Deodorant vs. Anti-Perspirant: What is the difference?

Although often confused for the same product, deodorants and antiperspirants are not interchangeable, and actually provide completely different kinds of underarm protection

It's not your sweat that smells!

Surprisingly enough… Your sweat doesn’t actually smell, it’s odourless, but the smell occurs when the sweat meets the bacteria on your skin. The parts of your body that do produce an odor when sweating, have two things in common: more bacteria growth and apocrine glands.
 
Deodorant controls the odour created when we sweat, but doesn’t inhibit sweating. It works by killing the bacteria on the surface of the skin, which helps to prevent an odour from forming in the armpit, but doesn’t unnecessarily block the sweat glands
 
Antiperspirant uses predominantly aluminium salts to blocks sweat glands, reducing the amount of perspiration your body produces
