I have the spray version and the stick version.. I really like the smell, it is the best scent that i've had in deodorant. For me it doesn't work so good, i get wet armpits. I just purchased the stick version, but i haven't used it yet.. I hope it works better than the spray.

i've been using this for a few years now, re-buying every time i need new deodorant

i love the clean fresh smell that isnt overpowering.
even in the humidity of the south, i dont have underarm sweating with this.
i dont end up with white residue on my clothes

and every now and then when you buy it you get a free body spray =)

only drawback is that when the deodorant's almost gone if you arent careful you end up breaking the end off, but that happens with 'em all :/

I love the smell of this, very fresh and light. Just how I like it. I like how the bottle is inverted (roller is on the bottom of bottle), so that getting that last bit deodorant is made alot easier. Last's a good decent amount of time, and doesn't feel too sticky. Will definitely be repurchasing this as I love the scent so much.

This is the only deodorant that works for me and I have tried several over the years. I keep coming back to Dove deodorants because they have a) provided the best odor-repelling and b) keep me dry. I do have to say stay away from the original scent because the odor repelling doesn't last as well as the others. The cucumber seems to be the best for, there is also a powder one that's pretty nice too. It doesn't irritate my skin at all and I don't need to reapply often (maybe oncea day). I'm not overlly sweaty or smellly so perhaps this works best for people who don't have serious sweat or smell problems.

Decent smelling deodorant but I had to reapply often. I started smelling after only a few hours of generously applying the product.

Didn't control sweat very well. The main ingredient for this is low compared to some like Degree, for example, so it isn't the most effective item out there.

Didn't notice my underarms being any more "moisturized" than before with the 1/4 moisturizing lotion. I think that is simply a gimick.

Save your time and just get Degree.

I did like the cucumber & green tea scent as a body spray, but somehow it doesn't smell the same with the roll-on deodourant. It's still a nice clean smell, I just found this mediocre. I have used other deodourants from Dove and the Go Fresh line, I just don't think this one stood out at all.

This is all I ever use! It's the only thing that actually works for me-- although I use the spray kind not the roll on. :) Highly recommend! I always get some when I see it on special...

The only anti-perspirant that doesn't inflame my lymph nodes. Usually I don't need to use one at all, but I like to anyway. This one smells the best with my skin chemistry. The Visibly Smooth (Satin? Silk? I think it was some fabric) version smelled like elderly people with too much perfume on me.

I use this all the time. Have tried different ones, but always come back to using this one.
It has a very light, pleasant scent and is long lasting enough for me. I barely ever touch up during the day.
I don't think it smells like cucumber at all, more green tea.
I prefer the spray over the stick or roll on, but that's a general thing for me. I just feel more refreshed with a spray.
It's supposed to last 48 hours, but that's something I will probably never get to try as I shower at least once a day.
That it doesn't contain any alcohol makes it smell so soft and not strong and harsh like other deodorants.
I'm very impressed with this one.
The only thing I really don't like is that it leaves a hell of white marks on clothing if one isn't hyper careful. Since I wear a lot of black clothes that's disappointing to me. I will still use it, cause I haven't found anything better yet.

The smell is just fine to me, I think it smells the best out of all their deodorants. The only other scent I can deal with is the original. This keeps me dry and comfortable all day. My only complain is that it isn't really all that invisible. If i wear dark colors it will show up white and chalky. Otherwise I like it and I keep buying it. I've been using this for a few years now and I don't plan to change.

I actually rebought this after the first got empty. But I definitely won't be trying this again. Fitst i felt the smell was really good, but after some time using this deo, i really got tired of the smell - it's SO strong, and my perfume didn't go well with it at all.
It kept me almost dry, but still, the smell was killing me.
I think that those who really don't take on much of it may like it.

I decided this is to strong a scent for me. It gives me a headache. It also seems to over power any perfume I'm wearing.

I have the spray one of the Go Fresh - cucumer & green tea.

This does a good job and the smell is fine, nothing that I want more.

I'm on the fence about this one.When I first bought it I fell head over heels with the clean and fresh scent.I've repurchased this twice.But now the scent has really got to me it gives me tiny migranes when I smell myself.It's really concentrated.I don't really have a armpit problem so I don't know if I can comment on the strength of how long it holds up.

I don't know how may deodorant and anti-perspirant brands I have tried, in all price ranges, just to be disappointed over and over again. Almost nothing holds up to my sweaty, stinky armpits. Usually, by the end of the day, my shirts are smelling so bad that I can't wait to get out of them (TMI, perhaps).

This deodorant by Dove (the liquid version) does not work 100% but nearly. It keeps me smell and almost sweat free all day long and it isn't expensive either, so it is a win win.

There's two things that I don't like about it. The first is that the scent is rather strong for quite some time. Sweet, artificial cucumber does not go to well with my choice of scents otherwise but by lunch it has disappeared or my nose has got used to it. The second is the packaging, someone thought it smart to design the bottle so it stands upside down. Good when there's only a little left. But quite a lot drips down into the lid making it a potentially messy affair.

I’ve been trying to use a deodorant instead of an anti-perspirant for a while now, but that just hasn’t been working out very well… I HATE the slightly moist feeling in my armpits! Basically, my armpits have been screaming for aluminium, and I just had to cave in and buy an anti-perspirant. I bought the very affordable Dove Go Fresh Deo in Cucumber & Green Tea scent, which smells amazingly good. I chose roll-on, because the stick version contains silicone, which causes tiny pimples on my underarm area, and I’ve never liked to use spray deodorants. Despite being a very good anti-perspirant and smelling great, it does tend to irritate my sensitive armpit area, so I can't use it daily. And it's definitely too harsh after shaving.


I think the ingredient list might be slightly different from country to country, but here in Finland the ingredient list is as follows: Aqua, Aluminum Chlorohydrate, Glycerin, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Steareth-2, Parfum, Steareth-20, Citric Acid, Potassium Lactate, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Benzyl Alcohol, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Citronellol, Coumarin, Geraniol, Hexyl Cinnamal, Limonene, Linalool

I've worn unscented deodorants for years because the skin of my underarms is sensitive to most fragrances and because I don't want anything to clash with my perfume. This deodorant, however, is popular enough amongst my friends that I decided to give it a try when the store didn't have Dove unscented. First off, as an antiperspirant/deodorant, this works nicely - I never get stinky between showers no matter what I've been doing, and there are plenty of places in Toronto which aren't air conditioned even in August. The mall, the gym, the subway, and the boudoir are no match for this formula. Best of all, since switching to Dove deodorants I no longer feel the need to shave my pits every day (every other day now) because the formula is so moisturizing and nonirritating. The scent can be summarized as a sweeter cucumber scent, similar to BBW or Parfums de Coeur's Cucumber Melon scents - it is a clean scent, but nevertheless a bit sweet, which lasts all day but isn't overpowering. Finally, the texture/packaging: Dove deodorants are very soft, almost alarmingly so, so it's best to keep it minimally dialled up and to have your underarms as dry as possible before applying - you also have to be careful when replacing the cap, lest some product get sliced off the bullet.
