Aluminum-Free Deodorant for Men by Bravo Sierra, 2-Pack-Contains Natural Ingredients–Long Lasting All-Day Odor and Sweat Protection-White Vetiver & Cedarwood, 3.2 oz-Paraben-Free, Vegan & Cruelty-Free

Truly my favorite deodorant - I have tried nearly all the natural ones. Scent is distinct but not artificial and not overpowering. No staining on clothes, which is great. Zero irritation for me - something I can't say for so many of the other natural deodorants which tended to give me a rash a few weeks in. About the best and longest lasting natural product I've used - although by the end of the day if you're working hard, you will still smell a little less pleasant than you might like. Overall tho - love the product and the company.

If you’re tired of men’s deodorants that smell great for 15 minutes and then tap out by lunchtime, Bravo Sierra is a very pleasant surprise. What stands out most is the balance: it feels gentle on the skin but still performs like a “serious” deodorant. I don’t get the usual redness or itching that some “strong” formulas cause, and there’s no gritty, sticky residue that clings to your shirt. The scent smells like a cologne—clean and fresh up close, not a cloud of cologne that announces you before you enter a room. Performance is amazing. As someone who works out daily, this product lasts all day and can even notice it working after sauna sessions. No chalky white streaks on dark clothes, no yellow stains on light ones, and no weird chemical smell when it starts to fade. If you want a dependable, daily-use deodorant that respects your skin, your clothes, and the people standing next to you, Bravo Sierra is the stick for you!

The tonka bean and lemon scent smells good. It applies easily (no burning and not abrasive) and it doesn't leave marks on your shirt so you can apply it BEFORE putting on your shirt if you like. It lasts as long as long as most deodorants but not as long as anti-perspirant + deodorant. However, the idea is to get away from aluminum. I have to wear body armor 10 hours/day, so finding a strong deodorant that holds up is a challenge. UPDATE: I ordered multiple Bravo Sierra sticks and body sprays to test and compare. The Tonka Bean and Lemon is by far the best stick scent and body spray scent. They work pretty well but on really sweaty days, it may be necessary to reapply the deodorant. I ordered deodorant sticks in Citrus and Cedarwood, White Vetiver and Cedarwood, and Sandalwood and Fig. I had the highest hopes for Sandalwood & Fig which made it all the more disappointing that it doesn't smell good. If the stock doesn't smell good, I don't feel the need to try the body spray. Citrus & Cedarwood and White Vetiver & Cedarwood sticks smell okay, but not great. They're nothing compared to Tonka Bean & Lemon. The body spray for White Vetiver & Cedarwood is revolting. Its scent is strong but it's absolutely nauseating. I think it would probably be an effective mosquito repellent because even mosquitos would say "that stinks too much" to want to bite you. The mosquito repellent brand "OFF!" has a more pleasing smell than Bravo Sierra's White Vetiver & Cedarwood body spray. I wish I were joking. The Citrus & Cedarwood body spray isn't as overwhelming and gross as the White Vetiver & Cedarwood body spray, but it's not good. When I sprayed it in my body and asked my girlfriend to smell it, she shook her head no. She agreed it wasn't as awful as White Vetiver & Cedarwood but still not pleasing. Alas, the only Bravo Sierra sticks and body spray I would recommend is the Tonka Bean and Lemon. I downgrade them to 4* because there is no 4.5 star option, and it doesn't always last the full day. As for the longest-lasting odor protection of all the magnesium deodorant brands, I give that award to Crystal's Charcoal & Tea Tree. It will last 10 hours+ of wearing body armor even in hot summer days without requiring reapplication.

