Deodorant of Change
In 1888, the first commercial was made for deodorant by a company called Mum. It was created by a US inventor from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, named Edna Murphy. It has been used for decades and was a great accomplishment to drift away from the weird past. People of the earlier centuries didn’t have a deodorant of this nature and, as such, came up with different elements (like nosegays) to reduce the bad odor they sported.

People didn’t speak of bad anyone’s odor during those days as everyone basically smelled the same way. The deodorant created by Murphey called mum was a type of slang that meant “to keep quiet” and was a cream that would suppress the high scent, which was the norm of the day.
