Application and Texture

Pros:

  • "I love how smooth it goes on."
  • "It glides on super easy."
  • "Also it goes on pretty clean without clumping or taking too much of the deodorant off the stick."
  • "It goes on smooth without any clumping, dried quickly once applied."
  • "The deodorant is a slightly translucent, mostly solid white bar, it glides on the skin clear and easily."
  • "Upon application, it glides smoothly onto the skin without leaving any sticky or greasy residue behind."
  • "The deodorant glides on super easy and almost feels a little wet going on."

Cons:

  • "It constantly feels sticky and doesn't keep me dry at all."
  • "A few of the times I applied it, it made my underarms feel sticky."
  • "Makes armpits sticky too."
  • "When applying to the pits, the layer you put down is kind of pasty feeling and very soft!"
  • "Leaves my pits with a coating that is kind of dry but tacky."
  • "Smells great but leaves a sticky feel."
  • "It's only good for 4 to 6 hours."

Scent

Pros:

  • "The scent is coming off with a bit of musky forward scent with hints of earthy tones."
  • "Works well, smells good."
  • "The scent is pleasant, and it doesn't break my 13-year-old son out."
  • "These deodorants are good. The smell is subtle and just enough."
  • "This Dove Forest Sunset deodorant has a very pleasant aroma that does last for quite some time."
  • "Scent is mild but fresh and not super cologne-y smelling."
  • "The Extra Fresh fragrance offers a pleasant and rejuvenating aroma that leaves a lasting impression."

Cons:

  • "However Dove recently changed the scent formula and now it's this weird, sweet 'citrus' smell that is completely different and way worse than the old scent."
  • "It went from a light citrus scent to about overwhelming coconut-like disgusting smell."
  • "It is this awful, sickly sweet, very strong tropical/citrus scent that you can smell from rooms away."
  • "The scent is very much overbearing, and not the best smell you can go for at all."
  • "The new version has an overpowering citrus scent, lacking the subtle cleanliness that we've grown accustomed to over the past decade."
  • "However, neither one of us are too fond of this scent."
  • "I have to agree with the other reviewers that the new scent is much too strong."

Value and Packaging

Pros:

  • "Much cheaper buying them this way vs one at a time in a store."
  • "Cost through AMZN is comparable or cheaper than buying local."
  • "The price is great for a 3-pack, in my opinion."
  • "It's economical overall because the size is large and not a lot needs to be used."
  • "These are good-sized deodorant sticks, and with three of them in the pack, this should last my son for a very long time."
  • "I love the pack that you can get because then you don’t need to think about getting more for a while and always have one on hand for when you run out!"
  • "This is probably the cheapest way to buy it."

Cons:

  • "The single deodorants are usually priced too high to be a good value."
  • "The packaging is flimsier than usual Dove packaging and each unit is only half-full."
  • "At a price of over $20 for a set of three sticks of deodorant, I would say it’s a bit pricey."
  • "all four sticks of deodorant are missing 1/3 to 1/2 of the stick."
  • "I got sent 2 Out of 4 deodorants with nothing inside of them."
  • "Received my regular shipment of Dove deodorant, and some of the containers never had anything in them from the beginning and were 100% empty."
  • "I did only receive 1 out of the 2 though."

Skin Reaction and Comfort

Pros:

  • "It doesn't cause any irritation or discomfort, even after prolonged use."
  • "I could finally say goodbye to rashes and non lasting scent."
  • "This product does, and it has been gentle on my skin."
  • "It goes on well, lasts long, doesn't itch."
  • "It's nonirritating and gentle."
  • "I havnen't gotten a rash or felt irritated at all in a month of using it."
  • "This stuff is great. No irritation, doesn’t feel like you have wax melted onto your armpits and the smell is subtle."

Cons:

  • "Sometimes it can still cause slight burning."
  • "They lasted 48hrs, but eventually made my underarms turn red."
  • "Red irritated rashes that were sensitive to the touch."
  • "The bad news… it caused very uncomfortable irritation."
  • "This deodorant left a horrible skin rash/burn that will not go away on BOTH my husband and myself."
  • "I also developed a rash."
  • "But what did I get in return? Skin rashes, stained clothes, and a laundry list of disappointments."
