I've finished with Mitchum deodorant

[Queenioqueenio]

I've bought this for years as I thought it was more effective, last year it seems to have been reformulated and now it doesn't work! 30 mins after showering and using it, it smells rank, not sweaty just rank, bought some 59p stuff in desperation from Aldi yesterday, and it's worked fine. Anyone else noticed this?

Yes! i used to think it was the most effective but the last time i bought it it was terrible! Now i just pick up whatever is cheapest and it works much better!

Mitchum not great for me either. Thought I was strange as everyone raves about it. Any suggestions for a sweaty person?

I forgot to use it on Sunday and still smelled better by the end of the day using Nothing !

Yes! And have also had the same with Sanex more recently - it just stopped working on me. I've now gone back to unperfumed RightGuard.

Yeah I stopped using it a while ago for the same reason. Disappointing!

dd sweats profusely but no longer uses Mitchum, which was wonderful for years. She's told me not to bother anymore, says it no longer does the job. She's using Sure solid mens at the moment.

Oh no! I've just stockpiled for myself and DH......

Have always used it. The roll-on is now rubbish but I find the stick ok.

I used to use Mitchum but have stopped cos it now seems a bit useless and smelly - am currently on a crystal thingy that you put water on (or use directly after shower like what I does! I like it very much but am not particularly sweaty anyway.

I use the dove Green tea and cucumber one, it's lovely smells fresh all day, can't say it particularly keeps me completely dry, but definitely smells lovely and lasts, also the sure invisible one is good.

The stick Mitchum still works fine for me

I found that it stopped working for me a little while ago. Currently using Triple Dry which I'm finding to be very effective.

I find the crystal deodorant works well for me too. I sweat a lot and normal anti perspirant doesn't keep me that dry or fresh, the crystal one (rubbed on straight after a shower) keeps me completely odour free, but it doesn't actually stop you sweating.

Mitchum is weird. I find that every so often it stops working and I have to take a few months break from it. Then it works well when I go back to it. Googling turns up lots of users who have found the same thing happening.

Avon On Duty used to be amazing but now it takes forever to dry and doesn't even work after all that.

I'll try that men's Sure solid one, thanks Dawndonna.

It's vile since re formulating,utter rubbish.

I use Right guard total defence stick now which is great.

Oh - I've had a few days recently where I've definitely had stinky pits and been wondering whether I'd remembered to apply my roll on Mitchum - which I have used for years with no problems.

It still works for me, but it also burns my skin after a few weeks of use and my armpits become red, rough and sore. It's annoying.

Mitchum is rubbish, try the sure maximum protection deodorant, far,far better imho.

Pitrok.

I've noticed I was a bit stinky a couple of times recently and thought I'd forgotten to put on the Mitchum...must change to something else instead.

They must've reformulated it a couple of years ago. I find it makes me smell sweaty these days. I'm wearing the the Nivea no white marks stuff at the moment. It seems to be working

I did a product test for the Sure Maximum Protection roll-on and thought it was really good. Bought the men's one for DH and he thought it was brilliant too. £5 though.

I stopped using it about 5 years ago and switched to Dove because it just stopped working.

I thought it was just me it didn't work on! I have stopped buying the solid stick because the last cm or so is unusable due to the twist up stick and I am fed up of wasting so much. I use Dove or Sure solid roll on and they seem ok.

This is so interesting as I use the Mitchum stick (powder fresh ) and recently I've smelt alittle musty after a few hours.
