Deodorants are designed to stop perspiration (sweating) and are supposed to last longer if you get a quality one. Whereas perfume comes in a more varied assortment of smells and is just supposed to make you smell better but is not necessary. Also perfume tends to cost more.
anti-perspirant = to stop you from sweating


deODORant = to keep you from smelling nasty (keyword here is odor)


perfume = to make you smell nice (not necessarily to hide or prevent odors - that's what deodorants are for)
