Viking Revolution Sandalwood Deodorant for Men - Aluminum Free with Shea Butter and Tapioca Starch - Stain- Free and Baking Soda-Free - Natural Deodorant for Men (2.65oz)

Great smell and glides on smooth. It's a low key scent that keeps my natural funk from coming through compared to other deodorants that smell so strong it's almost like cologne. I recently have developed rashes from deodorant and really struggled to find one that didn't irritate my skin but also was not a thick gooey paste. This is the one. On some hot days I may have to reapply after 6 hours but that's not a big deal. Smells good and doesn't give me a rash, that's five stars in my book.

Thought I would try this deodorant a mistake. Bought it in 12/2024 - thought I'd give it a chance before I reviewed it. It neither resembles anything said about it in the company write up on Amazon nor works at all as a deodorant. I am glad that one person liked it because it is cardboard and thus saves trees (my words interpreting what reviewer says). However, it does not save my armpits from smelling like they had no deodorant; i. e. it does not work. I am 85, switched from Mitchum (which always works especially in the modified formula) to see if the scent which people. The cardboard container is lousy, the deodorant stick part does not stay up - either have to put fingers in to hold it up or squeeze card board container to do so. Almost everything I buy on Amazon over the past years that I have taken the time to rate gets a 5, occasional 4 - first time I ever rated something a 1. This is it - does not work as advertised, shoddy cardboard container, and the fact that it advertises no aluminum is a come on for probably some purchasers here. I did not buy it for the "no" aluminum because aluminum is not harmful as virtually all tests over the years have shown especially as now formulated. There is not one single reliable study that has shown this - I am back to Mitchum which will show as a purchase for me recently on Amazon. Thought I'd "pretty up" my arm pits for wife of 60 years (come June) but she noticed it did not work good; and noticed the contortions I have to make to hold deodorant stick up. Sorry, know the makers are trying, dont know why Amazon put it on site. I guess in this day of so many bad crowd funding products this might fit in as a bad crowdfunding product if that's how it came about.

I purchased the Coffee & Whiskey scent. Smells great when you first open it up and put it on. Once you start to sweat, the scent is terrible. I would shower in the morning, apply the deodorant, and head out the door. My job is fairly inactive but it's pretty warm in the office and I run warm most of the time anyway. Either way, sitting in an office chair should not give my pits a reason to smell like they haven't been washed in over a month. I tried everything while showering to make sure the pits were clean. The stench started to stick around even after a shower. I've not been able to finish the stick because I cannot get past the insane body odor this deodorant puts off. This is not a deodorant as it does not deodorize.

First off, this is a well made product and I feel bad giving it 3 stars, but 3 stars are the most honest reviews, and here is my honest take:I like the packaging and branding. I ordered a sampler pack of their solid colognes and liked the Oud scent, so I went ahead and purchased the beard oil, balm, full-size solid cologne and the Oud deodorant. Out of the tube, the deodorant smells great; however, I believe the main ingredient reacts poorly with my body’s chemistry.Within minutes, my armpits and shirt just smell acrid and nasty. I had just showered and my wife thought one our tweens had BO, but I’m sure it was me.All of the other products are good. The balm, oil, and cologne seem to blend right in to my natural aroma, though I do think the cologne is a bit weak. I use it as more of a skin conditioner, applying a much larger quantity than recommended to my arms and legs. The smell is barely noticeable after a few minutes, which is fine. It seems to be a good “neutralizer” for the bad smells and leaves me smelling clean and slightly woodsy.TLDR; it’s a nice scent, but it reacts badly in my underarm environment. If you know the acrid smell I’m talking about from using other products, avoid this one.

Okay this is literally the best smelling deodorant I have EVER bought! When I lift my arms I keep thinking I have a candle burning and then realize oh that amazing smell is my underarms. It has great quality, it is extremely effective for the entire day, and it leaves my skin feeling sooooo soft! I do have sensitive skin and has absolutely no irritation! If these haven’t already sold me, I’m most excited because I’m trying to find a more natural way to deodorize and this is an important step to reduce my carbon footprint. I am doing my part in reducing plastic waste! This encasement is made of what feels like a flintstone/orange sherbert push pop dessert! It’s lighter than a toilet paper roll but it holds strong to grip the bar of deodorant! I am always excited to buy Viking Revolution products.

My original review is below. While the product does not work they apologized and refunded my money. Didn’t even ask for me to remove or edit my review. That’s a good company and a good business model.I don’t have a bad BO problem but I do need deodorant. I have sensitive underarms so I was looking something natural. I’ve give it a fair run and have almost used up the stick.This stuff works for a total of 3 hrs. Take a shower and boom I smell myself in 3 hrs. Utterly useless.
