Any recommendations for boy-agreeable non-Axe products? OP here and my son is sensitive to smells and would keel over if confronted with Axe-level "scent" load.

Not OP but a single mom of a 10 yr old boy. What deodorant do your sons like? Please don't let it be Axe, please don't let it be Axe...

It's normal. Just give him the deodorant.

My 12 DS has no smell except feet after sports but DD was stinky at 9 1/2.

My MIL was a 5th grade teacher for years and always said this was the time they need to start.

Yep, 4th or 5th grade. It wasn't his pits but his hair. Smelled just like the dog. Awful.

3rd or 4th grade I think.
All I recall is a stinky boy sitting at my kitchen table and all of us laughing because he stunk and knew it.
The next day I went and bought a little leather shaving/travel bag and hit the travel size shelves filling it up with all kinds of hygiene products.
I put the filled bag in his room on his bed with a note saying try different products, tell me what you like and I'll get full size for you.
From that day on, I created a vain monster. To this day he is a primper. Not sissy, but very aware of his looks. He always smells good.

OTH, my 7 yr old DD's been having stinky feet lately. That's a lot worse than my 19 yr old DS's sweaty smell. I make DD wash her feet when she gets home. And yes, I deodorize her shoes.
oopsies, meant my 10 yr old DS, not 19.

As in, when did he start smelling like a teenage boy rather than a lovely, B.O. free child?
Our son is 9 and in 4th grade. Nanny reports that he stinks when returning home from school. I will admit that I had not yet noticed the stench of sweaty boy on him, so I'm wondering when it's normal for boys to start to smell awful (while still loved, of course) and need deodorant, all that good stuff.
