I really like this deodorant. Not only does it work, it’s natural and smells good. The scent is a bit middle eastern, very balanced. I only wish Schmidt’s would bring back the red cedar scent. That was my favorite.

First off, I really like this deodorant. Had been a long time user of a competitor from Maine, but felt it wasn’t giving all day protection. Tried this based on positive reviews. I like the sandalwood scent, it’s woody without being overly strong. The product itself is very thick, a little goes a long way and easily lasts me all day.All this said, when prepping a used container for recycling, I noticed holes at the bottom of the plunger inside the tube. An Internet search tells me these are used to allow bubbles to escape the product as it cools during production. However, over time as I use the product, it gets pushed through those holes like play dough through the bottom. I scooped it out just to see how much I lost and applied it daily with my fingers and came up with 10 days worth.If the manufacturer reads this, please address this. I love the product, just wish I didn’t have to choose between wasting deodorant and working around a flaw in design.

Seems to be pretty effective after 2 weeks of using. Similar texture to the Sasquatch deodorant brand. Easy to put on, keeps me dry, and works all day. The price is a little high but at the moment I think it's worth it.

Wow! This is the only aluminum free deodorant that lasts me all day. I work outside in all sorts of weather and I never have to reapply. It smells so good. I love this product

TL;DRMy radiation oncologist swears by Schmidt’s. I give this deodorant 4.5 stars. I am continuing to buy (I don’t steal) and use the Lavender-Sage and Lime-Bergamot scented sticks. Recommend.*Full disclosure: I have breast cancer: surgery and lymph node removal made my skin sensitive, the chemo made my skin weird and picky, radiation made me switch to aluminum-free deodorants, and aromatase inhibitors are making me achy and complain-y.*Also, I’m stinky. My family members have superhuman senses of smell. They let me know immediately when I have the slightest hint of body odor. I am a water dog among sniffer dogs.I have yet to find any deodorant, antiperspirant aluminum-filled or not, that works for more than 10 hours before somebody in my family makes gagging noises around me.*About aluminum-free deodorants-they require I do more work than regular antiperspirants. I cannot simply apply them over my existing deodorant when they start to fail.*I have to follow this routine with all my non-aluminum deodorants:(1) Wash my armpits, using a washcloth and some kind of soap, until I can smell and feel no trace of deodorant or body odor. This may take several tries. Wipes don’t cut it, though the Lume and Pacifica ones will buy me some time if I’m in a lurch. I have perfected the Navy shower.(2) Swipe on my armpits some witch hazel (if I can stand the scent) or Estée Lauder Soft Clean (expensive pink bottle of non-alcohol toner) (on horrible nausea days) to get rid of any residue I’ve missed, and to make my pits the right bit of damp I need to absorb the deodorant. I did this in the changing room after each radiation session (I had to have my armpits and body free of all lotions and deodorants and possible metals for each session).(3) Turn up the stick a little bit and hold the stick deodorant to my armpit until my body heat softens it, then swipe it 2-3 times to cover my entire armpit. Repeat on other armpit.(4) Rub the deodorant into my skin as if it were mineral sunscreen. I always apply too much, so I dab off the excess with the cloth I used to swipe the witch hazel/toner on my armpits.(5) Wave my arms in the air to make sure it dries. Dancing to music or praying makes this socially acceptable; doing both simultaneously helps with social distancing in the locker room. Note: This is a good time to brush my hair and apply sunscreen, while avoiding my family seeing me do my toilette with my elbows out like a chicken. If I’m drying my hair, I’ll blow cold setting air on them if I’m sure nobody’s looking.(6) Put on dark shirts very carefully. I always get white marks when I use non-gel deodorants, even before I went the non-aluminum route. I’ve mastered this skill. My family is not impressed though they should be. I wish it were a marketable skill.(7) Sniff myself, then sneak past my family downwind.*I have four different kinds of sweat, and here’s how long Schmidt’s works for each one before I stink:Bedtime overnight sweat: 10 hours, Navy shower as soon as out of bed.Hot weather sweat: 6-8, keep a shirt change in bag and at work.Exercise sweat: my sweat doesn’t stink, but a Navy shower is still a must because the rest of me will get stinky if I delay (Lume or Pacifica deodorant wipes, plus Schmidt’s steps 3-7 if I can’t use soap and water).Stress sweat: 4-5 hours.*Schmidt’s is one of the few deodorants that lasts this long; no other deodorant lasts longer.My radiation oncologist told me not to bother with any other aluminum-free deodorants.*Still, the lumpectomy and lymph node removal resulted in lymphedema and in making my right upper arm and armpit so sensitive that I hated sleeves (they still feel odd). For a while Schmidt’s felt gritty, so I had to try other aluminum-free deodorants.*I’m so longer so sensitive, and I use Schmidt’s all the time. I chose the lavender-sage and lime-bergamot, because I can tolerate lavender and citrus smells on bad nausea days.*I’m still using Schmidt’s, even though my radiation treatment has ended, because I always ended up sweating a little when I wore aluminum-antiperspirants, I want to sweat a lot when I’m at the gym so nobody thinks I’m a slacker, and if I use aluminum free deodorant maybe I’ll get to avoid a cancer recurrence and more radiation treatment. Magical thinking like when I carry an umbrella it won’t rain.Get the deodorant-it works.
