Product Reviews by Experts
Truly one of the best smelling natural deodorants I’ve come across. The smoked cedar scent is distinctive and masculine without being overwhelming, and it layers really well with fragrance. It applies cleanly, does the job without any of the usual natural deodorant compromises, and the branding feels confident. I look forward to putting it on in the mornings. Two Dudes holding the Movember fundraising record is a remarkable achievement for a product brand. What impresses me most is that men’s health isn’t just a marketing angle for them, it’s embedded into how they operate, where their profits go, and the conversations they’re actively trying to normalise. That kind of purpose-driven positioning is exactly what the personal care space needs more of.
It’s hard to make a good natural deodorant not feel and smell super “natural” to the extent that we need to pretend that integrating it competes with the normie types, but I find myself not needing to fake it with this one. I don’t wear deodorant, and don’t get complaints about it, but sometimes when I’m needing to put shoes on and go to an event I do like the idea of dressing my pits as well as my feet. And I found myself reaching for the cedar Two Dudes, which is a tick in my book. And afterwards, where I normally get annoyed at still smelling like coconut when using natural pit application I liked the subtle smell of the cedar. I can’t stand when a company’s charitable efforts are a side quest of the founder and not a direct extension of the product itself, and Two Dudes is an example of keeping the contribution tightly tied with the product target market, to the extent where the intention behind the product and therefore what it means to consume it takes on a deeper meaning. Love how much intent is behind creating impact in men’s health.
When using Two Dudes Smoked Cedar deodorant, I first noticed the subtle, earthy tones which were pleasant. The stick itself wasn’t too greasy like many other brands I have come across. It’s nice to see brands like Two Dudes donating 10% of their profits towards men’s health and actively engaging in Movember fundraising. Keep up the energy guys!
