation for you. Sniff those pits or "other" places you chose to slather this stuff all over and I swear these places won't smell at all or they will have a soft lavender, coconut, or whatever scent you chose...even the non-scented one that smells downright putrefying right out of the bottle will not smell at all on your skin after wearing it awhile...instead you'll just be scent-free and smell-free. Give the underarms of your t-shirt a sniff after wearing it all day and you'll only smell lovely lavender, coconut, etc... In fact, this stuff works so well that I asked my husband to use it--on some of his other parts, and WOW holy guacamole am I a believer! ;) After THAT experience he is definitely motivated to use this stuff daily! (You just gotta reward good behavior!) LOL!Finally, to recap, DO NOT try to smell what you're looking for in a scent directly from the bottle or even right after you apply it... it needs time...seasoning for an hour or so, and then you'll be pleased as punch! Delay your need for instant fragrance gratification, modify your expectations for what scents you expect to come from the bottle and instead focus on the outcome (maybe focus on your WHY)...body odor will not occur if you use this after showering. We shower daily so I cannot comment on the 72hr nature of this body deodorant.Oh, and as far as scent choices go, I did try all of the scents and I like the way the toasted coconut mellows out to LATER, lavender mellows out nicely too so it's my second choice and for times that I don't want any scent as no scent is nice too, the unscented version is perfect (but only after time has passed on your skin...definitely a horrible smell after just applying it, but only if you stick your nose up to it. Ignore the scent at first, tell yourself it's going to be ok and let it ride... let it sit and do it's thing and it will disappear into a gorgeous UNSCENTED version. Just don't pay attention to how awful the unscented one is at first, buuuuut I promise you if you give it a few hours you won't be disappointed! I hope this helps you sift through your dilemma when you read ALL the reviews talking about the "stink"... patience grasshopper!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I tried this product along with the deodorant stick after my niece told me about how great they work. I saw the commercials, and didn’t want to try the product because they didn’t make the product look like something I needed or even wanted to try. As a heavy person, my skin under my boobs and stomach apron would get irritated no matter how much antibacterial soap and powders I used (and I tried so many powder options). While visiting my family I noticed how nice my niece smelled after her shower, and she said it was the Lume deodorant that she was using to help the skin irritation under her boobs. We got a travel stick for me to try, and it was amazing at helping keep my skin dry and got rid of the irritation! I got the full size stick to use under my boobs and in my side folds, and the lotion to use under my apron because I found it easier to get the lotion version spread around down there vs. trying to use the stick version. With constant use, I have had no skin irritation for a year now and no longer sweat in all the wrong places while out in the unmerciful hot and humid Florida heat. It smells amazing (I love the coconut one), and it works really well. I put it on after my shower, and it really does last 72 hours. It does dry quickly, and if your skin is irritated it will sting a bit as you put it on, but your skin will thank you for using it very quickly afterwards as the Lume smooths it. It’s a little pricy for deodorant, but if you are a curvy girl it is worth every penny!

LOVE Lume cream deodorants, but this had almost too much coconut scent.I am disabled and my shower is a bit treacherous for me- combined with pain and fluctuating energy levels, I can't shower very often. In between showers, I use bath wipes and Lume to get me through and the Lume honestly does the heavy lifting. I use it in all the standard areas (pits, underboobs, privates, feet, etc) and no matter what scent I use, it dries to odorless within a minute.The only problem with the vanilla scent is there's a definite coconut note, and I absolutely hate the smell of coconut. HATEIT.Thankfully, the scent fades quickly, although I can still smell a tiny hint of vanilla for several hours. In a pleasant way, and with no trace of coconut.Definitely performs the way I expected it to- I love the Lume cream deodorants (not a fan of the antiperspirant varieties) and I've continued to use the vanilla in the same ways I use the other scents, and it just.....works. Nobody wants to smell like they can't shower as often as they'd like, and this helps me maintain some dignity.I'm not sure if I'll stay with the vanilla when I order again (which will take a while, these tubes last forever)- I need to go back to the powder scent for a bit and see which I prefer.If you like coconut and vanilla, I'm sure you'll love this scent! But if you're like me, it *might* be a bit too coconutty for you.
