    Ok,
    here's the question....how many of you guys wear deordorant?
    if you dont, could you list your reason's why?
    I have been coming across a lot of guys who dont and it is quite offensive as far as I am concerned.
    I have postd one for the ladies so you can see what we think about it as well....
    please if you think you have a good reason for not wearing it,
    tell us! We may have a reply that will change your minds!

    well, I wear it. but I Don't think everyone should :P

    i only wear it cos I sweat a whore of a lot, and it would prob piss the people around me in college to have to smell eau-de-mord all day long

    :)

    Depends really on the person if they sweat a lot etc. Generally I think everyone should wear DO to protect from BO

    The problem isnt not wearing deodrant its not washing.
    Sweat only smells when its gone stale, If you wash everyday it wont ever get stale.

    I wear aftershave..not all the time tho cos tisn't needed.

    I dont tend to sweat loads so deodorant isn't needed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,967 ✭✭✭Dun


    It does all depend on personal hygiene. I would wear some deodorant every day, but it's a matter of just-in-case, because I have been told I don't need it.

    I'd also use anti-perspirant in the summer in addition to deodorant, or rather when it's warm (you know or summers :rolleyes:), cause I would tend to sweat a bit.

    I put on deoderant but not bucket loads. Imo someone who piles on the deoderant can have just as an offensive smell as sweat.

    If you don't smell don't wear it, but thats a risky buisness as you could get stuck in a hot room and can't help yourself :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭Makaveli


    Yeah, everyday. It's not that I smell bad or anything it's a just in case. Plus I'm just used to using it all the time now. I dont put on loads though, because that's just as bad as stinking.
    I use deoderant not anti-perspirant because I dont sweat all that much. tbh I just really like the smell of Lynx Africa and Atlantis.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,155 ✭✭✭ykt0di9url7bc3


    just a touch of deoderant every morning and before & after work


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 848 ✭✭✭mirv


    My sexy asian body doesn't sweat much even after lengthly exercises and nor does it have BO, so I tend not to need it in the slightest. It also sorta stings my skin if I do wear it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,859 ✭✭✭logic1


    I always wear deodorant and an odourless anti bacterial spray.

    I never use anti-persperants due to the fact they block the pours and cause the toxins to be reabsorbed by the body cuasing un-needed stress on other organs to excrete them.

    .logic.

    Yup i go for the two deodrant sprays underarms and then a chilling spray down the back.
    There is nothing worse than somebody who smells of bo. If i do come in contact with somebody who does even hint of bo i tend to do a runner asap.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,997 ✭✭✭The_Bullman


    I wear it when i am going to meet people, like college, going out drinking, whatever.


    I don't when going to work. Absoloutly pointless for me to put it on there. I get way too sweaty there and nobody give a rats ass there.

    Don't smell, don't wear it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,120 ✭✭✭PH01


    Atari Jaguar sounds like a nice deodorant. Where can one buy the stuff?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,372 ✭✭✭Kone


    oh u gotta wear it!

    This is the one I use

    Most pharmacies should have it.

    Discovered something known as "washing" and found I smell rather pleasant. Those monthly (fortnightly, if I'm feeling adventurous, and the plumbing can take the strain) showers really worked wonders for me, far better than the bi-annual ones, I'd have to recommend it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,476 ✭✭✭Samba


    Well, I work from home so I dont tend to use it unless I know i'll be going out that night/day.

    My problem is finding a dedorant which is actually half bearable, most of em smell terrbile(ive never discovered nice lynx deo).

    Physio Sport is alright so i usually go with that, majority of them are just disgusting and as bad as BO imo.

    Addidas also have a new one out which i was impressed with, cant think of the name right now.

    Issey Miyake Eau pour homme is what i prefer in sprays, beats any deo

    Deodorant everyday and a little splash of the oul aftershave... something mild like Hugo.. rather pleasant...

    I have to as I deal with end users all day, pity some of them dont take the hint... hmmmm... :rolleyes:
