essano Natural Deodorant Reviews

Who enjoys talking about body odour? Not me! I generally love Essano products and other deodorants irritate my sensitive skin. I bought this product in Lily-Flower. It’s alright, not amazing. I was really hoping it would soothe my skin as recently it’s been very irritated and itchy. Doesn’t seem to have helped much, but certainly hasn’t made the problem any worse! As for protection, I haven’t really noticed much of a difference to be honest. Certainly not 8-hour protection unfortunately..

Lovely scents to choose from, but unfortunately it did not keep me from becoming smelly during the day. I tried for over a week. Good to use for a short time, but will need to be regularly applied.

I want to love natural deodorants but haven't had great experiences in the past with them. This one however has restored my faith slightly.

I have been using the Mandarin scented one which smells deliciously citrusy.

In terms of performance it works about as well as any basic aluminum deodorant, but doesn't have all the nasties. It also has a standard roll on application.

It is still quite pricy, but definitely one of the more affordable natural deodorants. I'd definitely look at using it again.

I’ve been using this for a month now and I’m still not 100% sold. On the essano website there’s a helpful chart which walks you through what to expect when your body is ‘detoxing’ from aluminium deodorant, so I knew the second and 4th week would be the worst in terms of having to stay on top of reapplying throughout the day. However, I definitely found that right from day 1 I was having to reapply 2-3 times a day. Super disappointing considering this is advertised as 8 hour protection! I have been using the purple lily flower one, so maybe it was the flowery scent fading away faster than some of the other scents they stock. Bottle itself is okay, nothing overly exciting. Seems to be a standard looking roller bottle, although the plastic felt a bit sturdier than some. Fits nicely in my handbag. The deodorant itself is weird, definitely more runny than most but also feels a bit powdery on the actual roller ball itself. The smell is really nice when you first apply, but wears off quickly. I am on my second bottle after 4 weeks, so does seem to last a little longer than other brands. At the price though ($7.99 on special) I don’t think I’ll be buying another bottle.

Worst aluminium free deodorant I’ve ever tried and I have trialled a few throughout the years. It stinks 5 minutes after application, I swear it even makes me sweat and stink more than without any deodorant at all. It is also not the detoxing stage since I haven’t used aluminium deos for a while now, I’m currently using it up because I hate wasting product and I feel sorry for my work colleagues, lol! I also have another scent to use up after this one, fingers crossed that’ll be a little better.

I like the smell of this deodorant, although it fades reasonably quickly. I am using the lily flower, but will try Mandarin next time. This does the trick for me, although it isn't summer yet, and I currently have a pretty sedentary lifestyle (working from my desk all day), so I haven't really tested it at a potentially sweaty time yet! At first I missed the strong perfume of my old deodorant, but after getting used to this one being a bit more gentle, I don't miss it as much. Love that it is aluminum free.

Ummmm I'm not a smelly person and usually love the natural deodorants they work really well for me this found I just found to br sticky I can't speak for the other scents buy this was was.....just kinda ewwww I thought the sweet smell would be quite fresh and nice but this was sickly sweet and then when your natural odor does come through its just yuck not a good combo. I am interested to see if the other scents are better but then I just dont think it really performed as well as other formulas I've had others that I can be sweating all day and still never get the bad smells. It's just a no for this one

I love layering deodorants. I was excited when I saw this because its always good to see a new brand come through. Ive tried a few essano products and what I've found is that there's highs and lows between each product.

Packaging brightly coloured eye catching. Presented well, Consistency is translucent while with a herbaceous orange scent. I wore this for 8 and half hours. Protection was there but not enough to mask my body odour.

Overall pricing is correct. Looks good but not really good at protection so with that being said over all its good but not really long lasting.

Got gifted the Lily Flower scent, was really excited to try as I’ve heard good things about the essano deodorants. But just like the title it was pretty meh… didn’t work for me at all. After half an hour I was sweating as if I’d not even put deodorant on! I have been using aluminium free for a while so wasn’t the whole my body’s getting used to it stage either! I mean the Lily flower scent is nice but again it didn’t last long at all. It did feel nice on the skin upon application but it kind of made my armpits stick not long after and left an odd residue inside my shirt. Overall I wouldn’t recommend if you are wanting to ditch the aluminium, definitely try another brand as you don’t want to be put off it. There definitely are other great Al free deodorant brands out there just make sure to do your research!
