We think it’s fair to say that, in general, women have embraced organic personal care products more than men. In our experience, however, it’s better to “show” rather than “tell” when it comes to convincing males that natural and organic products can perform just as well, if not better than, mainstream, chemical-filled, products.

Natural and organic deodorant is a great place to start and, while the many options can be overwhelming, breaking them down into groups based on need or preference can certainly help in narrowing down the choice. You can click on the product names for more detailed information. So, here we go:
For men who prefer a roll-on:
- Miessence Organic Deodorant – Tahitian Breeze – ‘hands down’ our best-selling deodorant amongst both men and women with a great, unisex fragrance, this is one of those products that ‘flies off the shelf’
- Miessence Organic Deodorant – Ancient Spice – highly rated performance-wise and with a spicy scent that’s well-suited to men
- Santum Men’s Organic Deodorant – with Cedarwood & Sandalwood for a masculine, woody aroma
For men who prefer a spray-on:
- Mukti Botanique Deodorant – award-winning deodorant endorsed by athletes with a fresh unisex fragrance
- Weleda Sage Deodorant Spray – a fresh herbal fragrance that’s also unisex
For men who prefer a stick deodorant:
- Herban Cowboy Deodorant Stick – Dusk – convenient and easy to apply stick formula with (in our opinion) the best masculine scent of all – think traditional men’s fragrance but without the chemicals
- Schmidt’s Natural Deodorant Stick - Cedarwood + Juniper – a warm & woody scent that’s ideal for men
- Schmidt’s Natural Deodorant Stick – Bergamot + Lime – another unisex scent that’s fresh and ‘citrusy’
- Ben & Anna Deodorant Stick Paper Tube – Nordic Timber – great masculine scent with Cedarwood and packaged in an eco-friendly cardboard tube
- Ben & Anna Deodorant Stick Paper Tube – Persian Lime – fresh & zesty unisex scent
For men who prefer fragrance free:
- Miessence Organic Deodorant - Aroma Free –with the power of Bicarb Soda but no fragrance
- Biologika Roll On Deodorant – Fragrance Free – another fragrance-free blend based on the traditional remedy of Bicarb Soda
- Ben & Anna Deodorant Stick Paper Tube – Pure – with Arrowroot & Cornstarch powders to absorb moisture and no fragrance
- Schmidt’s Natural Deodorant Stick – Fragrance Free – with the odour-neutralising power of Bicarb Soda, moisture absorbing Arrowroot powder but still fragrance free
For men with sensitive skin:
- Miessence Organic Deodorant – Magnesium Milk Ultrasenstive – utilising the traditional remedy of Milk of Magnesia in place of Bicarb Soda which can irritate some sensitive skins
- Schmidt’s Natural Deodorant Stick – Sensitive Fragrance Free – using Magnesium Hydroxide, again this one’s Bicarb Soda free and fragrance free
- Schmidt’s Natural Deodorant Stick – Sensitive Coconut Pineapple – Bicarb Soda free, with Magnesium Hydroxide and a gentle tropical scent from natural fragrance
- Schmidt’s Natural Deodorant Stick – Sensitive Tea Tree – with Magnesium Hydroxide and the calming, fresh scent of Tea Tree
For men who need a little more ‘oomph’ in their deodorant (active men and those who sweat a little more):
- Woohoo Deodorant & Anti-Chafe Stick – Wild (Extra Strength) – created with a little more odour neutralising and wetness absorption power, features a lasting citrus scent
