Our best-selling solid deodorant for natural pits

If you’re used to using a roll-on deodorant and want to make the leap to a natural alternative, Aromaco is an easy transition. We thought about all of the most effective ingredients for a deodorant and packed them all into this rather magnificent bar. We’ve put in astringent witch hazel, added in absorbent sodium bicarbonate (otherwise known as baking soda), to absorb excess moisture and smells, and fragrant patchouli oil into our creamy cake to keep you fresh, naturally. You’re left with softened, dry and tremendously pleasant smelling pits.

Features

  • The pits, in a good way: A simple but effective solution for armpit control.
  • Feeling fresh: Witch hazel infusion helps to eliminate microbes and odor-causing bacteria leaving you fresh and clean.
  • Triple threat: Chamomile vinegar tightens the pores, acts as an antibacterial agent, and soothes the skin.

"Like others, I have tried many different natural deodorants and haven't had much luck. I actually found one that worked great, but I could not stand the smell....even hours after putting it on I could still smell it on myself and it made me feel sick. I wasn't expecting much ...more"

This deodorant is AMAZEBALLS! I swear, nothing has ever worked for me. My pits suck. they are impossible to tame...until now! I sweat like crazy even when it's cold outside. I have ruined shirts. I would start to smell about halfway through the day. Now that I have used this deodorant I have those problems no longer! This stuff smells so sexy and it lasts all day long. The best part is that it is all natural and free of aluminum. I will never ever use another deodorant ever! Now stop reading reviews and buy this deodorant :)

[First natural deodorant][...] I was so excited because I had ordered around $100 of products. Well I have a problem with sweat. I sweat a lot and I get bad sweat stains sometimes. Well I opened the package and immediately looked for the deodorant. Well I was just about to put it on and then I smelt it. The smell was HORRIFIC. I am not all into vegan and organic soaps and stuff but I tried this. The smell was like spoiled milk and rotten moldy eggs. It was just an awful smell. I haven't gotten up the guts to wear it out yet just because of the smell. Well I am wearing a tiny bit I mean the tiniest bit. I put it on last night (I'm not sure what time) and usually in the morning I have some b.o but now I don't. The smell is very strong and very loud, so it might be just covering up the B.O..It seems like a good product, but If I could just get over the smell! I don't know how to review this product fairly because I have not worn it exercising and out like a normal day but only because of the smell. So if you want to try this product, go for it, but if you can't stand loud smells then I would't recommend ordering this. I have it on right now and it kind of smells a little better than it does just smelling it right out of the box. I read several reviews before ordering this and they all were very positive. They all said that it has a great smell. Well, smelling it once you open it right out of the box I guess doesn't give it much credit. Well now that I have it on and am typing this review I keeping smelling my armpits trying to see if the smell is all that bad. It kind of smells okay once it is on (like I said). But I will have to maybe give it a fighting chance. I looked up a few reviews and all of there thoughts are basically the same as mine. So maybe look at reviews for the product and maybe try and smell it first.

    Comments about Aromaco Deodorant:

    Like others, I have tried many different natural deodorants and haven't had much luck. I actually found one that worked great, but I could not stand the smell....even hours after putting it on I could still smell it on myself and it made me feel sick. I wasn't expecting much with this since I had tried so many with no luck. I wore it to work yesterday because I ran out of my regular deodorant and I was really nervous. I work in a hospital and I am mostly running around assisting patients, collecting labs, etc. So I sweat a lot. I worked an 8 hour shift and when I got home my underarms were dry and had no odor! I am so happy with this product! Some people might be turned off by the smell, but I couldn't smell it on myself throughout the day and no one said anything to me (I work in very close proximity with my patients and coworkers).

        This deodorant smells SO good! Today is my first day wearing it so I don't know yet how well it works. I'll wear it simply for the smell though!

        I don't love how "wet" it feels but I put my Lush body powder stuff over it and it dried it nicely.

          Comments about Aromaco Deodorant:

          I use this as my daily deodorant, combined with a sprinkle of coconut powder on top, and I love it. The powder seems to absorb most of my perspiration, and the combined scent of the two products endures subtly all day long. I also road bike, run and hike and these work great. I've tried a lot of other "natural" deodorants, and this works the best, by far. It is a little messier to apply than conventional deodorants, but the little bit of extra time is well worth it. I will buy this again.

