  • Refined, memorable fragrances

  • Inconsistent odor longevity
  • Occasional white residue transfer
  • Gritty, sticky deodorant texture

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.

  • Love the scent of the coconut and vanilla deodorant body spray. It is lovely, but after a full days of work as a nurse it doesn’t last. It wears off at some point and doesn’t do a great job of keeping me fresh smelling. I still continue to use it over stick deodorant because it doesn’t leave any white residue. But, it may not last the whole day.

  • This deodorant is nice because its eco friendly, but I do not like the fact that there isnt a scent to them.

  • Amazing scents. Body wash is fantastic, deodorant does not work for me.

  • 5 stars for the spray and 3 stars for the solid stick averages to 4 stars total. The spray is amazing. Nothing natural works like that one does so it’s the main one I use now. The only drawback is that if I have razor burn, it stings a little. It stops sweat and smells great. The solid stick, however, made me leave a strange residue on clothing. It’s hard to clean off and sometimes needs to be spot treated.

  • I have been using this deodorant for 5 years. And most of the other product they make. The deodorant is amazing. Curly hair shampoo and conditioner works amazing on my mix kids hair. And the face wash is gentle.

  • Works in a pinch but doesn’t last all day. I would reach for my other deodorants first. It leaves a thicker layer of residue on my underarms than normal. The scent options are nice though.

  • Love this brand. Took me a long time to find a better for me deo that actually worked

  • Products smell great but not worth it for the price. The deodorant does not last, though it is best smelling natural deodorant I have tried. I love the shampoo but the price point is just too high for it.

  • I wanted to like this product… it worked well for about the first week and then it just didn’t anymore. I tried different versions of it and had the same issue. Maybe it my body chemistry?

  • This was a great deodorant to use, however the smell of the deodorant did not last as long as I was hoping

  • Native is great, smells amazing and has a very smooth consistency. I also love good packaging and Native has very clean and simple containers. Plus the mini deodorants are so cute. I talk about Native so much my mom bought me a bundle of Native products as a birthday gift.

  • I think this is the best clean deodorant on the market, that being said, you still need to reapply from time to time!

  • Really good smells and comfort level! Would love an aspect to make it a little less tacky with the deoderant! But otherwise an amazing product Id purchase again!

  • This is my go to deodorant! When I was younger, I would always fight with my mom because she mentioned that the aluminum in deodorant wasn’t good for you, but there was never any options that didn’t contain the ingredient. It’s so nice that native came onto market with an affordable product that all smell amazing and have cool packaging and branding for us girls who just want to stay healthy and not pollute our bodies with unnecessary chemicals.

  • This is my favourite clean deodorant on the market, and I've tried at least 10 other brands. It doesn't leave a weird residue, smells really good and keeps me not smelling bad. My only complaint is that it's a little expensive for a product that only lasts a month or so.

  • I so badly wanted to like this product — the packaging is sleek, the scents are unique and clean, and it’s accessible in most stores (in the event I’m traveling and forget to pack deodorant)… but it somehow made me smell worse than if I hadn’t used anything at all. Such a bummer, but I’m glad it works for others.

  • I love Native's deodorant. I usually only use the Lavender and Rose and it smells great. It lasts throughout the day and I rarely have to reapply. It has even helped to lighten my underarms which was a major plus for me since I wear a lot of sleeveless tops. The only downside for me is the price is a little steep for deodorant, but it is still worth the buy for a better cleaner product.

  • Love this brand. I have tried a lot of deodorant brands and this one is by far one of my favorites. Smells amazing and the scent lasts for so long. It also does cause any skin irritation which was a problem for me in the past.
