I LOVED the scent (I got the purple one). I just think the packaging is cool but wasn't the best for the product and hard to get to come out. But I love the scent and results!
AKT first caught my eye with their beautiful branding and packaging! A couple of years ago I decided to treat my myself and AKT did not disappoint. The After Thunder scent is seriously one of the best natural deodorants I’ve ever used. The scent stays on all day, keeps me pretty dry and smells incredible, the only downside is the application but I found myself getting used to it after the first few times. The Orange Blossom scent wasn’t my favourite but they’ve since bought out a couple of new scents that i’m keen to try. I really wish they were stocked locally in Australia because it feels quite boujee to order deodorant from the UK.

I have struggled with BO (especially when I'm stressed) my entire life. Something that really bothers me about products like Carpe and Lume - they block the sweat pores, so yes, my pits are dryer, but the sweat just comes out other places. That feels like just changing the problem instead of actually addressing it. AKT is awesome! It is the only natural deodorant that has actually fixed my smell issue (Native for example does nothing for me). It actually addressess the root issue rather than just covering it up. I love how little you use, how portable it is, and how eco friendly it is. Seriously awesome product, totally worth the money for how long it lasts. And the smell is amazing, though I'll probably get the unscented next.

Truly the best natural deodorant I have ever used and I have tried many. It keeps me pretty dry and smelling good all day! I like to apply to a dry armpit after a shower and occasionally before bed. So far I have only tried one scent, but I am excited to try them all! I am using SC.01, Orange Grove, which smells like a fresh garden with a little sweetness. Super real, not artificial smelling. The tube key is great for getting product out. I am so excited to finally have a natural deodorant I love!
Scent is amazing and the stuff really works. Application by hand takes a minute to get used to but I love how they're spinning an age-old category on its head.
Really liked this product. It is very effective.
Obsessed with the Violet + Tonka bean fragrance. It sounds insincere but this is a natural deodorant that actually works as well for me as any synthetic one. I thought the metal tube would be a pain but with the little metal key it works a treat and so far my tube has lasted over 4 months, used every day. LOVE.
I was a little sceptical at first but was really looking forward to trying an all-natural deodorant. Overall I'm impressed. Love the packaging + does the job well :)

It can be hard to get the deodorant out sometimes, especially in a cold bathroom!
I was a bit skeptical at first because I've a) never used a deodorant in balm form and b) never spent more than a couple of quid on a deodorant. But this genuinely did change my life! Smells amazing, and you really do not smell a thing afterwards. I'd been looking for a natural and non-toxic deodorant for a while. Tried a crystal stick (worked for a bit then stopped working) and various other brands. This is honestly amazing. I started using it last October so I didn't have the chance to test it out in a gig or festival setting, but after this summer I can safely say, it works all the time. Really really well.

Nada!
Love these deodorants!!! I searched everywhere for a natural sustainable deodorant, and there is always something wrong,....The smell funky, I smell funky or they leave stains... This is the first one that leaves me and my bf smelling nice the whole day, even though exercise! And it's super cute and convenient. They all smell amazing too, so sometimes we share it on our travels! Oh and the subscribtion is cool tho, as you can pospone it to whenever, but you get good discounts and shipping!
Lovely smell, lasts for a very long time and keeps me smelling fresh regardless of the weather. The assisstant is in my opinion a must! A very small quantity goes a long way and its not greasy or slimy, it leaves my skin feeling amazing every time. My only but to this great product is that it does tend to leak a little bit of oil every now and then. This is due to the plastic free packaging (the cap seal is not the best), and its a sacrifice I am happy to make for the environment.
Prior to this I always used Mitcham 24 hr. Anything less never worked. I have the neroli (orange ) tube. It smells wonderful and it really does deodorizer well I'm impressed and suspect I will buy another tube qhem this one is out. Meant to be much better for skin too.

Would be nice to get a sample pack that includes all 4 different scents. Wpuld recommend buying the key as it's really hard to squeeze the last bit out of the tube without it
The best natural deodorant, the application takes some getting used to as it's a cream not roll on but scents are all excellent and lasts through gym usage.
Feedback
Hard to get out of the tube at times, the key makes it easier and occasionally warming it under a tap.
The deodrants are great- smell fantastic and no weird chalky feel to them like other alternatives
Feedback
I had a reaction to one deodrant but thought that the customer service rep who spoke with me was great- prompt, offered to exchange/ refund me straight away

This was the second natural deodorant I used, and absolutely loved it. I was a little skeptical at first, given how it differs from other deodorant, natural or not, but glad I gave it a shot. Haven't gone back to any other deodorant since trying this. The Applicator feels great to use, although I don't end up using it most days and just rub the deodorant in. Can't wait until they get more scents.
Feedback
Honestly, not sure there's anything to improve. I know some people have had trouble with it when using it in the cold, but I haven't had any issues so far.

This was the first 'natural deodorant' I've used, drawn to it whilst equally phasing out plastic products and choosing cruelty-free-only. I used the 'After Thunder' fragrance and honestly would consider wearing it in lieu of perfume. It's rich-smelling and gives me that perfect woody scent I usually find in brands like Aesop. I LOVE this deodorant, and it just worked straight away — I hear of transitional phases with nat deo but this one was great from the start.

I'd recommend getting the assistant key to help get the balm out during colder months, the tube gets quite stiff if it's not warmed up.
