Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Thanks to Costco fueled bulk buying, between the last time I bought deodorant and this week, my deodorant changed from the Scent of Adventure to the Scent of Cypress.

So is Cypress the sum total of adventure or an overdue respite?

Well I think you bought "Aluminum Free," whereas the one on the left doesn't say that. That brand sells both aluminum-full snd aluminum-free.

The "aluminum full" one you are referring to is the antiperspirant deodorant, while the "aluminum free" one is just a deodorant.

Neither of these in the picture are antiperspirant deodorant.

They were both aluminum free, one's just not labeled. I had to give up on antiperspirant a long time ago because it made my skin weird. Still, weirdly, kind of miss it though.

My takeaway is that Aluminum=adventure

Like tent poles and aircraft ĥulls. Checks out

Continuous use of aluminum-based antiperspirant actually makes you sweat more overall, so OP probably made a good choice.

I'm aware, and agree
