i used to use this brand in the water orchid scent for like 3 years but one day it just seemed like it quit working. so im not using it anymore. but it did the job for the duration of the time i used to use this product. the smell is a nice flowery one w/o being overpowering or competing with perfumes and it mixed well with my own body pH. because thats important! overall it was a good product but now that it quit working i am onto something else. i tried secret's outlast collection (sport fresh scent) and it SUCKS!!! does not do anything to hold up to this florida heat. i would return it if i could

I got the Fresh Water Orchid scent because it smelled so good in the store, but when I actually put it on it had a very off-putting, cloyingly sweet scent. Not only was it overwhelming, it was long-lasting in a bad way. I couldn't cover it up with body spray, and when I showered I could still smell it.

Keeps me dry and has great odor protection. I just find the packaging bulky and there isn't a whole lot of product compared to the amount of packaging.

I bought this deodorant to try something new (I usually use Dove) and this one in particular doesn't absorb anything on my skin. Literally 5 hours through the day, the deodorant is just chilling under my arms and it's quite embarrassing to say the least... Once the stick is used up I will go back to Dove.

The best deordorant I have tried hands down. I got the cucumber and aloe scent since I wanted something soft that would smell fresh but not compete with any other scents. The packaging is really cute and the cap has an irridesant effect like others have mentioned that stands out from other deordorants. I was amazed the first time I tried this, I felt dry all day long and the scent was still lingering throughout the day. This also leaves me dry during sports and gym class unlike my previous Dove deordorant. You deffinently get what you pay for and I will always have this.

This stuff is great! It lasts long and smells really good (but not too strong). I purchased the "calming garden" scent. The only curious thing about it is that it has little tiny reddish specks in it! Not sure why, but it is still a great all around deodorant.

I love love love this stuff! I don't sweat much, but I have a hard time finding a deodorant that doesn't clash with my chemistry. I've had no problems with this one at all. I also love that it doesn't have a strong scent. It's subtle and fresh and you hardly notice it. I have tried the orchid and the cucumber. The cucumber barely has any scent at all, and the orchid is really soft and pretty. Keeps me dry and smelling fresh all day!

This was a bit of a pleasant surprise for me; I had purchased Secret's Va Va Vanilla, and horrified with its sickly sweet smell (nothing like sickly sweet sweat) I rushed out to the drugstore and picked up what I felt was most promising. I'm not a huge sweater, but enough to scout out the deodorants with a higher concentration of aluminum; Secret Fresh Effects contains 19% aluminum zirconium, and the scents were pleasant and subtle, so that's what went home with me.




This particular deodorant/antiperspirant works so well. I feel dry all day, and I can't smell perfume coming from my armpits, but I still can rest assured I'm fresh and clean-smelling. I particularly love the Orange Blossom Verbena, and I'd love to try out the Blueberry White Tea, if only I could find it in drugstores nearby. An added plus is that it doesn't leave white marks on my clothes, nor can you see streaks of it on my skin.

I live in a very hot and humid area, so deodorants are always put to the test. Most don't fight sweat well enough, but so far, this has proven to be a miracle worker...
I haven't tried it with rigorous exercise yet, but it's lasted all day out in the heat and humidity. The Cucumber Aloe scent is perfect, not too overbearing. It's very fresh smelling, and doesn't turn stale if I sweat. It hasn't left noticable white stains on my clothes, and it goes on very sheerly.
One last thing to mention is the packaging. It's cute for a deodorant, and I love the iridescent effect.

This is the best deodorant/antiperspirant i have ever used. What attracted me to buy this was that the packaging looked so nice compared to other ones. Well i think all of secret's packaging are awesome and this is my favourite deodorant brand. When i opened the product, it had the secret logo on the deodorant! so cool! I got the one in cucumber aloe. After i sweat a bit i noticed that i smelt cucumber aloe and after that i got why its called fresh effects. It helps me a lot for sweating and doesn't leave a white mark on my clothes. i will definitely keep repurchasing.

I have tried every deodorant out there and am ALWAYS left unsatisfied.. Either I get white marks, or the particular deodorant scent smells funky after a few hours of wearing or sometimes BOTH. The only deodorant that doesn't leave white marks on clothing is men's clear stick, but the HUGE drawback is it smells manly and unfeminine. I FINALLY found a product that works for me; I stay dry all day, deodorant goes on smooth and not at all chalky, and the wild orchid scent is subtle but beautiful. I know it's weird but people "check" to see how they smell and I am always so impressed and pleased with my purchase! Best of all no white marks yet! I will repurchase this deodorant brand for the rest of my life! I was going to use Tom's natural deodorant in peach because I worry about the aluminum causing cancer, but then I am so happy with this product wish it could come aluminum free!! I wish they had a body spray in orchid and body wash too .. It's so delicious!!

Oh and another bonus is the packaging it's super pretty and iridescent on both the outside of the package and the product itself also has an iridescent sheen to it! Very pretty!

I purchased the invisible solid in orange blossom verbena. I normally use other Secret deodorants (Flawless in conditioning solid, or Clinical Strength in advanced solid), and the consistency of those is different - it's more like a liquid, actually, and absorbs into the skin more. This one is a more traditional deodorant stick, and it sits on top of my skin, rather than absorbing. While it works just as well to keep me from sweating/smelling, I noticed while doing laundry that many of my shirts have white buildup at the armpits that wasn't there before. I won't repurchase this, just because it's a pain to scrub deodorant out of fabric.

I love this more than Secret original. This keeps me nice and dry, with a fresh, clean scent! (Water Orchid lily) or something like that.

Really great!!

I really like this deodorant, in fact, it's my favorite one I've used this far. Fresh Effects come in a very pretty pink pearlescent package, so I love keeping it on my night stand, it looks so feminine! I have it in Fresh Water Orchid. It smells very clean and a has a feminine hint of floral and a tad bit of fruitiness. This deodorant does exactly what it's advertised to do, when one sweats, it releases a bit of the scent. I catch whiffs of the scent all day, and not in a nauseating way. It smells great and I love it. It does not wear off, even in my 8 hour busy work days. I deducted one lipstick because it's not an invisible solid, and you gotta be a little careful when you put on black clothing. :)

I decided to try this when I saw it on a new display in Walmart. I am now on my second stick! I have tried both the Water Fresh Orchid scent and the Orange Blossom Verbena and I can say the scent really does last all day. This is a great antiperspirant! Of the new ones I have tried this is a close second to the Secret Flawless Touch in Wildflower Fresh but both are great, work well and smell really good!