I have been on a long search for several years now to find a natural deodorant that actually works for me. Let me say that everybody’s body chemistry is different so what works for one person might not work for another but I have a big problem with sweaty armpits. I do not sweat very much in general unless I am working out except for my pits for some reason I used to have to use clinical deodorant and it was the only thing that worked, however clinical deodorant has icky chemicals and I am trying to rid myself of chemicals andy be a healthier person. Anytime I see a different kind of natural deodorant I buy it and most of them did not work at all a few of them worked a little but had to reapply often I have only had success with two kinds but there was some drawbacks to the other kind that worked for me. The bravo Sierra brand goes on smoothly not gritty at all almost every other kind of natural deodorant I have tried has been gritty except one but that one did not work well. It does not bother sensitive skin unless I just got done shaving then it is a little bit burnie for a moment or two then goes away. I think this is normal for any kind of deodorant though so it does not lose any stars for that. It actually works meaning I do not stink even after a workout in humid weather. Natural deodorant do not stop a person from sweating however this one helps with absorption of that sweat so I do not feel sweaty when I wear this deodorant. It goes on clear. It smells good, though I want to try a different scent as this one is a bit masculine in my opinion. When I first put it on the smell is a bit strong but it mellows out after a little while however if I raise my arms up I can still smell it so I figure it is working the way it is supposed to without being overpowering. My husband also likes this deodorant and the smell of the lemon and tonka bean be however he prefers the spray from this brand in the cedar citrus scent. I think this is my favorite deodorant as far as performance gos but just for reference the other natural deodorant that worked for me was Schmitz, my husband actually likes that one better however I had to re-apply that partway through the day and I do not with the bravo Sierra brand it lasts all day even through a work out. He however says he can apply the Schmitz and it lasts two days for him so like I said everybody’s body chemistry is different. I think the Schmitz is grittier then the bravo Sierra so I like the bravo Sierra texture better. However I do like the Schmitz sent options better, their Jasmine T specifically is my favorite but I like a lot of their sents. There is something in the bravo Ciara that reminds me a little of soap but it is not very strong just faintly noticeable. All in all I will have to try other sents in this brand however it is my new go to I just wish they had a few more feminine sent options.

I have bought this deodorant multiple times and it does have its pros: Aluminum free, great for my very sensitive skin (even right after shaving!), pleasant smells, goes on clear so you can easily avoid marks on clothes, lasts me personally about half the day before I start to notice a slight smell, and lasts for months before it’s used up. However, it LEAKS so badly! It collects liquid in the bottom piece that turns. Anytime it’s tilted to the side, which is anytime I apply, it starts dripping all over. This is my third stick and despite all the positives I think it’ll be my last because the dripping is so annoying. Attached photo of it dripping and I just emptied out all the built up liquid a few days ago. Impossible to take it on trips. The Sandalwood & Fig and Tonka Bean & Lemon are both masculine and earthy but still natural enough that I still feminine in the scent. I definitely do not use this before hitting the gym, it’s not strong enough. Great value as an everyday natural deodorant aside from the unfortunate dripping.

LONG STORY SHORT: I love this brand, and I love this scent. But more importantly, my WIFE loves this scent. Sometimes she unknowingly gets a whiff of my freshly Deodorized Armpit, and she's all "ooooo you smell so GOOD! what are you wearing?" and I'm like "Deodorant baby. Deodorant." and Passion takes the wheel from there. How does it work you might ask? No clue. Pheromones probably, but I can't confirm that. What even IS a Tonka bean? no one knows. but it's provocative. It gets the people going. Either way, It's a win in my book. *Possibly related, we're expecting our first child in December.* THE TRUTH IS (PROS): -I've really liked this brand for a while. They have great products, with a limited number of ingredients, and they all smell great. I've tried most (if not all) of the scents, but this one is my favorite. But that's like, a personal thing, so you do you. -Made with probiotics to kill body odor-causing bacteria at the source -Aluminum Free and Baking Soda Free -Does not stain clothes -Named Best Deodorant by Esquire Magazine -Scent Profile: Warm & Full-Bodied, with notes of Lemon, Cinnamon, Vanilla and Tonka Bean -They give back a portion of Sales to the well-being of Military Families and Veterans. CONS: -Used to be HALF the price. Man. Those were the days. You could get a 2 pack for like $12-14 if they were running a sale. Now it's about $13.50 per unit. I think they realized what they had...and now they're charging accordingly. -SOMETIMES....it burns my pits. It's super weird. I use it every day, it works, and once every several months or so, I have a day where I put it on, and I experience underarm redness. I don't understand it. But 98.2% of the time...not a problem. Just thought you'd like to know.

BLUF: I'm a real bad sweater. I just look outside and I'm perspiring like I just finished hours of yard work on a hot Summer day. My deodorant is very important to me. I have been an avid user of Bravo Sierra for years. I swapped from Old Spice, which made me sweat profusely. Just straight fire hydrant out of my armpits. My shirts were basically towels at that point. Bravo Sierra changed it all for me. No burning sensation, highly effective, doesn't stain my shirts, smells great (not too pungent or anything), and lasts a long time. Also made with better ingredients as far as I can tell. I shouldn't say this, but my wife even uses it from time to time due to it's effectiveness. Has a lighter smell that works regardless of the seasons. Not too rich for the hotter part of the year, but not too light during winter months when you might want something a bit warmer & intense. I'm a simple man, prefer to eliminate as many choices as possible. This deodorant does the trick in this department. I use this, as well as the vetiver scent. I alternate depending on how I am feeling. A little more on the wild side? Grab some Vetiver scented deodorant. Feeling like sticking with ole faithful - citrus & cedarwood.

