do you not smell body odor or do you just get used to it?

Genuinely curious. I have met a few people of different walks of life that I could tell did not and I have always used it, so I’m just curious. I know there was a couple that stopped using it for around a year, and they said their body actually end up not perspiring as much as when they used antiperspirant, but I’d like to know other people’s experiences.

    Yeah I went without deodorant for a few weeks while I healed from a rash caused by another deodorant (usually aluminum fucks with me, but this one didn’t have aluminum, don’t know why I reacted so badly to it). I could smell my own stink when I raised my arms.

    But yeah, people who just go “natural” don’t realize how much body odor they carry. I’ve met many people over the years who just stink to high hell, but don’t realize or don’t care how much they smell.
