Whole Body Deodorant - Smooth Solid Stick - 72 Hour Odor Control - Aluminum Free, Baking Soda Free and Skin Safe - 2.6 Ounce (Clean Tangerine)

I have a fragrance contact allergy to linalool which means that I cannot use anything with natural or artificial fragrance. No botanical oils or extracts at all. In addition, certain chemicals are considered cross reactors and therefore I have to avoid those as well. Add to that my vitamin E (tocopherol) contact allergy and finding a deodorant that is safe for me and actually works is near impossible. I couldn't use the original unscented cream stick deodorant because while labeled unscented, it's not actually considered fragrance free due to the aloe leaf juice, isoamyl laurate, lauryl alcohol, sodium benzoate and cocoa butter. Plus it has vitamin E in it. I use the SkinSafe app to find products that are safe for me per my Mayo Clinic dermatologist. I have tried every safe deodorant and none have worked. Some caused rash despite saying they are safe, but most just don't work. They may for a couple hours then they stop. Another thing to consider is will it leave white marks or stain clothing (oil stains can be really hard to remove). The Lume Unscented/fragrance free solid deodorant recently appeared on my safe list and I jumped to try it. First I want to address the smell because I see people complaining about it smelling like all kinds of weird things such as vinegar, mildew, urine, etc. THIS PRODUCT SMELLS NOTHING LIKE ANY OF THOSE THINGS! Please do not be scared off by those reviews. I have a keen sense of smell since I live a fragrance free life so nothing is dulling my senses. The unscented solid has a light smell which is a result of the raw ingredients in it. The whole point in making a product that is free of scents (including masking fragrances) is to have a product free of both natural and artificial fragrance. When you do that, the natural smells of the ingredients will come through, though they are never strong and don't really linger. This product's ingredients give it a smell that is like a mix of citronella and calamine but not as strong as either one. I can smell it if I put my nose up to it or if I sniff my armpits within an hour of application, but that's it, and after that it just fades away. It is not a bad or offensive smell (much better than BO) even if it's not a scent someone with the luxury of using fragrance would choose. For people like me, it's beautiful because it's safe. I don't get to choose what anything smells like. My conditioner smells like cooking oil, my soap smells like glycerin and and my hair gel smells like plastic and vinegar. I couldn't care less. All that matters to me is that it is safe and will not cause terrible, itchy, oozing rashes that take months and a lot of prescriptions to clear, and that it serves it's purpose. I'm grateful to Lume for creating a product for me and the millions of people like me. On to performance! Day one I applied only 1-2 swipes per arm as instructed but I did start to smell some faint BO after a couple of hours in the 106 degree AZ heat. The next day I washed it off and applied 3 swipes per arm. I went all day without smelling anything. When I got up the next day I could smell light BO if I put my nose to my armpit which is fine. It says it eliminates odor all day (that's one day) and controls odor for 72 hours (meaning it will lessen the odor on days 2 & 3 but not eliminate it) so it did what it said it would do. I've been using it for two weeks now and have not had any adverse reactions. I will update if I do. I am happy that it works and I haven't seen marks on my clothes, it feels nice and smooth going on and doesn't feel wet or sticky after it rubs in. I highly recommend it if you truly need a product free of artificial and natural fragrance.

Best deodorant I have found. I was looking for a natural deodorant. I got on to AI and asked what are some natural ways to combat odor. One that AI highly recomended was to raise the acidity of the armpit to prevent the bacteria from growing. The bacteria is what causes the smell. I bought a stick and used it per the instructions. It worked flawlessly, and it sustained the odor protection well over a day. I am very pleased with the results.

