Anti perspirant - stops sweat
De odorant - removes smell.

Lol I get it now, but I guess I always figured with no sweat
There was no smell and different companies added different smells for marketing/preference.never imagined it was two different products. Learn something new everyday I guess.

I have often wondered whether the "crystal" type deodorant would work in the same way as a styptic pencil or alum bar?
