Tom's of Maine now makes a deodorant that looks exactly like their "classic" deodorant, except for a little red bar across the front that says "long-lasting." This is an entirely different formula and contains zinc ricinoleate, which many people are allergic to. (Allergic reactions include red, peeling circles on the any skin zinc ricinoleate touches and the ever-exciting burning skin.) If you buy Tom's and have sensitive skin, watch out for the new product, which is difficult to distinguish from the "classic" deodorant on a casual glance.

Also, join me in crankiness at Tom's "some individuals may develop an allergic reaction that is unique to them." Bull. They should know that this shit is not exact hypoallergenic; at least a quarter of their reviews on the site are from people who had contact dermatitis or allergic reactions. (Also, there are articles on pubmed about it. Pah.)
