Amazing deodrant! The scent is lovely and keeps you fresh all day long! I wear it everyday for any activity and I always feel protected.

It comes in a variety of scents and the packaging is cute! Such a good buy! If you suffer from sweating, this is the product for you! COmbined smell and intense protection!

I switched from the expensive $10 secret clinical strength to this because of the price. I sweat a lot in the summer and want to smell good. This stuff smells awesome and continues to smell amazing throughout the day. I have been outside all day and its now 5pm and I still smell like vanilla. It is not overpowering though, its just a hint - love it!

I wanted to love this but it broke me out......but I LOVE the secret gel so it's not just this brand because all solid deodorants break me out. Over all the scent is amazing!

I was dissapointed in this product. First of all, I just realized this was supposed to be "invisible"? HA! Ummm no....this leaves white streaks everywhere. Nothing about it is even remotely invisible at all. Second is the fragrance, the fragrance of this is annoying. It's not vanilla at all. LIke there is no hint of vanilla in this product whatsoever. It smells like artificial fruity-ness. Like Smackers fruity lip balm fruity. The scent is really a let down. It doesn't even smell like vanilla in the tube so it's not my body chemisty either. I dont think this holds up as well as other deodarants either. I dont sweat a lot anyway....but still...it's just a little less than mehh

This is the worst deodorant I've ever used! Smells really nasty and never stopped me from sweating, I was actually not expecting it to but it could have at least masked the odor which it did not. Leaves white marks on everything I wear, does not do anything and smells terrible. Do not buy ever!

This antiperspirant is seriously really really good. I've suffered from excessive underarm sweating for some time now, & it's super annoying when it shows through my tops. I have to avoid short sleeves and light coloured clothing. i've tried certain dri, which not only did not stop my sweating, it made my armpits extremely itchy. I've tried rexona clinical protection, which was completely useless in terms of scent and anti-perspiration effectiveness. I've also tried many many others that are supposed to relieve sweating. secret invisible solid smells awesome, and stops my sweating!! I become slightly wet only when i work out. This is my HG deo. It doesn't show through my clothes! And Blair Fowler the youtube guru agrees with me!! Looking forward to trying the other scents!!

The secret scent expressions "Invisible Solid" is far better then any of the gels. It really keeps you dry and fresh smelling. You can even skip a day if you need to. Works better then any other deodorant I have tried.

I don't get a vanilla scent from this--it's straight up fruity chemicals on me. I only bust it out when I know I'll be sweating buckets, like at the gym or in a heatwave, otherwise I prefer aluminum-free products.

This is so far the best deodorant/antiperspirant I have found. For reference I don't consider myself a sweaty person, or at least in terms of odour. But I do perspire a lot lately due to a medication I take. I have tried the clinical version which is actually worse then this one in terms of perspiring. I am not impressed or disappointed here. However, I do like it;s packaging, scent which I did not find too strong at all, and cheap price tag of course. For now until I find better; will repurchase.

i always used 'clean' scents before i discovered this on my roommate. he (yes, he) smelled so good i asked what he was wearing and he said it was this deoderant. i LOVE the smell of this stuff but its not strong enough for me and the cap always comes off in my purse :( i wish they would make this scent in their body sprays

Va Va indeed! I've been wanting to try this Scent Expressions version of Secret for awhile now. When I finally found some, it was in a double pack. Kind of annoying when you're planning on testing it out, but now I'm glad, because this is HG stuff. I'm a longtime fan of Secret. Their formulations have always worked great for me, with excellent wetness protection and scents that last. This one was no different in that regard. The invisible solid glides on softer than ever. What really sold me on this one though is the scent. I'd describe it as a fresh vanilla scent. It was just so-so at first whiff on the dispenser, but when I put it on it responded to my body chemistry really, really well. Mileage will vary, but I have been hit on more times in the past week than in any other week in recent memory. It's got to be the deodorant. I haven't been doing anything else differently. Men really do like vanilla, don't they? Please, Secret, don't ever DC this scent.

So this is BY FAR my favorite deodorant. Out of all the deodorants I've used this one works the best. I have tried the gel kind, I like both but I don't like the feeling of gel at the start so it's quite annoying. The scent of it is very strongly vanilla. My boyfriend loves the smell and hasn't liked anything else as much. I recently tried another brand and smell of deodorant but it didn't slow sweating down at all. This Secret deodorant doesn't smell like deodorant which is why I love it. The only reason I didn't give it a five is because it does leave some residue but I've only had it do it badly on a few shirts. The packaging is cute and you get so much product for how cheap it is. So overall, the smell: AMAZING; as slowing sweating: Best I've ever used (and i've used a lot) even if u do sweat you can't smell the sweat; residue: like I said some but not bad compared to other popular brands. I don't have any transfer on most shirts that are cotton or of similar material. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this deodorant.

once I ran out of my Secret Scent Expressions Crystal-Clear *Gel* anti-perspirant in Va Va Vanilla, and the store only had the *Solid* version, so I bought it thinking it would be good as well. I was so wrong! It did nothing to stop my sweating, whereas the gel version actually seem to stop my sweating and not just mask the smell. Do yourself a favour and get the gel version instead of this one.

This review is for the same product, but the coco butter kiss scent. Smell is great, product is meh. First of all, HOW CAN THEY CALL THIS INVISIBLE WITH A CLEAN CONSCIENCE?? Leaves white marks on EVERYTHING. And I only put a light layer on. The product does keep sweat at bay, but nothing out of the ordinary. I much prefer Mitchem but I've been using it for so long, I needed to switch to something else bc my body was getting used to it. At least that stuff is truly clear.

This smells quite pleasant, like artificial vanilla.
The scent complements my favourite vanilla perfume, but is strong enough to be smelled on it's own without perfume.
But, I find it to be more of a deoderant than an antipersperant. It doesn't stop my sweating, and my pits do turn quite wet on hot days.

I generally love vanilla scents, so I thought I'd venture out of my basic Mitchum territory and try out a vanilla-scented antiperspirant. While this seems to work just fine as an antiperspirant (except for in extreme heat, when there's no choice for me but to go back to the unscented men's Mitchum roll-on) as a deodorant it just doesn't work. Perhaps a deodorant just shouldn't smell like cupcakes - one just never smells fresh, just sweet. So this ends up smelling awkward instead of good. I'll buy Scent Expressions again, but in something more shower clean or floral.

Maybe I sweat too much, but the sickly sweet scent of this deodorant wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't so noticeable all the time. I guess if you love this smell that'd be a good thing, but I don't. I've switched to Dove ultimate clear go fresh, and the scent is more clean and subtle-I would have to stick my nose in my armpit to actually pick up on it. I won't be buying this again.

I started out liking this deodorant because it made my pits smell like vanilla ice cream. After a couple of weeks of use, I'm not liking it anymore. I feel like it doesn't mask odour entirely, and vanilla ice cream with a hint of BO is really not pleasant. This turned so bad on me, in fact, that I used my boyfriend's deo for a couple of days rather than have to use it. I do appreciate that it doesn't irritate my freshly-shaved underarms. I absolutely adore the sparkly holo packaging and iridescent plastic inner rim. It is slightly more expensive than my usual Dove @ Price Chopper.