Scent is super personal + reacts differently w body chemistry for each individual, so you might like this scent. Overall, I liked that the scent wasn't overpowering (like the Dr. Squatch brand ewww gross). It left a subtle scent that lasted a long time. I used rubbing alcohol on a paper towel to try to remove the scent, but some still lingered on my skin. So as a deoderant I give it 5/5 stars. I bought all 5 scents to compare. For me, the majority of the Bravo Sierra deoderants smell slight like soap to me, other than the Citrus/Cedar and the Fig/Sandalwood. The Grapefruit was too sharp. I hated this scent the most. 2/5 stars based on scent alone The Tonka Bean has a subtle soapy scent. 3/5 stars based on scent alone. The White Vetiver is a mix (for me) of the Grapefruit's sharpness and Tonka Bean's soapy scent. 2.5/5 stars based on only the scent. Fig/Sandalwood smells herbaceous but not like a Christmas tree piney (which I like). Kind of a woodsy scent; like a tree with a baby powder finish. No soapy scent at all! Scent-wise I'd give it a 4/5 stars, but I wish it smelled more like a Christmas tree instead of just a tree, but glad I don't smell like a bar of soap Citrus/Sandalwood smells the most masculine to me. Has a minuscule soapy scent for me that fades as it mixed w my body chemistry. As a female, it reminds me of a guy so I don't hate it lol. Smells like an ex's cologne (Jo Malone). I like that the BS deodorants aren't overpowering yet still have a long- lasting fragrance. Scent-wise, I give it 4.5/5 stars Compared to other men's deoderants, I'd say Bravo Sierra's offers the most diverse scents that "aren't in-your-face" overpowering/"I'm a teenage boy who takes cologne showers" lol. While subtly-fragranced, they are long-lasting. As a deoderant I'd say they're great. As an anti-perspirant, I'm still on the fence. These deoderants weren't drying on me nor caused an allergic reaction, which the Native brand does for me. It also goes on smoothly compared to all the other aluminum-free deodorants I've tried. However, it may be *too* moisturizing bc it feels kind of oily to me. Because of that, I'm not sure it actually helps with sweat or if that was just residue on my skin. I bought this primarily as an anti-perspirant (yes, I know only aluminum is FDA-approved as an anti-perspirant, but my main issue is sweating not odor). I wear this under my pits and between my boobs for sweat. Interestingly enough, when I was wearing a long-sleeve shirt and I was sweating, my underarms stayed dry, but I still had boob sweat. I wonder if a thin layer of clothing is needed to soak the excess moisturize/oiliness? Bc I noticed once I blotted it my boobs stayed dry. And yes, it was actual sweat bc the rest of my torso was sweating (gym). Going to see if this improves over time (read Real Purity actually works as an anti-perspirant but it needs a few days to kick in), but as an anti-perspirant I'd rate it 3.7/5 stars. To be fair, the only aluminum-free deoderants I've used are Native, Dr. Squatch, and Bravo Sierra. Of those 3, BS works the best as an anti-perspirant. I like that these are army-tested and the company gives back to the military The major con (other than scent) is that it does rub off onto clothes! At first I didn't notice the white transfer marks bc I think it was still "drying" when I put on my top. Some time later I realized I had those annoying white deoderant marks on my shirt even though I tried keeping my shirt as far from my pits as possible. So you might think it doesn't leave any transfer marks on dark clothing, but wait and you'll see it :( I've only worn this with darker-colored shirts and tank tops so I haven't noticed staining, unlike Native and Dr. Squatch (grey due to charcoal!!) Pros: - glides smoothly - doesnt dry skin; moisturizing - subtle (not overpowering), long-lasting scent - gives back to military Cons: - still shows white deoderant spots onto tops - most of these smell soapy to me (like Irish Spring) Undecided: - not sure if it works as an anti-perspirant; seemed "wet," but could've just been the texture of residue on skin
