No it doesn't Lionel.

As an aside. I was on vacation two weeks ago and neglected to pack deodorant.

I'm running late for dinner and don't have time to run down to the lobby of the hotel that I'm staying at to see if they carry any. Then I remember that the Alum block and those deodorant crystals are basically the same thing so I give it a whirl under my arms. I can say that it does work very well at keeping you dry and odor free.

Just a little tip.

I find it only helps a little with the keeping dry part. However, it is the most effective deodorant I've every tried. Cheaper and more effective than anything from Gillette, Speed Stick, etc.
