The difference between an antiperspirant and a deodorant?
Deodorants prevent the formation of the odour causing bacteria and cover the smell. They only take effect for a very limited space of time, however, as they do not fight the actual problem - the formation of sweat - at its root.
Antiperspirants on the other hand narrow the perspiratory glands and thus prevent the secretion of sweat.
