Thumbs up Recommendation for Great Deodorant?

I've been using Arid Gel for about 6 years now and in the last 3 months I'm feeling like the deodorant is not working so good anymore. I think they changed the formulas so now I'm searching for a good replacement.

What do you use that you love and thinks keeps you smelling pretty?

I do have sensitive skin.

I have always used Secret, and I think they do have a sensitive skin formula.

Hmmmm....now there's one I never tried. I used to use Soft and Dri but it started to give me a rash. Do you smell pretty?

I use Secret, too...sometimes fragrances and other additives can cause a rash, so I use fragrance-free everything just about -- laundry soap, etc. Love the smells, but hate the rash.

I use Degree Spectrum powder fresh. It's the creamy stuff that "dials up" from the dispenser but isn't like solid. I used Sure forever (probably ever since it first came out) and it stopped working all of a sudden. I wonder why that is?

I just switched to Ban unscented (although they have the ones that smell pretty too) about 4 months ago, cause the others I had used didn't seem to work. I really, really like the Ban. I use the roll on.

Whatever's on sale? ha ha ha I think I am using some sort of Arid stick thing now? I prefer unscented or very lightly scented (like powder fresh) cuz I do use fragrance once a while and don't want the smells to clash!

I'm really concerned about stopping bad odor! I can't believe how bad I think I smell lately at the end of the day. I wonder if it's a hormonal/perimenopausal thing?

Maybe I'll buy one of each kind recommended.

My absolute favorite is Secret, the Platinum line. The soft solid works the best. They have lots of good scents, and it's the only stuff that, as the commercials say, "keeps me dry all day." My mom and sister use it too...they got me hooked on it. I think they have a sensitive skin one. I have sensitive skin, and it's never bugged me. Make sure you look for Platinum on the label.

HaHaHa.....Melissa, I didn't see this post since this morning! Boy, I was horrified at the end of the day to take a sniff test. And, it's happening even when I just laid around all day. Either they changed the formula or my body changed. Probably impending memopause. It seems everything is blamed on that.
