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 had to think it up a little earlier since I was talking about this an hour before I saw this post or so with someone else and didn’t want to keep repeating less polite terms.

    It’s upsetting in its own way though, isn’t it?
