It's ok buying him some nice smelly stuff, but he needs to know why you've bought it otherwise it'll just sit on the bathroom shelf gathering dust, along with the Old Spice aftershave and that Hai Karate stuff that stinks to high heaven.
'Sure' deodorant is one of those preparations that reduces sweating. I know it's not the best smelling, but it's effective.
