i tell you, use perfume instead of deodorant: if you use deodorant, you have a nice pleasant fragrance, but you are expose that you hardly did everything just to get the right smell, everybody will think you came from a war or something then use deodorant to hide everything! try using perfume, it must be use in the right time and very attractive.
both are good, but perfume is what i suggest you use, thrust me, it happens to me all the time here in the philippines, believe me, we are very strict about it same for women!!!
goo luck on your choice...

Neither!
Many workplaces have people with allergies or chemical sensitivities...
Many hospitals have signs posted not to come in if you are wearing perfume.
Deodorants and antiperspirants aren't that healthy for people anyhow...
I would highly recommend using a crystal deodorant... it's a natural salt type crystal (there are roll-ons and sprays available too) that you wet and apply... the salt kills the odour causing bacteria....provided that you apply to freshly bathed skin... it won't work on already stinky pits.

The crystal is very cost effective... used daily, it can last years! (think how much money is spent on stick products)
It's environmentally friendly.
Most people won't have a skin reaction to it.
It's odourless... apply your own preferred scent.
As far as perfume goes... please choose something soft and natural...as a moisturizer or something from let's say the body shop..

If u want to use deodarant, u have to search for lonely place to apply it. U cant apply it in crowd. Perfume u can use any where & can apply in public places...
Deodrant will give smell only to u, but not to others. If u use perfumes, It spreads smell to others,but use light essenced perfumes..

BOTH. No amount of perfume can mask body odor. In fact it makes it worse because it ends up drawing more attention to the person.
If you really just have to choose one, use a deodorant.

Ykes wear deodorant. At work people do not like people wearing perfume. Many jobs I have had have required us not to use it because it offends people. Always wear deodorant if you are in the USA. Europe is different but in the usa we do not like stinky people.

use both. deodorant prevents BO and perfume makes you smell nice. however, use a light scented perfume, something citrusy or floral, you don't want to offend colleagues with a heavy scent. if u have to choose between deo or perfume, then choose deo.

Deodorant is for under your arms and perfume you can put all over you.... So use both.

they are two different things. use deoderant! perfume or cologne is optional after that. i understand some countries don't even have deoderant or even tp, i don't know how they survive.