I have purchased every scent sold in stick and cream varieties now just to try them. Pros and cons: The creams are absolutely disgusting. I’d rather smell my own stank coupled with everyone else's than like a putrid wet dog decaying in a garbage dump and rotting veggies in the fridge- its absolutely awful. Sorry Lume but this needs some revamping-big time. I do not understand why it needs to smell so foul when wet. Especially for this price. Once they all dry they are better and work like magic but the wet smell takes your breath away. Literally no body odors occur with these products even after workouts in the summer heat and I love that part though so I stay faithful to purchasing the unscented stick. Unless you can handle the rancid smell of every single one of the creams while they are still wet…you also better stick with the solid stick in unscented like we do. Too bad they are always out of stock because I have it on subscribe and save for all six of us females and the one and only male in our family. Bottom line is its a great product and works, if you can get past the nasty scent when the cream is wet or the scented sticks. Personally I cannot and I do not know anyone who can, even when we spayed aerosol deodorants over them just so we wouldn't gag I feel nauseous over the smell and another thing to note is once its in your clothes-it buys real estate and never leaves-like a bad neighbor. Gross.

Attention ladies suffering from changes in your usual smell thanks to perimenopausal and menopausal hormone changes!! Because the chin hair wasn’t bad enough! The story goes like this…..I’m getting in bed and I’m moving the sheets around etc getting comfy and I smell this smell…like the Lumie lady says lol! Anyway I look at my husband whom I totally know is the culprit and ask if he forgot his deodorant to which he replies, “NO”. Hmmmm could it be me?? No way but I take a sniff anyway and to my surprise, IT WAS MY PITS!!! Horrified! I had never had that smell before. Thanks Mother Nature! This went on every night for a week or two. The deodorant I had used literally my whole adult life was failing my hormonally imbalanced armpits! A search for a new deodorant began. Not only did I need to eliminate that smell, I also wanted to kick the aluminum can out of my deodorant, so I went on a search for something different. I tried Schmidt’s with Charcoal and nope, still stinky, albeit less but still stinky. Then I decided to try Lumie after seeing the “smell that smell” lady over and over on social media. Let me tell you, it worked immediately and for the full 72 hours like she claims! No more Mother Nature smelly pits for me!! I love it! I have been using it for over a month now with no mind boggling odors emanating from myself! Here are my two warnings about the product. 1) it burns if you put it on right after you’ve shaved your armpits and 2) not everyone’s skin can handle it. I bought it for my hubby too and it burned him, made his skin itch and it eventually peeled. So just beware of those things. Otherwise, I am super pleased and no longer have smelly armpits to try to blame on my innocent hubby!

I've been using Lume for over a year now. Best deodorant I have ever used. It's made from natural ingredients. I have tried natural deodorants before, and they were awful. None did the job and I'd end up with a rash for my trouble. Also, you can't use those brands on other parts of your body. Lume lasts for days (and yes, I tested that out while on vacation). The only drawback was the scent, which I put up with because it normally dissipated as the day went on. So, because it works so well, I dealt with it. Although they come in many varieties (I had been using the Warm Vanilla) there was a distinct, underlying, odor that doesn't mingle well with the various scents (the Tangerine was awful but my husband wasn't put off so I gave it to him). The folks at Lume took notice of the complaints on the smell and they have totally improved it. I was almost out and ordered the new improved version in Powder Fresh and it is amazing. No more mystery odor mingling with it. It smells as it should, fresh and clean. Loving it. It may seem expensive, but it lasts so much longer than regular deodorants ever did, so you don't need to buy it every month. A little goes a long way. I use the stick, as does my husband, and each one has lasted several months, actually saving me money. Highly recommend.

