  3. The Best-Smelling Deodorants

Has anyone else noticed an uptick in stunningly scented deodorants? We sure have. Gone are the days of sickly, sweet and artificial lavender. We’re in our naturally-scented, sophisticated era, thank you. With so many new entries into the deodorant game, we decided to dive into the deep end. From highly-rated favorites to new autumnal scents, these are the best deodorants that leave us fresh and fragranced all day.

Deodorant Is Upping Its Game

Luxury deodorant has entered the chat! With eco-friendly formulas, high-performance results and intoxicating fragrances, the entire category of deodorant and antiperspirant has experienced a major evolution. This year, we’ve seen the rise in whole body deodorants that offer skin-safe solutions from pits to toes. There’s also been a major uptick in serum deodorants, which provide a skin-care boost while fighting funk.

And among it all, the fragrances are fragrancing, if you know what we mean.

New Launches You’ll Love to See on Your Shelf

Just last week the viral perfume by PHLUR, Vanilla Skin, launched in deodorant format. And we could not be more here for it. Known for its creamy blend of vanilla and cashmere, this scent is universally complimentary and plays well with other scents.

“Whether you’re wearing Vanilla Skin Deodorant ($20) with Vanilla Skin Body Mist ($38) or EDP ($99), or if you layer it with any other PHLUR scent, your fragrance won’t fight with the deodorant scent,” explains PHLUR founder Chriselle Lim. “Instead, it can complement it in a subtle way. Also, we really wanted to launch a product that could be a part of everyone’s routine on a daily basis. Hopefully, with Vanilla Skin Deodorant, putting your deodorant on in the morning doesn’t feel as much of a chore!”

That’s not even to mention the limited launches from Native packed with amazing fall fragrances or the new addition to Saltair‘s AHA serum deodorant line, Green Grapefruit. Below, you’ll find our picks for the best-smelling deodorants that will have you forgoing your favorite fragrance.
