A deodorant is a crucial part of a man’s daily routine. And every man has priorities when choosing their own. While some prefer an all-natural product to care for the armpits, some can’t live without an antiperspirant. All things aside, the most important thing a deodorant should do is its main job: Stabilize body odor. Finding the right deodorant not only matters for a sense of daily freshness, but also because the often overlooked pores and the skin in the underarms need to be treated with the kindness they deserve. Although deodorant is an all-year-round essential, in honor of summer season, we present to you Wonderflaw’s selection of effective deodorants for men that won’t leave you hanging throughout the day.
Atelier Rebul De-Stress Deodorant, 330 TL
This unisex deodorant from Atelier Rebul comes in a spray bottle and has a calming effect thanks to the lavender and spearmint essential oils.

Acqua Di Parma Deodorante alla Colonia, £36
If you’re looking for a stick deodorant with a signature scent, Acqua Di Parma Deodorante alla Colonia is a timeless choice. This alcohol-free formula smells of Acqua di Parma’s classic, Colonia Assoluta. Boasting clean, citrus notes of red orange and bergamot, this deodorant will keep you fresco.
