The active ingredients are actually different. The activite ingredient for Secret clinical is TRICHLOROHYDREX and the Mitchum ingredient is TERACHLOROHYDREX. I just thought I’d point that out, although these two ingredients probably don’t differ much.

Ktray, that is one of the best comments ever. You’re such a knowledgeable consumer.

Certain Dri is the only true, clinical strength antiperspirant. It is so strong, that you are not supposed to use it after you get out of the shower or shave your pits (gentlemen), otherwise you will RASH UP. That is how strong it is.

And by the way, have you ever accidentally gotten antiperspirant on your tongue? You can forget about tasting anything for a day.

Well, the fact is that Mitchum has a lot more active ingredient than both of the brands you refer to, Jose.

Yes it does cost more, but it also comes in a nifty Smart Solid variation which is the best of both worlds. No residue and no wet gel.

I actually don’t use Mitchum or clinical strength. Nor do I drink any of the Miller beers. I agree that consumers can be huge suckers, but I also think Mitchum is part of that scam. It might not be as expensive as Secret Clinical Strength, but it IS more expensive than other deodorants, and for me, has never worked as well as Right Guard or Gillette. And it must be clear gel, otherwise fuck it. Speed Stick has always sucked.

Well I love both Mitchum and Miller Lite what do I win?

It is funny how so many people neglect to do these basic comparisons for common products.