            I am really liking this deoderant so far. I have been wanting to make the switch to a natural deoderant for about a year now and finally decided to try this. I personally think that the bar itself smells HORRIBLE... I actually hold my breath when I apply it because I can't stand the scent! However, once it is on my body I can't smell it at all, and it is 100% effective at odor control and is not messy in the slightest. While BO has never really been a problem for me, I still like to apply deoderant every day just in case my body decided to rebel and be stinky once in a while. I keep it in a plastic baggie to keep it from drying out (which it will if you don't).I hope this continues to work as wel as it has been for me, I would definitely buy it again!

              I bought this not expecting too much out of it but I love it. It works well (you may have to apply again after a heavy workout--but that's the same with reg. antiperspirant too). I used for a month and then it broke me out a little (not sure if it was from this or the deodorant powder I put on after) but that went away. It smells great and doen't leave marks on black shirts which is awesome. It stings a tiny bit after shaving. I will buy this over and over.

              Comments about Aromaco Deodorant:

              Originally I loved this product. I thought that the scent was a tad bit over-powering, but when using the Aromaco in combination with the Coconut, it created a more subdued and lightly sweet earthy scent, which I got used to. I had used this product for about a week before one hot day - the day that changed it all.

              For normal use at the office/desk all day, this is not a bad product. However, after I stepped outside in rather warm weather with a blazer I began to sweat. The sweat, mixed in combination with the Aromaco, created a most unpleasant scent that made me smell like I hadn't showered in days. And normally I do not produce that kind of odor! When I went to class that evening I had to facilitate a discussion. I made sure to keep my distance! I promptly returned the Aromaco.

              The T'eo was a lifesaver though. The scent of T'eo does not last as long, but does not produce that God-awful earthy odor when perspiration strikes either!

                  I love this deodorant. I've been using aluminum free products for over a year now and I had the hardest time finding something that actually works. I live in Florida and around here it's pretty easy to break a sweat. Tom's deodorant was an epic fail. Left me smelling worse than if I hadn't put on anything at all. Finally I found Aromaco and I'm hooked! It lasts all day and smells great. I'll usually reapply if I'm going out at night. No complaints here! Great product.

                  I have always used deo on my bikini area after shaving it to make sure there are no razor bumps down there... but using non-natural products down there is scary (and what if your boyfriend ... notices?)

                  Anyhow, this product is mediocre on pits (i smell like b.o. with a tiny scent of patchouli)
                  it is WONDERFUL on the bikini area! just smooth over (break off a seperate piece to use just for this to be hygenic if you like) after a shave and go. awesome awesome no after-shave itchies.

                  However, it does make my armpits a bit itchy - but hey, no big deal

                  This is an update from a previous review, I've been using Aromaco for about a month and a half now and I just recently started breaking out in a horrible rash. It actually got to the point where it was painful to apply.

                  At first I thought it was coconut but when I stopped using it the rash and pain persisted. I eventually stopped using Aromaco while continuing to use Coconut and the pain immediately stopped and the rash slowly went away.

                  I still gave this product 4 stars because before the rash appeared it was a great natural deodorant that was very effective at keeping me smelling fresh. I have now switched to T'eo and so far so good =)

                    Comments about Aromaco Deodorant:

                    After using many "natural" deodorants, I had given up the search. I actually received a sample of Aromaco deodorant with an order of BIG (which is such an incredible shampoo) and American Cream conditioner (also fabulous). I am a long time sufferer of STRESS SWEAT. I used to spend an unbelievable amount of money on deodorant and I would still feel paranoid of smelling. I AM A FIRM BELIEVER IN AROMACO. As soon as I apply it, I feel secure and the smell is so wonderful. Patchouli is one of my favorite smells in the world. If I'm working outside or out on the town with friends, I don't have to worry. If I sweat, I get a burst of the smell of Aromaco and I keep on going. It's incredible. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!!!!

