Same here. Odor depends on the balance what's in your skin microbiome, just like our gut flora are different. Asians tend to not stink for example (with plenty of individual exceptions).
Your nose has become desensitized due to your constant stench.
No, the OP probably has dry (as opposed to sticky) earwax, which is correlated with have the no-stink gene, which is common among Asians. Only 2% of white people (British at least) have that. The OP is likely Asian.
I’m white and I don’t wear deodorant. It’s a combo of:
- showering everyday
- showering after I do something that would work up a sweat.
- never get too warm.
- not giving a fuk
You forgot "low testosterone".
some people don't have body odour at all. like the other guy said, go and live in asia, the only asians that smell are the homeless and that's more of an earthly smell from their environment and general accumulation of dirt from not showering for many weeks, it's not a body odour smell. so even with those dudes it's mostly their clothes that smell, not their body. then you have other areas of the world (I won't name countries and races in case the post is removed) where there really is a body odour problem.
sweat being reactivated i.e. jogging to work and sweating a bit, then working in an office all day and then jogging home - during that middle period your clothes are like a breeding area for the microbes, and then the conditions are ripe for odour as you travel home and after you get home (moist and warm) so you really need to wash or change clothes every time you sweat because it's the clothes that absorb most of the sweat.

I'm a crocodile. You smell fab hun.
You don't smell yourself. You do stink. Just ask people around you.
You’re manipulating your mandible maniacally, shut up. Use your phalanges to hit the little button on the side of your phone, and then don’t turn it back on. I you’re doing yourself a favor.
I rarely wear deodorant. I shower every day. If I'm going to be out and about and around people all day, especially in the warm summer, I typically wear it. I've asked many, many friends if I smell and never gotten a yes. But, I find I can do most "normal" day to day activities without really smelling.
BO is primarily related to bacteria feeding on protein salts excreted when one sweats. If you eat more protein than your body can utilize (common in U.S. diets), you are far more likely to have a BO problem. Re-balance one's diet and regularly shower, and most people will not have any BO problem or need to use deodorant.
Red meat eaters have BO.
The stink resides in the nether regions of everyone’s anii, if you just poke the bear.
You’ve got low T.
When I have a bowel movement it never stinks.
You've mostly got it.
Listen guys: sweat itself doesn't stink.
The "sweaty" and "locker-room" smells that many people confuse with sweat are actually bioproducts of organic matter on the body being heated and mixed with sweat.
Try this: take a very thorough shower, really scrubbing everywhere, and then go for a run in clean gear. You probably won't smell. Compare that to going to evening practice wearing a day's build-up of human grime, when naturally you will smell!
I suggest you ask people around you...
If he seems to enjoy... WHAT?
Asking for a friend.
