Native earns mixed-to-positive reviews: its deodorants and body washes smell exceptional and many users say they work for everyday wear, while others report short wear time, residue, and staining. Reviews praise clean-feeling formulas, sensitive-skin options, and standout scents like Coconut & Vanilla, Eucalyptus & Mint, and Citrus & Herbal Musk, but note inconsistent odor control in heat/workouts, occasional rashes or grit, and cardboard-packaging ergonomics.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
Love the different scents and how widely available it is. The only downside with a natural deodorant is that it doesn't last as long and most likely will need to be reapplied.
Love the scents!
Native deodorant has been incredibly effective for me. It's kept me smelling nice through intense summer heat and spin classes. A natural deodorant with the ability to last and perform is impressive.
Loved the smell of the coconut one (orange packaging). It also lasted a pretty long time.
Feedback
It's a great deodorant but doesn't hold up very well with a workout. I have a different deodorant for that.
I’ve used Native for years! It’s my favorite natural deodorant. I love their scent options and the fact that they now offer plastic-free packaging. PSL was my favorite (rip 😢), but I really like the cupcake scent, coconut vanilla, and citrus and herbal musk. Do I still sweat a little? Yes, but that’s pretty standard for natural deodorant. Their body wash and hair products are nice, too!
I love that Native Deodorant's deodorants are aluminum-free. I tried the Coconut & Vanilla on a long-distance trip I was going on and didn't know when I would have the opportunity to reapply. It surprisingly held up pretty well despite my hyperhidrosis! The smell is a familiar vanilla with subtle tropical coconut vibes -- it's approachable without being too overly intense or fragrant. I like it contains natural ingredients to help curb sweating.

Price point, gritty texture, plastic use - use more eco-friendly packaging

I’m a huge fan of native. I’m not a stinky person so I wasn’t looking for a super strong deodorant. I love the website and that you can create your own custom deo.
Feedback
Maybe slightly cheaper? It does last a while tho!
I tried the Apple and Honeysuckle deodorant and liked the smell. I have it about a month of use, but despite the pleasant smell of the deodorant, my body odor was just so bad that I quit using it. Not sure if I’m an odd case, but found that it wasn’t working for me.
Feedback
Some of the scents are nauseating.

Native is great aluminum-free natural deodorant. The product is clear, but I find it takes a few minutes to dry fully. I have only purchased at target stores and have not used their website.
Native products, mainly deodorant, nail the blend of high-quality, natural ingredients and great-smelling fragrances. All deodorants have lasted longer than others I've used.
Feedback
The price is definitely higher than others drugstore brands; however, the efficacy, natural ingredients and fragrances are worth it.
I used to use native deodorant very consistently, and I always thought that it was a great option. In the last few months I wonder if the formula has changed. I use the sensitive formula, but I started to develop very dry patches of skin.
Feedback
If the formula has changed recently on the sensitive sku, it caused some sort of reaction on my skin.
Good price point. I bought mine at CVS and have the coconut scent, but the scents not very strong or long-lasting. I think my boyfriend's dove soap literally has a nicer smell.
Really wanted to love this, but unfortunately didn’t work well for me. Had a nice smell and is cheaper/on par with other natural deodorants, but it didn’t work out for me.
Crumbles easily and smells OK
Feedback
Improve formula to prevent crumbling
Smells great and is natural. This is a deodorant though, not an anti perspirant. I find they work great, it doesn't glide on super smooth but it works as intended and has great scents!
I used native deodorant on and off for about four years. It takes quite a bit of time to get used to but works fine when you do. It blocks odor, not sweat, and drops white when you’re sweating. I do not recommend for working out.
Was searching for years to find an aluminum-free deodorant that provides lasting odor protection, and this is it! Love the coconut & vanilla scent. Also very happy that they have a plastic-free packaging option.
Feedback
Would be five stars if the formulation was clear, not pasty. Also not crazy about the ozokerite ingredient - a mineral oil with carcinogenic potential (when ingested.)

Feels weird to put on
Feedback
I’m not a fan. I felt that it hurt putting it on, and wasn’t smooth.

I’ve tried multiple native products and the deodorants have never worked for me. The scents are great! But they don’t last long

I've used their body wash and deodorant. Loved the body wash, I couldn't always tell if the deodorant worked, but overall I like it.
