We all have the same five types of bacteria responsible for body odor. The difference is population density. Théorique controls all five, anywhere on your body.
Causes malodor in underarms, genital area (both men and women), and general body odor.
Responsible for underarm odor.
Creates odor in underarms and feet.
Causes malodor in underarms and feet.
Responsible for odor in the female genital area.
After two years of testing natural deodorants that failed me during workouts, I started looking at the science.
Most natural brands use baking soda because it's cheap. Not because it works without irritation.
Essential oils mask odor. They don't eliminate it.
We found what actually works: Silver and zinc oxide stop the bacteria that cause odor. Zinc ricinoleate catches any smell before it escapes. Simple ingredients that do their job.
Then we tested our formulations. In real heat. During real workouts. With people who have sensitive skin.
It took 47 formulations to get it right, and we keep refining it.

Every ingredient has one job: keeping you fresh without irritation.
No fillers. No marketing tricks. Just ingredients that work.
Silver + Zinc Oxide
Dual antibacterial system. Silver and zinc oxide work together to stop odor-causing bacteria. Non-nano particles stay on skin surface.
Zinc Ricinoleate
Traps and neutralizes odor molecules before they escape. Second line of defense.
Apply to clean, dry skin. This is critical. Wet or damp skin prevents proper absorption.
Start with a pea-sized amount per underarm. Spread evenly across the entire area, then massage in circular motions until barely visible.
The 40g jar lasts about 3 months with daily use. Most people use less than with other natural deodorants because the formula is more concentrated.
Finding Your Amount
Everyone's bacteria density is different. If you're not getting 24-hour coverage, increase the amount slightly. Most people dial in their ideal serving size within 3-5 uses.
Natural antibacterial agent. Reduces odor-causing bacteria at the source. Non-nano particles stay on skin surface and never penetrate.
Odor absorber and neutralizer. Traps smell molecules before they escape. Works continuously all day without reapplication.
Antibacterial and skin protector. Works alongside silver to control bacteria. Helps prevent irritation and calms sensitive skin.
Base oil that mimics your natural skin oils. Glides on smoothly without feeling greasy. Nourishes and softens skin.
Rich moisturizer. Protects and nourishes skin. Especially beneficial for sensitive underarms.
Natural thickener. Gives structure so the formula stays where you apply it. Helps product glide smoothly.
Gives a smooth, soft finish without harsh chemicals. It doesn't stop sweat.
Natural antioxidant that keeps the formula fresh. Also nourishes and protects skin.
A light, coconut-derived oil that helps the cream spread without feeling greasy.
Made from citric acid. It keeps the cream smooth and evenly blended.
A waxy fatty alcohol, not the drying kind, that gives the cream its firm body.
A fine mineral powder that helps the cream glide on and feel smooth.
We know it works. But everyone's body is different.