                      I don't "glow","perspire" or anything cute or even human for that mater. Oh, I'm also at that age where I have my own "private summers." I like to go out and dance, excercise and just have fun. I SWEAT, people. Pours like rain. I've tried virtually everything.Clinical-strength products, the crystal deodorant, and the one where you can skip a day. Puhleeez, when I was an adolescent, maybe.I was introduced to Lush some years ago, the Style section of my local newspaper. I went there and haven't looked back since. They've since discontinued some of the ones I first used. But, by golly this stuff works!! "Aromaco" is the ONLY deodorant I use for a night of partying. I did tell you I sweat, right? I do not smell, not even slightly. By the way, the best way I've found to apply this is to leave my armpits damp. It will rub on easily and slightly creamy.No need to use my fingers, unless I miss a spot, which rarely happens. Too much may cause stains, but I'm a bit of a pro with their deodorants by now. "The Guv'nor" I use during the day sometimes
                      Was concerned about the patchpuli scent, but it fades, doesn't clash w/other scents. And as long as I don't smell like I've been working on the railroad, I couldn't complain. I needed and got the results I had thought I'd never find! Thank you Lush. Now, Bring back the other deodorants you've since discontinued. Please. do. it. ASAP.
                      I've introduced Lush to lots of my girlfriends and frequently give their products as gifts. This is great, absolutely wonderful!!

                      I. Love. This. Stuff!!!! I'd been considering the swap to a natural deodorant for awhile, but was swayed by the articles that I kept running across about the link between aluminum and Alzheimer's and whatever it is in normal deodorant that causes breast cancer. Yikes! So, I bought a few sticks from a few different stores. The first time I wore one to the gym, I smelled so badly that I actually apologized to the other folks at the gym that crossed my path; I was offending myself with my B.O.!!!! My mom recommended this to me, and I ordered it the same day. Got it, swiped it on, and have never looked back! I'm not super crazy about the smell at first (a little too much patchouli for me), but it seems like it adjusts to your body chemistry or something throughout the day; I literally smell better by the end of the day than I do at the beginning! Haven't really noticed any pit stains either...I layer the Coconut powder over the top. My only complaint is that it is a little rough to rub on the day after I shave my armpits, but other than that I can't recommend it enough!!!!

Nothing has worked until now! And it's aluminum free! Even better!:) I will be a loyal user forever and ever!!!

                        Comments about Aromaco Deodorant:

                        So I have been searching for a deodorant that would actually not keep me from smelling more than sweating. I am a person that sweats, but I would prefer not to smell when I do. I was very leery of the patchouli (which I can't really stand, due to bad memories of dirty people). Anyway, I finally decided to give it a try and I was pleasantly surprised. The patchouli isn't overpowering and even though I still sweat it isn't as profuse as before and there is zero smell. The bar has lasted me FOREVER almost a year! But my only gripe is that I have to reapply about once a day when I get home from work, but that is a small price to pay for all of the other benefits.

                          If I could marry this deodorant, I just might do it. It is amazing. And it smells amazing. Simply glide the bar across your pits for amazing smelling underarms all day. I can STILL smell it on me. As soon as I put it on my boyfriend told me how good I smelled. Did I mention it smells amazing?
                          Note: If you are not a fan of the scent of patchouli, or even slightly grimace at it, then this is probably not the Lush deodorant for you. The scent is quite strong, and you'll be able to smell yourself all day.

                          This is 100% without a doubt the best thing I've ever used for sweating. I have hyperhidrosis and have used EVERYTHING.

                          I've used every over the counter deodorant possible, I've used every over the counter doctor recommended deodorant possible, and I actually have prescription deodorant because my sweating WAS so out of control.

                          Out of desperation I was supposed to get Botox because I literally sweat 24/7. It doesn't matter if I'm active and on fire or asleep and freezing.

                          I became a fan of Lush when I moved to Seattle and decided to give this a try and it changed my life. The only downfall of the Aromaco is its smell, to me at least, otherwise it's amazing. I only apply it once a day and there's not a drop of sweat. I swear by it.

                          • Q:

                            About a week and a half ago I threw my traditional deodorant/anti-perspirants away and decided to take a more natural approach. I purchased the Aromaco and have been using it together with my Karma powder dusted on top. I slightly dampen the Aromaco so it glides on easier. I've been loving it, however I now have not one, not even two, but 4 clogged sweat glands! It's extremely painful and irritating. After the first one appeared I thought perhaps it was a good sign that I was detoxing from the use of anti-perspirants, but now after the fourth has appeared I can't help but think maybe it's the new products. Should I discontinue my beloved new lush cocktail? Please help!

