Any of you guys use Old Spice deodorant/AP?
If you like it and use it, I'd like to know.
If you've tried it but didn't like it, I would like to know.
Thanks in advance!

I used to use it when I was a teen. I kind of wish this(B&B) was around back then, as I loved old spice. I would have gotten into DE shaving then, I'm sure. Back to the deoderant, I loved it, but I'm sure that they've changed it since I used it. I couldn't use it often because I developed a slight reaction to it. Nothing serious, just itching, but it was irritating so I stopped, but I loved the scent.

I've used their whole line of high enduance deoderants and used them for a while until i grew immune to them so I had to switch it up. They have been of my favorites thus far. i did get a little bit of a rash from time to time, but it would usually go away in a day or so. i'm using degree right now. Do you guys have that problem? I find I have to switch up deoderants ever so often to stay ontop of BO. i wouldnt say my BO is especially potent either.

I use the High Endurance deodorant.
When I was a teen it would cause me a lot of redness and uncomfortability, but now it doesn't.
Though I use it only because it is habit, and one of the few clear sticks (not gels, sprays, or flaky white chalk) that I can find.

I too suffered from red, chapped, itchy pits when I used it. I've never tried it again. I use Mitchum's gel now and have for years and years w/o any problems.

The High endurance Anti-Perspirant in Original Scent is all I will use. Not only does it go on clear, it actually works for me. I come from a long line of very very sweaty men. The sweats when it's 70 degrees kind of sweaty. This is the ONLY product that keeps me dry and less-than-stinky.:thumbup1:

Used to use it but the scent was too much, I now use mitchum unsented. It works alot better IMHO.:cool:

I use it. It is the only kind of deodorant that keeps me from stinking. I have tried every other brand I could find, but none of them worked. Every once in a while, I will get an itch from it, but its bearable, and it goes away in an hour or so.

I use the Red Zone on an occasion. Works fine for me, but leaves a little residue.

I used it for the longest time. It performed really well, and although I didn't have any irritations from it or anything, it would dry the living hell out of my skin. Like I would take off my shirt and flakes of skin layers would fall out from under my arms. I just recently switched to the Crystal alum deodorant stone, and it's worked fantastically.

I've always used the deodorant but I'm searching for a replacement. For people with darker skin, it can make your skin blotchy and discolored. I know this because it happened to me. :mad:

I have used the Old Spice High Endurance a/p for a few years and really like it.

I use the pure sport high endurance deoderant exclusively, it's the only stuff that works for me.

IMHO all "anti-perspirants" are counter productive. In my experience, AP's only make your sweat glands work harder to produce sweat. About a year ago I started using deodorant exclusively and since then I've had a tremendous reduction in sweat problems.
FOR ME none of the deodorants you can buy at wal-mart or other superstores do me any good. I've tried pretty much every deodorant and they all make my pits itchy and irritated.
If you're inquiring about Old Spice because of it's scent that's one thing, but if you're open to other deodorants I'd be happy to recommend you some really good stuff.

It's scent is simply CLEAN. It smells refreshing and clean, that's it! It's not over powering but you can definitely smell it if you stick your nose down there. It lasts plenty long enough, doesn't make me sweat, doesn't dry or irritate my skin.
I never found other scented deodorants to really have an affective scent. It smells good when you put it on but after about 5 minutes it doesn't really matter.
This is good stuff, I highly recommend it.

I have used Old Spice AP/Deoderant for decades without problems. Don't recall when High Endurance came out but have used it since it did.

I like the Old Spice High endurance deodorant it is my primary one 99% of the time, I been using it for a few years now it is ok, nothing special it smells ok and so do I when I wear it, doesn't cause any rashes either which is a problem I had with quite a few other deodorants and anti perspirants.
I also think that anti perspirants can't be a good thing, I have avoided them for years now and haven't had any need to use them which I guess goes against what I used to believe and I think what they (the manufacturers) want us to believe by some of there ads.

Also try Kiss My Face roll on. I love it. I bought it because of the Patchouli scent and it works GREAT. Just my $0.02. :biggrin:

In response to the previous posts talking about rashes/redness from Old Spice stuff:
Yes, I've had that problem too and have talked to many who have as well. I'm not sure what in that particular brand causes it, but MAN does it burn and itch.
I've been using Mitchum Smart Solid for about a year now and I really like it. I know antiperspirants aren't the greatest things in the world for you, but without them I would sweat through three shirts per day. I tried switching to deodorants only about three years back, by request of my doctor, and tried it for about three months. No luck. Doctor says I've got overactive sweat glands, which runs in my family. Oh well, love me some Mitchums!

I like the Old Spice High Endurance. I tried some more expensive brands but Old Spice works well and costs less.

I use the Old Spice High Endurance Deodorant. For an antiperspirant, which I apply at night, I use Mitchums. I probably use OS because it was the A/S that my father wore in the 50's and 60's.

I have used High Endurance OS for years...the Deodorant type. For the last couple of years, I will occasionally seem to have a large allergic reaction to it...so I've changed scents, not Deodorants. I just had another reaction, so I've ordered your recommendation. I'll report back.

I use the Classic deodorant stick (original scent) "Original Round Stick Formula", High Endurance deodorant stick (original scent), and Red Zone deodorant & anti-perspirant on special occasions. I have no problems with itching/burning, and I don't have odor problems. I would venture a guess that most irritation is caused by over-application. I used to get irritation every so often, then one day I searched around for deodorant application information. Turns out, most manufacturers recommend one "swipe" (a swipe being once up and once down). I had been doing at least 3 swipes, sometimes more. I've been using one swipe for a while now, and I never have odor or irritation issues. Good luck!

I use it and it works perfectly fine for me. When I buy I usually go for the Mitchum unscented stuff, but SWMBO likes the Old Spice line of scents, so she bought that for me the last time I ran out. I don't care for the scent as much (not the original scent, which I love, but one of the other nondescript names and scents), but I don't dislike it enough to not use it. I haven't had any problems with irritation.
