Salt & StoneDeodorant | Extra Strength Natural Deodorant for Women & Men | Aluminum Free with Seaweed Extracts, Shea Butter & Probiotics (Mini Deodorant Discovery Set)

From the moment I twisted up the sleek charcoal‑gray tube, this aluminum‑free stick felt more like a niche fragrance than a basic toiletry. The Santal & Vetiver blend opens with a soft wood‑smoke note that mellows into something cozy and skin‑like—noticeable without shouting. The texture starts a touch firm but warms quickly, leaving a clear layer that feels more like a lightweight balm than wax. At 2.6 ounces the tube is larger than many natural alternatives, which helps soften the sticker shock of the $20 price tag.Performance has been better than I expected for a botanical formula. On regular workdays it keeps odor at bay well past bedtime, and I haven’t seen any of the chalky build‑up that plagues baking‑soda sticks. Weekend hikes during Florida humidity did call for a midday swipe, but the reapplication went on just as clean. Friends who’ve tried other scents in the line—Black Rose & Oud seems to be the cult favorite—report similar longevity, so it isn’t just this fragrance pulling the weight. I also like knowing there’s seaweed extract, shea butter, and prebiotics in the mix, which might explain why my skin hasn’t protested the switch from drugstore antiperspirants.There are quirks, though. If you press too hard, the creamy base can smudge onto collars and certain synthetic fabrics, leaving faint darker marks that need a stain stick. The first few uses can feel a little scratchy until the top layer smooths out, and the packaging—as luxe as it looks—heads straight to the trash once empty. A refill option or recyclable insert would go a long way toward justifying the premium feel. Still, if you’re hunting for a natural deodorant that actually performs and smells sophisticated enough to double as a subtle personal scent, this one earns a spot on the bathroom shelf.

This really works! I’ve been using Native for about a year now. It works most of the time—ok, not great. Decided to give this a try as it has a different formulation. My pits have been stink free through all kinds of sweaty situations! I had read comments that some people are sensitive to the baking soda or something in this, but luckily that hasn’t been my experience. Scent level I would say is similar to the Native, noticeable but not to the level of replacing perfume as some claim. I might try a different scent next time. The Santal and Vetiver I would describe as somewhat masculine.

If I was to rate this on effectiveness, I would honestly give it a 2 out of 5. This is one of the very few deodorants that, if I use it, I will actually start to stink before my next shower. But, on the flipside, if I could rate it on scent alone, I'd give it a 6 out of 5. It really smells SO good to the point that I still buy it to apply it as a mild cost effective form of solid cologne instead. So because of this, I still buy it, but only for the scent alone. If it was more effective as a deodorant, it would be an easy 5 stars just based on the pureness and scent. I just find it to not be effective enough for day to day underarm use.

This deodorant really surprised me! It smells wonderful- clean and crisp. It lasts for a very long time, maybe 20 hours, before you have to reapply. I do 👏🏽not 👏🏽 sweat 👏🏽 when this is applied under my arms. My armpits are dry as the Sahara and smell fantastic after a workout! It’s totally remarkable!! When I apply it, it doesn’t glide on smooth- it has a gritty feel to it, but that is ok with me. Let me tell you: I am so confident with this on, I simply cannot believe it is natural!! No aluminum!!? What?! Lifetime customer 🙋🏽‍♀️ right here

I wasn't sure which fragrance I'd prefer, so I chose to buy the sample pack and it was a great idea. It came in a timely fashion without any issues, too. I can sometimes sweat a lot, including at work, and this is one of the few deodorants that last through the sweat and can still be smelled the next morning. The effectiveness is incredible! Each fragrance smelled great and it was apparent right away that each stick was of a high quality. I don't have the most sensitive of skins, but I didn't experience any irritation or notice it on my clothes. Highly recommended

The deodorant really does mask odor. I don’t think i ever smelled of BO or sweat while using for a whole day. I don’t know much about the fragrance they use, but I’ve been told it’s synthetic, i need to do the research myself. I also noticed that the formula would dry and get hard and sticky in the crevices of my arm pit. It would become pretty tedious in the shower to remove and caused irritation. BUT a little over a week or so of using my arm pits broke out in a red painful rash. I have not been able to use anything but witch hazel on them this week.If you have sensitive skin, i wouldnt recommend. I would also defer you to research and find out what their fragrance is derived from since that will be going straight into your lymphatic system.

Ok finding a deordarant (w/o aluminum)has been the hardest things !Here is my honest review …The smell is Awesome! Amazing !However, for me I have to reapply midday …Maybe it’s takes my body adjusting …Best one so far yet that I’ve tried !Feed back to sellers if you could add something to make it last a little longer would be top seller ..Also I am very sensitive… ( I sweat in my under arms pits purfusely )That has stopped since I began using also did not irrate my skin … A must try !