I started keeping the deodorant on my bathroom counter but I've found that it is really drying out. Should I be keeping it in a plastic bag or tupperware of some variety? Or is the drying normal?

                              It is best to store Aromaco in a sandwich bag or container, as you suggest. When it is purchased, it comes in one of our baggies or in a resealable deli container, so if these ware out, it is best to find a similar, suitable replacement to store it in.

                              These bars can be a little bit messy to work with because they are naked, meaning they do not contain any packaging. Some customers find success with picking off a small piece of the bar and using one finger to apply it.

                            Tried a sample of this product and it was very easy to apply -- responded to body heat and glided on easily. Got the full-size and it was not soft at all -- almost unusable because it doesn't respond to body heat, stays solid and is actually pretty abrasive and painful to apply. Is there something wrong with the bar I got? Is there something I can do to soften it up?

                              The Aromaco deodorant is designed to be applied directly onto the underarm but you can also break off a small, pea sized amount and gently melt this into the skin as well. As applying the bar directly onto your skin is not working for you I would recommend trying this method instead.

                            I have a huge concern with the use of propylene glycol in this product. I stopped using over the counter products because of the aluminum. I tried your product...loved it. But realized it works almost like over the counter products. I don't sweat...yeah. So I decided to look up the ingredients. I found propylene glycol and did a bit of research. This product to me is just as dangerous as aluminum. Here is what I found...In the skin and hair products, propylene glycol works as a humescent, which causes retention of moisture content of skin or cosmetic products by preventing the escape of moisture or water. I don't see this as "natural". Please explain why you use this product and how its ok to replace aluminum with propylene glycol?

                              Propylene glycol is generally recognized as safe for use in foods, cosmetics and medicines. In the way we use it in our deodorants it does not pose health concerns and our inventors spend a lot of time carefully researching and selecting safe ingredients. Ingredients are chosen primarily based on whether or not they have long records of safe use for cosmetics purposes.


                              Propylene glycol is a humectant, meaning it attracts and holds moisture from escaping out of the skin. Lots of ingredients- both synthetic and natural- are humectant. This makes sense, for instance with body moisturizing- no one would want to use a body lotion that wouldn't keep their skin hydrated for more than a couple of minutes, right? Other examples of humectant ingredients are things like glycerin, lanolin, and coconut oil.

                              In Aromaco, we use this particular humectant to help carry the water-based ingredients (like the chamomile vinegar and witch hazel infusion) into the skin. We only use propylene glycol in safe concentrations and are confident in our inclusion of it in products such as solid deodorants and bar soaps for making the products perform in a desirable and safe fashion.

                              If you prefer not to use any products containing this ingredient, I'd recommend giving the Coconut deodorant, or the T'eo deodorant a try instead.

                            Is this an antiperspirant as well or solely a deodorant?

                              Aromaco is a deodorant, but does not contain aluminum salts or ingredients that would block the pores from being able to release sweat. At LUSH we feel it's healthy to perspire to cool ourselves down, but Aromaco and the other deodorants will eliminate odors, and help absorb excess moisture.

                              For me, it doesn't work as an antiperspirant, I still sweat but it just doesn't smell gross. lol It might depend on the person and their body chemicals though. You might want to ask LUSH themselves and see if you can get a real answer.

                              Although all Lush deodorants are really effective at masking odor and minimizing sweat, they do not contain aluminum which is what makes antiperspirants prevent you from sweating. Aluminum has been proven to be a carcinogen and blocking sweat from exiting your body is just a bad idea in general!

                              It is not an antiperspirant; it only functions as a deodorant.

                              I feel it works just as well as any name brand antiperspirants as well as a deodorant.

                              This is not an anti-perspirant. This is a deodorant which works by killing the bacteria in your sweat which cause odors. I've tried many natural deos and it seems like different things really work for different people depending on their own chemistry. I'd recommend going to a store in person and seeing if you can get a sample if you're worried about shelling out $$ for something which might not work for you.

                              I believe it is solely a deodorant. I does not stop perspiration but when you do sweat, you don't stink you smell more natural.

                              For me, it didn't eliminate wetness. The ingredients I saw listed are used to tighten pores and kill bacteria. So if you don't sweat much, it may work out for you.
