Cons:

• "When I first apply it to my underarms it creates a smell similar to stinky feet."
• "It smells great but it doesn't last. Within 5 hours, I can smell it wearing off."
• "The scent does not last very long. Three hours into a desk job day (not labor intensive) I started smelling like BO."
• "This one smells like vapor rub with a hint of citrus."
• "The tea tree scent does Not smell like True tea tree oil but some chemical that's made to smell like it."
• "If you really really love lavender then you will be over the moon with this deodorant. If you like lavender just a little bit then skip this one, it’s not for you. The scent is overpowering."

Cons:

• "It’s very sticky feeling and I can’t stand that."
• "After a week or 2 of using I was left with a rash and massive dark spots on my underarms."
• "It is WAY too soft. I go through sticks too quickly for one of three reasons:1) it melts down into the bottom of the tube where it can't be advanced2) the auger doesn't advance it - it just slips/spins3) it breaks off as you apply it."
• "This stuff is sticky and hard to get off."
