Quite frequently there is more than one brand of anti perspirant / deodorant in my medicine cabinet. Right now a container of Axe Dry Kilo anti-perspirant / deodorant and a container of Mitchum Smart Solid Clinical Performance anti-perspirant / deodorant are situated there.
On a regular basis recently I have been alternating the use of both products and I think that a comparison of the two products would be beneficial to the consumer at large.
Presented here is an article which compares Mitchum Smart Solid Clinical Performance anti-perspirant and deodorant and Axe Dry Kilo anti-perspirant / deodorant.
Size
The net weight of the standard sized container of Axe Dry Kilo anti-perspirant is 2.7 ounces. In physical size the container measures approximately 5.75″ x 2.50″.
The net weight of the standard-sized container of Mitchum Smart Solid Clinical Performance anti-perspirant and deodorant is 2.5 ounces. The physical measurements of this container are 5.25″ x 2″. .
Scent
Both of these anti-perspirant / deodorants offer strong and fairly bracing scents. As with the other Axe anti-perspirant / deodorants I’ve used, the Kilo Dry variety features a strong and clean scent that reminds me of a good deodorant soap.
The scent offered by the Mitchum Smart Solid Clinical Performance stick seems more potent and antiseptic yet pleasant to me.
Price
The regular retail price charged for one 2.7 ounce container of Axe Dry Kilo anti-perspirant / deodorant at Hartford, Connecticut area pharmacies and supermarkets is roughly $4.99.
The regular retail price charged for one 2.5 ounce container of Mitchum Smart Solid Clinical Performance anti-perspirant / deodorant is also approximately $4.99.
Effectiveness
When it comes to the effectiveness of each of these anti-perspirant-deodorants at keeping me dry I would have to say that the Axe Dry Kilo anti-perspirant-deodorant is just slightly more effective.
That’s not to say that the Mitchum Smart Solid is not effective. Under most conditions and in most situations the Mitchum anti perspirant-deodorant works very well at stopping wetness and preventing odor. Like most other anti / perspirant-deodorants however, when it was very hot and humid it did not deliver 100% protection. I would rate it at 90% in those circumstances. This Mitchum stick is much more effective than most other brands I have tried.
To be honest, the Axe Dry Kilo like every other Axe anti-perspirant I have tried offers top-rate protection against wetness and odor. More than any other brand of anti-perspirant / deodorant that I have previously used, Axe anti-perspirant / deodorants consistently offers real, total protection. This is the third type of Axe anti perspirant-deodorant I have used and each one has worked exceptionally well. Axe offers several different types of anti perspirant-deodorants and I would like to try each one.
Packaging
Mitchum Smart Solid Clinical Performance anti-perspirant and deodorant is packaged in a thin plastic body with a silver, green and white front label. The applicator is propelled by a small wheel in the bottom center of the body, which measures 5.25″ x 2″.
Axe Dry Kilo anti-perspirant / deodorant is packaged in a very stylish, rounded jet black plastic body that measures 5.75″ x 2.5″. The applicator is driven by the large revolving base of the body.
Overall Rating
All things considered, Mitchum Smart Solid Clinical Performance anti-perspirant and deodorant and Axe Dry Kilo anti-perspirant / deodorant are very effective products. While I’m somewhat of a regular user of Axe anti-perspirant / deodorants I am also now a big believer in Mitchum products.
Both of these anti-perspirant / deodorants provide long-lasting, good-smelling protection from wetness and odor. Although I am already a big fan of Axe products I am also quite satisfied with the Mitchum product which I bought because it was on sale. Each of these anti-perspirant / deodorants is recommended.
