Shaki Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Do we really need it? Mine ran out 2 weeks ago, I keep forgetting to buy a new one and I haven't noticed any difference in my aroma (apart from not smelling of deodorant anymore). Does everyone here use deodorant? Take the 2 week no-deodorant challenge. Smell like yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flossie suvara Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 I stopped using spray deodorants about 6 years ago and now use solid aromarant deodorant from Lush (sandalwood) - I can heartily recommend it. (I did try the patchouli flavoured one, but it makes you smell like a hippy who has slept in a ditch)RegardsFlossie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 mmmm the solid stuff from lush is rather good, but i just use sure roll-on. otherwise i get a bit stinky sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitting in an office pretending to work doesn't break much sweat. I'm going to stick with it...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey_sc Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 As a lifeguard working on poolside when it's roasting without deodorant would not be pretty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davey_sc Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Don't be pedantic, it wouldn't SMELL pretty. Or gorgeous, or whatever adjective you want to fuss about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaki Posted March 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Mission aborted. Just home from practice. There is an odour society would deem unacceptable permeating the air when I raise my arms. Was worth a try but I guess that's 5 a month I need to spend.

Red Neck Man Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Fuck that, just let people put up with the stink. If they moan, at least you can say with confidence "it's all me, baby". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkaline Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Ahhhh, sunday morning practice. We used to whip up a storm in that small room in the Foyer with the combined smell of the previous days hard work + bed sweat + alcohol seeping from our pores + bovril drinks. Fucking lovely.

Benji Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Use dead gerbils to soak up the sweat.Simple method really - you'll need cellotape and two dead gerbils that fit perfectly in the socket of your pits.No deodorant required. You might wanna change the gerbils every few weeks though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Gold Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Grame's probably right. Mouth wash was invented before 'bad' breath anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey_sc Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Deodorant is just marketing hype convincing us that our natural smell is a bad smell...isn't it?Perhaps, but either way, it's engrained into our heads that you cannot smell like humans are meant to smell.

Sue Denim.. Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 I was out in the moorings last Friday and happened to share a table with both Garth and Hippy John. Believe me, deoderant would have certainly have stopped me from moving off to sit at the bar. I'm all for people doing their own thing but socially it's unacceptable to stink people off your table!

Teabags Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 To be honest, I don't mind Hippy John's smell,. I don't think it's offensive. And I've never smelt Garth.I put on deodorant this morning before work, and I'm not sweating and smell airy.Usually I fucking reek. Anyone who actually knows me can confirm this.

Bodast Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 Mitchum is ace - it's not like I need hardcore 48h protection (although it's good for sweaty gigs etc), most importantly it lets you proclaim to people that your deodorant is so effective you could even skip a day! tm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marillionboy Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 As well as being pretty necessary a lot of the time, deodorant is nice isn't it? I use Ted baker at the mo, and it makes me feel all clean and raring to go. Blimey, I sound like an advert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