At the price of nearly $18 for a stick of deodorant, not being able to find an unscented version on Amazon (I have since been able to find single sticks of unscented, and am not sure why I couldn’t find them when I made the mistake of ordering this), I thought at least that the smell would not be cloyingly overpowering, because that’s cheap perfume products, right? Wrong. This stuff is so strong smelling (in a horrible, perfumey way), I can’t imagine what my body might smell like underneath it. How will I know if it works? I prefer my natural body odor to this overwhelmingly strong perfume that makes me literally gag. I hope I can sleep tonight, and am wondering if I should chalk it up to horrible experience and wash it of. I’ve already had it on my body a couple of hours and I can’t smell anything else! It’s starting to nauseate me. I even made a pot of chai tonight, and I can barely smell THAT with this ever-present, cheap perfume smell, that resists nasal fatigue. I’ve already trying dabbing straight essential oil blends that I like on my nose itself, and I have nasal fatigue to THOSE and can only smell this horrible, horrible strong perfume. My God, who would want to smell like this?! I should have known better and just left well enough alone since I couldn’t find a single stick of unscented to try. My husband suggested spraying my homemade bug spray (5 essential oils in water) under my arms to try to mask it, as well as a Thieves Oil spray—because peppermint, citronella and clove would overpower this cucumber perfume, right? Wrong. I can’t smell them at all now, just this sickening cloying perfume! At this point, I really don’t even care if it works, because I would rather smell my own body odor than smell like a cheap slut drenched in scent! After writing the above, I wet a washcloth, put soap on it, and tried to scrub it off. I can’t get rid of it! The washcloth smells terrible now, and so do I. I just took a shower before putting this stuff on, or I would take another! I hope I can get rid of the smell swimming tomorrow. I thought about trying the unscented instead (now that I found it finally on Amazon), but this was such a bad experience, I don’t want to take the risk that the unscented might still smell terrible, too, because I shouldn’t have splurged so much money on a tube of deodorant that makes me hate the way I smell—a friend recommended this to me, and she’s about to get a piece of my mind. Maybe she’ll take this tube, since obviously I can’t return it.

Lume is an AMAZING deodorant product and I HIGHLY recommend it! However, this "fresh alpine" scent starts out great but after a couple days the scent just doesn't combine well with my arm pit essence 🤣 I don't know how else to describe it! I've tried a few of the other scents and also unscented and am over the moon happy with them. The tangerine, lavender and a couple others have worked wonderfully for me. Everybody's body pH, pheromones and chemistry is different. The scent of this Fresh Alpine Lume smells like pine tree. The problem I've found with every other natural type deo/anti is that they usually don't work longer than half a day and many, the ones with baking soda or similar ingredients irritate my pits. Lume doesn't irritate me in any way! So grateful for that! 🤩 The cost is more than most other deodorant/antiperspirant but one stick really does lasts at least a month with everyday, heavy use. I LOVE how safe this deodorant is, especially compared to most other's ingredients. In my opinion this is the safest, most effective "natural" type deo a person can find. The way it works is pretty amazing. When switching from typical, pharmacy or grocery store deodorant it seemed as if my body almost went through a "scent detoxing stage" where it took about a week for the Lume to really start working to it's fullest effect and for the old deodorant/antiperspirant to go away. If you're concerned with the chemicals in the deodorant/antiperspirant you're using now, I can't recommend giving Lume a try enough!!! My young adult children and parents have all switched to it & are very happy with it! Bottom line, Lume is wonderful, but not this pine scent for me ☺️

I love the Lume product line. The deodorant works great for me. It’s a little pricey but for me, there’s no skin discoloration, no stains on my shirts. It does what the ads say it does.

Très efficace mais le parfum est trop fort et le tube n’est pas facile à utiliser à la longue car il faut régulièrement enlever les traces et dépôts qui se forment à la surface.

Werk super goed echt een aanrader in begin vond ik de geur wel raar maar na 2 keer gebruiken eigenlijk heel goed

Carissima ma validissima

Expensive, but works for me. Smells nice.

After trying many products, mind you i stay away from anything that has aluminum as ingredient, but all relatively safe natural products i tried, all did work but only for an hour or so. This deodarant really keeps me smelling fresh all day long. I used to reek of smelly armpits, like seriously bad. This smell is pleasant, not overpowering, just perfect, very happy and will buy again, A+++
