Depends on climate. If its hot, you need deoderant.
If you’re gonna freeze off fits you don’t even have the moment one of your ten layers unzips, you may not.
Modern deoderant is modern. There’s a long history of scent coverings, especially in indoor public spaces like temples. Why the bucket of hydrogenated whale piss do you think incense started being a thing?
We also lacked indoor plumbing, sanitation, sewage management, and typically had livestock near people as there were no highways or 18-wheelers to deliver meat from a farm in another region.
We had more space back then LOL. And some middle east area they wore scented deoderants on their head that would waft down and mask body odor.
I can shower, put on fresh clothes and if the temperature is above 20C I’ll be stinky as heck just after lunch. I always need deoderant or antiperspirant if I need to interact with anybody (including myself)
We survived a few thousand years or so without deodorant.
If you shower daily and wear clean clothes, you shouldn’t need it.
We survived a few thousand years without showering daily and clean clothes. We had different lifestyles and different expectations.
Most people would have washed daily by some method, we’ve had soap and water for a very long time.
So you’ve acclimated to your own stench, got it

I definitely don’t live in a hot climate, I’ll be lucky if the temperature hits double digits today.

Life was stanky for thousands of years.

Yeah. Survived. We can still survive. Doesn’t mean you don’t smell bad.
And there they are.
You stink.
Our lives are filled with things we don’t “need” that we are not going to do away with any time soon.
Just have a shower, dude.
