Dove Men+Care Extra Fresh Antiperspirant Stick
Works well. Keeps wetness at bay a lot compared to the deodorants, but still only works around 24 hours, which is better than most I've used. The fragrance is strong, masculine and fresh, so better if you don't wear added scent with it.

Dove Men+Care Elements Mineral Powder+Sandalwood Deodorant Stick
I didn't like it. As effective as the other Dove Deodorants I've tried and I've tried a lot over time as I buy a different fragrance each time, but I was not a fan of the scent of this one. My wife liked the scent, but I found it to be too strong... +

My wife liked the scent, but I found it to be too strong and woodsy for my liking. Protects around 20 hrs, I prefer the Sage to this.

Protects from smells for about 24 hours, but doesn't do as good a job with wetness as an anti-perspirant (to be expected). If I had to buy a deodorant I'd go with this one, as I really enjoyed it, but sometimes I prefer better wetness protection.

This works really well at keeping the wetness at bay, but only really protects against smell for around 24 hours if you sweat a lot. I really like it anyway, as it's superior to others I've tried.
This is probably my fave scent in the range as it is quite faint and not overpowering, so I can easily wear my own spray along with it. Masculine smelling and nice.

Only lasts around 24 hours for me on a good day (I work hard and sweat a lot). It's much better than many standard deodorants though.
It has a very strong masculine scent that reminds me of aftershave, my wife likes it, but finds it a bit overwhelming so I wouldn't recommend wearing it at the same time as cologne or body spray. Easy to apply format.

Dove Men+Care Clean Comfort Deodorant Stick
My one complaint about these is they never quite last 48 hours, at least not if you are a sweaty, hardworking person. For me, it is good for around 24 hours, but still very good. Has a lovely fresh scent that isn't too strong and my wife likes it.

As someone who often has dandruff in their hair, I was unsure of whether or not this Head and Shoulders shampoo would really have much of an impact. A lot of the anti-dandruff shampoos you find on store shelves have had mixed results for me, so I was very pleasantly surprised to find that this shampoo did an amazing job of getting rid of my dandruff! When you have severe dandruff it can often be a legit medical issue, so not all the 'dandruff' shampoos have an effect, but this one worked a treat.
The shampoo itself comes in quite a large bottle, and goes a long way because you don’t need much of the shampoo to lather up a full head of hair. The shampoo is quite thick, and being a two-in-one shampoo and conditioner it both lathers up very easily and feels good to rub into your scalp. Leave it in for a few minutes and then rinse it out again, and you’ll find that your hair and scalp will feel amazing. It rinsed out of my hair without leaving any residue or oily feelings behind, which is very important for these two-in-one products.
After a few washes with this shampoo, not only did my hair feel much thicker and fuller, it also reduced my dandruff to the point where it was practically gone completely. I’m very impressed with how quickly I noticed a big difference, even just one wash left me feeling like my dandruff was greatly reduced. It has that 'classic' Head and Shoulders smell, fresh and not terrible like more medicated shampoos.
In summary, this is a great two-in-one shampoo and conditioner that does wonders on dandruff or dry scalps.

When it comes to taming incredibly dry, bristly facial hair, I didn't find this did an amazing job, but I found the moisturising qualities to be very effective! After a few days of using, the hair is much softer and personally, I liked that it's only natural ingredients and is vegan and cruelty-free. I found it best to apply only a small amount and then use a wax if more shaping was wanted, but for days when I wasn't styling the beard at all, I liked to use this just to keep the hair more soft and manageable.
The scent isn't strong on this at all (for me that's a good thing) and is a faint, slightly citrusy scent that won't offend most people.

The idea of a shampoo that comes with some sort of 'styling technology' is a little off-putting to me. What does that even mean? I have no idea. It feels like it might have a small amount of styling product in it, but for me, I didn't enjoy it. I have my own styling products I like to use and want my hair to be totally clean when I get out of the shower, with nothing in it. After using this, it felt a little crunchier and stiffer, but not enough to really control or style my hair, I prefer to use my own products.
I still think this has a place on the market though. Axe's target range of Teenage Boys will probably enjoy this as it's best for someone who wants a small bit of hold and would just prefer to shower and go, eliminating the extra style step of added pomade or gel. Scent-wise, it's a nice, predictably Axe scent that is almost like a spicy aftershave style vanilla. I like the smell, but it might be too strong for some. Again, teenage boys will love it.
