What metrics are deoderant companies using to calculate their "72hr protection" numbers? - eviltoast

How do these companies come to that conclusion? I think most people start to smell after only 24 or 48 hours max so how do these companies get 72 hours out of their testing?

Im assuming they’re fudging their numbers but at what point does it become false advertisement?

    i’m very convinced it makes you stink worse than it otherwise would when it expires.

      Not at all, now I shower only one time a day with no deo, and if I feel my armpit is swaety i just rinse it with plain water until I shower. No funcky smell at all. Even sex sweat is not funky anymore.
