I have this product in the 50g package size for occasional use. The first thing you will probably notice about this product is the scent. It states on the package that it is made with 'certified organic cinnamon bark oil' and the strong cinnamon scent is very noticeable, and sticks with you all day. I quite like this smell, so it isn't an issue per se, just something to consider. This product has a very effective strong hold, and is very useful for holding a hairstyle in place. It does dry quite stiff and hard in my experience, so it may not be the right product for more flexible styles with movement. My one issue with the packaging is that it is difficult to dispense only a small amount of product, and it tends to drip at the nozzle if you try to press lightly for less product. Overall, the product is fast drying and easy to brush out of hair.

Having tried some of the other vegan options available in deodorants, many of which were 'hippy brands' free from aluminium which offered me no antiperspirant protection, I finally came upon this product in the Natio range. This deodorant is marketed 'for men', so the scent is not floral, but is still pleasant and reminiscent of clean laundry with a hint of incense spice. This product has never irritated my somewhat sensitive skin. It's antiperspirant qualities are about as good as any other product I have tried, but may not stand up to particularly heavy sweating, so I would suggest it is useful for basic everyday use. This deodorant comes in a large bottle (100mL) and lasts me a long time. Of the 3 or 4 bottle I have been through, I have never had any issues with defective packaging. The roller ball applicator does not generally get stuck and the cap seals tightly. The one major downside of this product is that it does leave white marks on black clothes. With extended use it may even leave definite stains and maybe even damage the fabric. I haven't found this to be a major issue, but it may bother those who regularly wear short sleeve black clothing where the marks may show.
