I spent a lot of time in the middle east, so I'm going to say: Deodorant, not more perfume. Please.

Even better: an antiperspirant. It significantly lowers sweat production on the applied area.

Even better: wash yourself regularly and avoid synthetic fabric.

i'm very hesitant about this, we sweat for a reason.

I'd rather just get rid of the smell and deal with sweaty armpits, rather than risk overheating.

You mean anti-transpirant? Deodorant is often just perfume.

I will take BO over perfume all day everyday
