Review: "So when you put it on right away it’s great. Glides on nicely and smells amazing. Not too strong, but enough that you know it’s there. But does it work? I wore this to a gym glass the day I got it and noticed a big difference between that day and other days prior where I didn’t wear anything (yes I ran out). Now for the real test, I wore it out to a golf tournament. In the sun, walking around, all day. I should have been extra sweaty and extra smelly but alas everything was great! If it can get me through an all day golf tournament it’s the one for me. 10/10 recommend." - Amazon Customer
