But when it comes in contact with bacteria, it causes odor. That’s where antiperspirant and deodorant come to the rescue. These two products have similarities, but they aren’t the same thing. Antiperspirants work by closing or blocking the pores with astringents so that they can’t release sweat. Antiperspirants contain fragrance, but they also contain chemical compounds that block the pores to stop the discharge of perspiration. Bottom line with antiperspirant? No sweat, no odor. Deodorants work by neutralizing the smell of the sweat and by antiseptic action against bacteria. Deodorants don’t prevent sweating, but tame odor by combating it with antiseptic agents, which kill odor-causing bacteria. Over $100 in beauty savings.
