Try washing under your arms if you don't have deodorant. It is not as good, but it is better than nothing. Take a paper towel and soap. Wipe of the soap. Do not rinse. Soap kills the bacteria that causes odor. Shave under your arms. That does not let sweat build up and does not let bacteria build up.
