Maybe it is the best deodorant in the world, but can you get it here?

I used to SWEAR by Mitchum, until I discovered Dove Maximum Protection Antiperspirant Cream. It's just as good and the cream is really easy to use. I think it's called Dove Clinical Protection Cream in America. I'm not in Doha yet, so I don't know if you can buy it out there, but it's worth looking out for. In England it comes in a cardboard box. There is a Sure equivalent which is basically identical (same ingredients, same packaging, made by same company) but with a stronger and less feminine scent. Mind you, when I was out in Doha in November I had to make an emergency deodorant purchase and picked up a fairly normal looking Dove stick. As it turned out, it was super strong, despite not being branded as such and when I got it home, I discovered it had the same ingredients as the stuff which is marketed in England as being super strength! It worked really well for me, I was amazed.

carathop - I saw it on the shelves in Boots. Can't remember exactly where, but it's not a HUGE shop so you should be able to find it! Not sure if it was in the pharmacy end of things, or in with the other standard deos. And it was in the Villaggio store.

Do you have spinneys in Qatar? If you ever come to Dubai you can buy it in spinneys. I go to the one in the marina.

Also try Driclor available from Boots. It's super-strong and REALLY works. Much better than Mitchum.

I discovered the "medical strength" (????) deodorants this summer - they seem to have just come out in the past year. It's not called "medical strength" exactly but it has some sort of similar name (sorry!). Anyway, I found the Dove brand at MegaMart. It's a bit steep at ~QR30 but it &lt;i&gt;works&lt;/i&gt;. There are other brands in the U.S. (and maybe here?) but I just saw the Dove brand and grabbed it. The Mitchum, though it works, ultimately makes my armpits swell up due to whatever is in it - so I don't know if it's available here or not.

Mitchum is the best! I use the gel deodorant but I've never seen it here -and I've searched everywhere! Now I just get DH to buy them whenever he's in Dubai.
