You can buy it off Amazon.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?u...amp;x=0&y=0 Free shipping if you add a few more items and likely cheaper than anything you'll find in Sweden. I buy as much as I can from Amazon because their prices are always 10-15% cheaper than here. As long as you're willing to wait a week or so there shouldn't be an issue. Not sure why more Swedes don't catch on and buy from outside the country? |

I know many Swedish people who buy goods outside Sweden and have them shipped here due to lower prices. I have learned of many American websites from my Swedish friends. So, I think quite a few Swedish people do this already.

Yeah but if you're talking about American websites, anyone here who orders from them will be hammered by import tax.
Whereas with Amazon UK (as mentioned above), there will be no import tax to pay with your order, as it's from within the EU... I actually buy food, laundry liquid, and all sorts of other stuff from Amazon.co.uk. Strangely enough, I find most swedes I have met have never even heard of Amazon. Odd. |

Well I've been around town and still haven't found anything. Buying from Amazon is about 320% the price of buying in the USA so it makes more sense for me to have family mail me the deodorant in that case.
Anyone have a specific shop in Stockholm to suggest I check out? The only big place for me to check is Ahlens in city and I'll get to that but I'd love another suggestion. |

all deodorants are not antiperspirants, otherwise there would not be two different names for them, its great when know it alls are in fact worth their weight in dog doo doo when it comes to facts...
in fact, MOST swedish products are not antiperspirants at all, another symptom of the overprotective swedish government. the aluminum has been found to cause alzheimer's disease. you can buy from the usa as long as the total is under 20 bucks, no taxes. |

Antiperspirants work by clogging, closing, or blocking the pores with powerful astringents such as aluminum salts so that they can’t release sweat. Deodorants work by neutralizing the smell of the sweat and by antiseptic action against bacteria. Deodorants are preferable because they don’t interfere with sweating, a natural cooling process.
