Just seen an addy for this on the box.

How long does a deodorant need to last?
3 days?
3 days without you having a wash?

Really???

Would you buy one and take it to the checkout - and have the cashier look at you and think "manky git...just shower more frequently"

Hm I wear 48 hour deo but I still wash and change clothing everyday. I guess it means it just protects you more. I suppose if I were in the wilderness then 72 hour deo might be useful. But even during Lockdown 1 I washed everyday!

dont think the op understands the advert. maybe english is not their first language

on what planet did deodorants ever replace bathing ?

it's just advert guff, the claim that the lasting power and effectiveness
of the deodorant is substantially more than its rivals can't really be scientifically refuted,
so they can say any old tosh

Erm - not sure how to respond to that except with science.....

Bathing with soap and water... deodorant washes off.

If you had a choice of 1 hour protection or 72 hour for the same price which would you buy

Any product that last 24 hours would be more than sufficient

I've seen 24 hours, and even 48 hours.
But a company has decided - Oh no - Mr Spare Tyre..... your pits may be far too sweaty..... what you really really need is the 72 hour.


So back to you. I'm curious.
Are your bathing habits sufficient for the 24 hours... or perhaps the 48 hours... or the 72 hours.

As per my original post - I'm just struggling to see why anyone needs a 72 hour deodorant.
But every day is a school day......

Reminds me of the '24 hour girdle'. Often wondered what would happen if a lady were to inadvertently wear one for 25 hours???

Don’t get me wrong, I wash each Christmas whether I need it or not

I’m just saying 72 hour would sound like it’s better stuff than 24 hour if you are one to fall for marketing hype.

Might buy some of this for a work mate. When he comes in the office I open the window.

I'd like to think no one puts that to the test! But I hope it's done to prove they can be hardwearing throughout the day, rather than discourage people from showering.

yep, the disinfectant that claimed it killed 78% of household germs was never really gonna
make any money.

I can put up with some funny looks on the bus when i consider the money I save by not using
my gas boiler to provide hot bath water and not using leccy to launder and spin-dry loads of towels.

In fact we should all refuse to bathe till the government brings gas and electricity prices back to
2020 prices.

You are not allowed deodorants on submarines!!

No aromatics allowed at all.
Then you have water rationing when then evaps fall over.
