Carpe Underarm Antiperspirant and Deodorant, Clinical strength with all-natural Eucalyptus scent, Combat excessive sweating Stay fresh and dry, Great for hyperhidrosis

Longevity:It stays! I was honestly shocked at how this deodorant stayed on me when all others I've used have not. Sure, they go on and can smell good, but in less than 24 (many cases way less) hours I really felt like my underarms were without protection and in the case of some (especially Salt & Stone) the stink of BO was noticeable. With this, even after a workout the smell was contained. I don't stink unless I've had a really sweaty day, but this stuff STAYS.Scent:Afrer trying Salt & Stone (awful smells, by the way) off of Amazon, I was so hesitant to buy another brand online without first smelling it, but I decided I'd try it once again. The moment I opened this stick I was in awe of just how amazing the smell was. Strong enough to be enjoyable, but yet just right as to not be overwhelming. Even after hours of having it on, the smell was still there. I will say after a long while, the smell does eventually fade, but the deodorant is still working.Effectiveness:The most effective deodorant I have used to date. Not oy does it seem to prevent the BO smell, if you forgot to apply some, or say you receive your order after day has started and you apply it then (and if you're like me, having had worked out that day) it masks the oder that may have been there, for hours even.Texture:At first I was not sure if I'd like this lotion texture as a deodorant. In the past I've tried the gel like deodorants that were popular in other brands and they were horrible. Causes rashes, felt gunky, and overall were not it. This lotion though, perfect texture. Glides on only feeling slightly damp, but so smooth. After a minute I don't even realize I have it on because of how well it absorbs.Size:The size is my only issue. It's a tiny little thing, but that is not to say you can't get your monies worth out of it. As I've only had mine for a few days now, I can not say how long it'll last. Will update accordingly on this as time goes on.All in all, I will definitely be trying the other scents out, or at the very least be purchasing this (sandalwood) scent again.

If you, like me, experience profuse sweating due to conditions like hyperhidrosis, especially linked with PCOS, then you absolutely need to try this deodorant. I've tried countless products, and this one stands head and shoulders above the rest.My number one priority is staying dry, and this deodorant delivered beyond my expectations. I was 100% dry all day, throughout the night, and even woke up the next morning feeling completely dry and fresh. This level of long-lasting dryness is something I haven't achieved with any other product, and it's truly revolutionary for managing heavy sweating.Beyond the incredible dryness, the odor control is phenomenal. I felt confident and fresh from morning till night, which is invaluable.I also want to highly recommend this for anyone with sensitive skin. Despite its powerful effectiveness, I experienced absolutely no irritation, redness, or discomfort, which can be common with strong antiperspirants.Hands down, this is the best deodorant I have had thus far. It tackles both extreme wetness and odor with grace. If you're struggling with similar issues, do yourself a favor and give this a try!

TL>DR Summary:DO NOT buy this product. While I would not go as far as to say this item is a scam, because it is a real product that does what it says, at $18 (what I paid) per 1.7 oz (50ml) this is 5x more expensive than it should be. If you're in the market for this product specifically, I would suggest you get Degree Advanced 72 Hour instead. If you are looking for a "clinical strength" version of this product, get Certain Dri Extra Stength Clinical Strength. Both of which are 3-5X cheaper. For an everyday "clinical strength", go with Certain Dry Clinical Strength Everyday or Degree Clinical Protection, both 2-3x cheaper.Synopsis:Over the years, as I have aged and become more active, my regular deoderant and antiperspirants stopped becoming effective. I would find myself sweating more often and, as a result, the armpits of my shirts suffered greatly. In doing some shopping for a new antiperspirant, I came across Carpe. A friend of mine said that they had used it and thought I should give it a try, so I did. At the time of purchase I hadn't done a lot of research into antiperspirants but, after having purchased, I wish I had as it would have save me a lot of time. While the product itself is decent, the price ($18) and size make this product a horrible value for what it is actually offering. Further, this product is marketed as though it's "clinical strength" when in reality, it's not at all.Application:The product comes as a soft solid. Basically means that it has more of a "lotion" consistency than a solid. The packaging states to put a thin layer under your arms before bed (as do many of these products) although "thin" layer is up to interpretation. But, nevertheless, apply a small amount at night. While the product is quick drying, I did find that "quick" meant several minutes. I didn't find the formula to be irritating to me although it was sticky at times. However, once it dried I had no further problems. I do wish that the instructions made the amount clearer (such as two turns, four turns, etc.) but it wasn't bad.Fragrance:I decided to go with the Coconut Vanilla scent, mainly because it was cheaper at the time I purchased. The smell isn't super strong but not light either, so in the middle. I'm not a huge fan of coconut smells, but I did not find this one to be unpleasant at all.Results:This is where I had the bulk of my issues. This product uses aluminum sesquichlorohydrate as it's antiperspirant active ingredient. Aluminum sesquichlorohydrate is one of 18 FDA approved aluminum salts and is more gentle on the skin. While not necessarily what would be used in a prescription (that would be aluminum chloride), it's effective. The problem that I have, however, is that this product uses aluminum sesquichlorohydrate @ 15% concentration. This means that while this product has a higher concentration than a typical gentle antiperspirant that uses this active ingredient (as it will usually be 9-10% concentration), it is actually less than many 72 hour antiperspirants that use the same active ingredient (ex. Degree Advanced 72 Hour is 16%). In my testing, in fact, this product is mostly on par to slightly less effective for me than a typical Degree Advanced 72 Hour solid stick, with me getting similar (to just slightly less) dryness results. Thus, if you combine that with the fact that it's a soft solid (and thus, more difficult application), costs $10.58 per oz, and contains less of it's active ingredient than a antiperspirant that regularly comes in a larger, 2.6 oz size and costs $5 in most places ($1.92 per oz), this product is borderline scam. If you are in need of this particular active ingredient at similar concentrations, visit your local store and look at the labels. You'll find some 72 hour sticks with similar concentrations. If you are looking for a "clinical strength" version of this active ingredient, Certain Dri Clinical Strength Extra Strength contains the legal maximum of 25% aluminum sesquichlorohydrate. Like this, it comes as a 1.7 oz solid but is usually around $7-8, making it a much better buy for a much stronger product.Overall:Overall, this is not a product that I can recommend, not at this price point. It's no better than a typical 72 Hour antiperspirant but costs 5x as much. And for a clinical strength version of this particular active ingredient, it's 3x as much. If you suffer from excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) and need something strong, this is definitely not going to be your product. The marketing of the product is good and it has good story, but at the end of the day it boils down to what it's made of and its price point. For its price, it should be much better. I will stick to other products versus this one.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I’ve been trying to get off typical deodorants and have had no luck. I end up sweating more and smelling worse. Mando, Squatch, etc didn’t work. This stuff is wild. Literally almost no sweat,Zero smell even after a 16 hour day sweating hopping out and in an excavators without ac, torching etc while laying a pipeline. This stuff works. Expensive but, oh well. Gotta pay to play
