• Hot flushes - You sweat more, and at odd times.  Falling oestrogen affects the part of the brain that controls body temperature. Hot flushes and night sweats are your body cooling itself down quickly.
• Body Chemistry - You smell different. As oestrogen drops, the balance with your other hormones shifts. Many women notice their sweat has a stronger, unfamiliar scent.

MASKING FAILS

Most deodorants just cover it up.  A stronger fragrance on top of odour stops working when the odour changes. 

You need an active that traps the odour molecules themselves.

Olphoria chose Zinc Ricinoleate as our active that traps odour molecules.

“This deodorant has zinc ricinoleate in it, which actually helps trap and neutralise odour molecules, instead of just putting a stronger fragrance on top of them.”

Many Natural Deodorant brands do not include Zinc Ricinoleate due to the expense of the ingredient.

We chose to build the best deodorant possible with the finest natural ingredients, and the finest clean fragrance - all formulated in accordance with guidance from our Co-Founder - Dr Munir a UK based Medical Doctor - hear from her below.

It isn't you, and it isn't your hygiene. 

During perimenopause your hormones fluctuate, and your body handles heat and sweat differently. 

The deodorant you've used for years was made for a body that has changed.
