The verdict

What the panel makes of it.

Schmidt's Charcoal + Magnesium delivers reliable odor control and applies smoothly, but buyers warn that gray staining on clothing is a frequent problem that can damage garments. The 4.3/5 rating from over 3,000 owners reflects strong performance offset by this significant drawback for those concerned about fabric damage.

I bought this two weeks ago, and instantly loved it. It works, all day, no itchy pits, no overwhelming port-a-john scent... it was like the holy grail of deodorants. Until. Until I pulled my favorite light green shirt out of the laundry, and holy mother of pit stains, it was RUINED! It had big gray stains in both pits after only a single wearing with this deodorant.
