Tabac deo stick works well for me unless it's really hot and humid, as it is here in Germany at the moment.
After reading a few of the replies here I think I'll try an alum stick to see if that's better.

I used to use the original version of this when I was a teenager in School, some 23+ years ago. It was terrible, as the gel just sealed off your armpits. As soon as you started to sweat, in particular on the sports field, it was like a seal broke, and the sweat all poured out at once. Terrible stuff. I hope they've improved it A LOT since then.

I have used it in the past few years and IMHO it was superb for 48 hrs. and I live in a brutally hot/humid area. I also used the Right Guard 96 hr. gel, but I could only get it to go 72 hrs. here due to the punishing climate.
 
I recommended it because it's nuclear stuff. It will make a homeless bum smell nice without bathing at all. The worst thing you can do when you are sweaty and in a pinch is to rub/spray deodorant over your sweat. Not this thing. Just annihilates smells and sweat. + I never had irritation or pores clogging from it like with most deos (the soap consistency ones are the worst).

I'm far from the hormonal metabolism of a teenager and I don't have an active lifestyle like some do, but I can vouch for this deo that it won't disappoint when you least need it to.

Alum does nothing for me, sadly.

This is an antiperspirant. A bit different than a deodorant.

Excerpt from drugbank.ca:

"Aluminum zirconium octachlorohydrex gly
Accession Number
DB11200
Type
Small Molecule
Groups
Approved
Description
Aluminum zirconium octachlorohydrex gly is complex that consists of aluminum zirconium octachlorohydrate and glycine. It is an active antiperspirant agent [8], [9]. It diffuses into the sweat pores and prevents perspiration (sweat) from leaving the pores. The anhydrous form of the compound also has water-absorbing properties. Currently, the FDA allows the inclusion of this substance in concentrations of up to 20% in antiperspirants [11].

Interestingly, this chemical has been studied in relation to its possible impact on the microbiome of the human underarms [2]."
