I think people smell other people stronger than they smell themselves.

Someone else noticed it too so it isn’t just me.

I also wear odourless roll ons so it’s not me.

I find the unscented or ‘sensitive’ antiperspirants aren’t as effective which is unfortunate. Really hate that they changed the Mitchum roll on.

I currently use it anyway because the other unscented options aren’t good and it’s better than accidental perfume cloud

I went with the Nivea women's sensitive roll on, It seems to be working so far the last 2 months I've been using it but it'll probably get a workout during summer.

I do find that it doesn't irritate me though which is good.

I don’t seem to get much mileage out of women’s stuff. I go for men’s roll ons and either unscented or something that doesn’t really carry

Oh ok, I used to use the Dove anti irritant one but I didn't like the smell because is smelled like smoke, didnt like it and it was strong.

Same deal here. Friend recommended the Mitchum one but then they changed it.

[–] melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 points 10 months ago

I think they changed it in 2014, still mad about it
