  My DH uses that crystal rock thing and has for years. It works great for him. I tried it (for a whole year) and I was sweaty and smelled the entire time.

  FI has been using Gudonya in the Mayan Gold for a bit and it worked well, but he never remembers to have me order more until he's literally throwing the thing away and needs new tomorrow.  He started using Burt's Bees a couple of weeks ago b/c he can pick it up at Whole Foods, and so far so good.  It smells good, even by the end of the day.  Not sure about the sweat factor, though.

  I didn't comment on the other deodorant post but I'll write here...
  
  DH was using the Arm & Hammer one, and he seems to like that - when he runs out of what we're using now, he might switch back.

  However, both of us have been using DeoDry from The Body Shop for a couple months now, and personally I love it. The girls at the shop said guys use it, so I picked up one for him when I was getting one for myself.

  I will say for myself, even with the crazy hot summer we've had, it's definitely worked well. Occasionally if I'm going back out later in the day I'll reapply, but generally I put it on in the morning and that's it.

  As for DH, he went through his bottle of DeoDry really quickly. I don't know if he needed to apply more, or if he was just doing it because of some imagined increase in odor (I think he had a scarring experience when he was a teenager and worries about BO, when he doesn't actually smell bad at all). But it did work for him, however much it took.

  You might want to scratch my previous advice about Burt's Bees.  FI and I went to try on his wedding clothes at lunch, and he came out of the dressing room complaining that he doesn't think his deo is working very well.  Oh well, it was worth a shot...

   Deo dry nor the men's deodorant from the Body Shop worked for us
