Rio Deo Aluminum-Free Deodorant Refill Cartridge

I love this deodorant refill — it’s quickly become my go-to for everyday confidence. From the moment I apply it, I get long-lasting freshness without any of the usual irritation I’ve dealt with from aluminum products. The formula feels lightweight on the skin yet genuinely keeps odor at bay throughout my day, even when I’m on the move. The scent is so good — that signature Sol de Janeiro vibe: warm, sweet, and just a little tropical without ever being overpowering. It’s feminine and fun, but still classy enough for everyday wear. I also appreciate that it’s aluminum-free — gentle on my underarms, which is a must for me. The refill cartridge fits seamlessly into the reusable container, which makes the switch super easy and feels like a small win for sustainability. Pros: ✔️ Great odor protection without aluminum ✔️ Lightweight and gentle on skin ✔️ Addictive, pleasant scent ✔️ Easy refill system Cons: • Price point is a bit premium — but honestly, worth it if you love a good scent and feel fresh all day. Overall: Highly recommend it if you want a luxe aluminum-free deodorant that actually works. I’ll definitely be repurchasing!

I have repurchased this item multiple times and I love how creamy the deodorant appears and it takes forever to let your body odor smell push past the deodorants it doesn’t irritate my skin AT ALL! I love how small it is so that I can plop it in my bag. The formula is to lovely and it stick right to your skin. The packaging is very sturdy and it is so hard to damage your deodorant. I have personally found that it resists my sweat naturally. I do think that the price is accurate for how long it lasts. I have had mine for over a year and have only had to refill twice!! It lasts a little over 6 months for me personally.

Love these!!! Fragrance is excellent and stays all day keeping you feeling and smelling fresh. Easy to apply and effective. Design is user friendly and natural ingredients is a plus.

After my trusty natural deodorant let me down, I embarked on a quest for a clean alternative that truly delivers. Let me tell you, I hit the jackpot with this deodorant! First off, the scent is absolutely divine—fresh, invigorating, and perfect for everyday wear. I live in the desert, where summer temperatures soar to a sweltering 114°F and beyond, yet this deodorant has held up beautifully, keeping me feeling fresh and confident even in the triple digits. One of my biggest concerns with deodorants is staining my clothes or leaving an oily residue. This one checks all the boxes! No stains, no greasy feel—just smooth, comfortable wear throughout the day. Plus, it’s eco-friendly with a refill option, which I absolutely love! Yes, it might be on the pricier side, but the effectiveness and the amazing scent make it worth every penny. If you’re on the hunt for a deodorant that combines clean ingredients with performance, look no further. This is your solution for a stay-fresh, all-day confidence boost. 💖 Try it out and see the difference for yourself!

When I say I’ve tried 95% of the natural deodorants available out there, I really mean it. Name a brand and I can tell you what was wrong with it. Whether it was the dreaded onion effect or terrible rashes or grease stains or smelling like a middle school boys’ locker room, there have been many deodorants leaving me wondering if it’s just worth the risk to go back to my old beloved Secret Clinical Strength aluminum deodorant. My mom had early-onset Alzheimer’s so I’ve stayed away from aluminum in all forms as best I can since 2017. I’ve purchased homemade versions and I’ve gotten charcoal paste stuck underneath my fingernails in an effort to find something that A) smells good, B) keeps smelling good with time and sweat, C) doesn’t saturate my shirts with oil, D) doesn’t stain my clothes, and E) reduces sweat. To be honest, the best thing I have ever found, albeit unscented, was a salt crystal I got as a gift that lasted like 3 years! After a week or so there was just plain no smell. When it got too small (and sharp!) to use effectively, I decided that I wanted something that smells good. That was about 3 years ago — I was back at it yet again, trying all the more natural deodorants (because there’s a new one released like every month)…UNTIL A FRIEND GAVE ME RIO DEO. I was skeptical because “ew” has been my natural experience, but I was elated to find out that IT DOES ALL THE THINGS!!! 🎉 It doesn’t take a lot, which I appreciate since the price point is higher than I would typically spend on deodorant. My initial experience has rang true for over a year, and I’ve since tried every scent — they’re all wonderful, but yellow is my fav, then pink, then the orange/red. I’m giving it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 stars ONLY because Amazon is inconsistent with the delivery. I’ve had one melt into a puddle and they replaced it, but it was a (literal) hot mess. You can’t leave it in the heat, especially in the Texas summer (the front porch smelled great for a while though)! I’ve also had a couple of refills that were chunky, as others have described (see pic for my most recent one). If you like the smell, they have lots of stuff with the same scents, and the smell sticks around (I know this because my daughter uses the mist/spray). It’s a great product! I haven’t found anywhere I can buy it in a store (especially during the summer), so I’ll just stick with my Amazon auto ships!

My daughter kept getting rashes but it all cleared up with we switch to aluminum free. Great smell and great safe product.

Smells amazing and works well on sweaty days. This smell is so intoxicating and is the only “perfume” I need to wear because the scent is strong enough (but not too much). Update: I absolutely love the smell of 40 and thought I’d try another scent, to see if they’re all as good as people say. I ordered 68 and WOULD NOT recommend! I think it smells a little like cat piss and something funky: a little like foul, moldy clothes. The few times I’ve attempted to wear it, I found myself sniffing my clothes, absentmindedly trying to find the bad smell. I’m just going to throw it away.
