I use the rexona one that's like rubbing soap on. I like it because it dries super fast. Tbh I don't stink anyway so it works for me but I don't know how it would hold up if you were a little more pongy in that area.

Does it cause any dryness of the skin if it’s got a soapy texture and dries super fast?

Much of a scent with that Rexona one?

A slight scent on application but after that I can't smell anything. No drying out otherwise I'd be very itchy.

I tend to find those deodorant sticks aren't great for me, they leave a stubborn residue of aluminium on my skin and in my clothing that is difficult to remove (and traps bacteria/stimk). Same for the squeeze up cream formulas. (Weirdly I find 'clinical' formulas kind of suck?)

Pong is definitely more of an issue than wetness so maybe not the right fit for me (I do shower regularly)
