What They Say: "Using organic extracts of Sage, Lemon, Patchouli, and Tea Tree Oils with organic grain alcohol, Erbaviva has created a sweet smelling product that counteracts the growth of bacteria and doesn't clog pores."

Melissa's DeLush Downlow: I know some of you have got to be into organic products. And really, when they work, who wouldn't? This one is tricky, and let me tell you why. I actually found this to work well for me. Granted, it's a deodorant, not an anti-perspirant, but if you don't sweat excessively that shouldn't really be a problem. As a deodorant, it is effective. But here's the thing: the scent (I wouldn't necessarily call it SWEET). It's very woody and patchouli-laden. Now, personally I am a HUGE fan of patchouli. But see, my husband isn't. Every time I have this on I say, "Don't I smell good?" and he says, "um, you smell like spicy wood". He just doesn't get it. But still, that is something to keep in mind when you consider if this spray-deoderant is for you.

If you do get it, use ONE TINY SPRAY for each underarm. Seriously, it's like you just can't do a smaller squirt to get the effect you need. It comes out stronger at first than it actually wears as it warms to your skin. I think then it really mellows out, and I almost feel like I put on a dab of patchouli fragrance oil somewhere. (If that doesn't appeal to you, don't get this.) I'm giving this a high rating because it does what it claims, but your experience with it will be determined by your personal taste.

One more thing. Don't spray it on just after you've shaved. Just don't. Holy Ouch.
