Allergies and sensitivities can't be trained away.

My bad, Certain Dri, not drysol. Different name, same idea.

Thai crystal spray. Totally unscented and actually works.

Thanks everyone! With COVID our usual go to the store and smell things strategy is out. And since I got laid off, I really don’t want to buy a bunch of options right now.

These are a great start!

My husband and I use “Sure unscented, invisible solid” and my son uses that and/or “Arm & Hammer Unscented, solid.”

I’m like your son, in that I hate sticky and scents, and the Sure doesn’t feel sticky to me.

Sometimes the White deodorants are not as irritating to the skin as the clear.

^ Dove advanced care sensitive unscented solid^ Invisible type deodorants tend to be sticky and slimy, imo.

Dove unscented sensitive works for my ds, who has sensitivity to scents as well as sensory issues. The original plan was that I would take him to Target and he could sniff the various unscented brands, but covid blew up and I happened to have the Dove. It works, for now.

My 11yo DS has just noticed that occasionally when sweaty he has BO. He doesn’t like the smell, but really struggles with other artificial smells- some perfumes give him headaches, he notices scented laundry detergent etc.

It doesn’t help that his teen sister is all about the floral scents for everything.

I am trying to figure out a deodorant or antiperspirant option for him with no smell. Has anyone found one their son likes? He also isn’t excited about something wet or sticky in his armpits, so I figure this might take a while to figure out.
