As much as we often try to avoid it, sweat and body odor happen. The question then becomes: How can we effectively manage it and avoid smelling nasty in public while also keeping potentially harmful ingredients off our skin? The team at OffCourt insists that they have the solution that checks all the boxes and keeps that pesky body odor in check.
I've recently had the opportunity of trying OffCourt's newest collection of body sprays on my own body. The three body sprays come in different scents that all smell great from the can. Below, I'll explain how well they actually smell on my body, whether I get any complaints about how my body smells when I'm using these sprays, and what else you can expect should you try OffCourt's body sprays on your own body.
According to OffCourt, "We create fuel for post-sweat skin. It's not that complicated: We make premium products for active men who sweat and shower frequently." OffCourt currently offers Performance Body Spray in four scents, plus they have bar soap and a facial hydrator available, and they're working on additional skincare and grooming products that they plan on releasing soon.
Today, we're focusing on OffCourt's signature Performance Body Sprays. They claim these body sprays work much better than the stick deodorants that so many of us use most often, and they claim these body sprays offer premium cologne scents and top-notch odor control at unbeatable prices. We put those claims to the test.
After you bathe or shower, spray some OffCourt under your arms and wherever else you tend to produce body odor. They're designed as body sprays that allow the body to "sweat like normal" without releasing a torrent of unpleasant body odor. They're also developed to function as deodorant and "light cologne that goes wherever you go".
OffCourt currently offers four scents of Performance Body Spray: Fig Leaves + White Musk, Fresh Citron + Driftwood, Coconut Water + Sandalwood, as well as a limited edition Citrus + Suede scent that's a collaboration with the Dogpound gym. Each scent can be purchased separately, plus OffCourt offers a three-pack bundle of Fig Leaves + White Musk, Fresh Citron + Driftwood, and Coconut Water + Sandalwood. Today, we're reviewing the three scents that come in the bundle.
If you're curious about what these products are and what's in them, here are all the critical details:
While all these body sprays are safe for human use, they are flammable, so please don't use them on your eyes, puncture the spray cans, or store them at temperatures above 120 degrees Fahrenheit or 48 degrees Celsius.
Orders over $25 get shipping at no extra cost. Due to the nature of these products, they can't offer refunds, but they will offer replacements if your products arrive damaged and/or if you receive the wrong items.
In case you have more questions, we have some more answers.
Again, I did feel some stinging sensation within the first minute of spraying some onto my body. The sting was especially noticeable in areas where I had recently shaved. Yet after that first minute, the sting was gone. For the rest of the day, I felt great and had no complaints.
From everything I've seen and felt, my answer is: Yes. They don't use parabens, sulfates, phthalates, or hundreds of other ingredients that are banned in places like the European Union (EU) with stricter consumer safety laws than the U.S. They also use an environmentally friendly propellant and VOC-free (as in, no volatile organic compounds) in their body sprays.
OffCourt formulates and manufactures all their products in the U.S.
No! They're verified as 100 percent cruelty-free.
The aluminum they use for body sprays is fully recyclable - you just need to remove the plastic cap and the plastic actuator. In addition, the mailers they use are made from fully recyclable paper.
Again, they can not offer refunds for body sprays. But if any of the body sprays you ordered arrive damaged, or if the specific body sprays you ordered are not the items that show up, contact them and they will provide a proper replacement.
Short Answer: Probably, yes.
Long Answer: Unless you have very sensitive skin that requires very gentle deodorants with minimal or zero fragrance, you will probably like what OffCourt has to offer.
OffCourt Performance Body Sprays work quite well in preventing the accumulation of unpleasant body odor without suppressing the perspiration that our bodies need to release. They even have fragrances that work well in nearly every outdoor or indoor setting, yet these body sprays cost much less than comparable products that you find in upscale boutiques and department stores.
