Our review
An aluminium-free roll-on deodorant from Pharmaceris’ A line for sensitive skin, relying on triethyl citrate, zinc, copper and magnesium salts and prebiotic sugars rather than blocking sweat. Public opinions are very few: users praise its gentleness and lack of stains, while one found odour protection insufficient on active days.
Packaging and what the product is
The pharmaceris.com image shows a small white 50 ml roll-on bottle with a white cap and a white label with a turquoise band and the letter “A” of the brand’s line for sensitive and allergy-prone skin, next to the product name “Pharmaceris A Dezodorant Mineral-Biotic Deodorant 50 ml”. It is a leave-on underarm deodorant – not an antiperspirant – applied with a rollerball.
Ingredient analysis
Triethyl citrate, second on the list, is a well-established odour-control ingredient that interferes with the enzymatic breakdown of sweat by skin bacteria. Zinc gluconate, copper gluconate and magnesium aspartate are the “mineral” part, and the “biotic” part is prebiotic: inulin, alpha-glucan oligosaccharide and the sugars rhamnose, glucose and glucuronic acid – there are no live bacteria in the formula.
Propanediol, 1,2-hexanediol and pentylene glycol act as solvents and humectants with preservative-supporting properties, coceth-7 and PPG-1-PEG-9 lauryl glycol ether solubilise the fragrance, and aloe juice and panthenol add soothing care. Hydroxyethylcellulose, distarch phosphate, xanthan and hydrated silica adjust texture and feel; potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate preserve it.
What to watch out for
It contains no aluminium salts, so it does not reduce perspiration; people who sweat heavily may need an antiperspirant. Parfum and citronellyl methylcrotonate (a fragrance ingredient) are present, but no individually labelled EU fragrance allergens. Avoid applying to freshly broken or irritated skin.
What users say
Opinions are very scarce. Wizaż shows 4/5 from just 2 ratings, and the brand’s own page shows 5/5 from 6 ratings without visible review text (both checked 30 Oct 2026). The enthusiastic reviewer says it does not sting even after shaving, leaves no stains on clothes, has an almost neutral scent and keeps her feeling fresh all day.
The other reviewer liked the gentle formula, subtle scent and convenient roll-on, but on days with brisk walks in warm winter clothing she noticed unpleasant sweat odour, and she found it ran out quickly. With so few opinions, this is only an indication.
Who it may suit
People with sensitive underarm skin who prefer an aluminium-free deodorant and have moderate perspiration. Those who sweat a lot or need long-lasting protection during exercise may find it too light.
