In the nose of the beholder?

[Love2Smell]

Body odors keep making the news lately.  Good news, guys: it’s not entirely our fault.

“When it comes to a man’s body odor, the fragrance — or stench — is in the nose of the beholder, according to U.S. researchers who suggest a single gene may determine how people perceive body odor.”

I’m assuming this is referring to a sweaty man without the use of deodorant.  There is definitely a “sweat” smell that seems more pronounced in males than females, in my experience.  Now body odor is a different story.  I’m not sure I desire the scent of a sweaty, non-deodorant using male in any circumstances but maybe that’s just me. :buck2: And I definitely have never thought sweat smelled of vanilla or urine.  Very interesting article though…

Well, yes, I was going for maximum effect there.  The Yahoo News article doesn’t say how intense of a sweat stimulus they offered to the ladies who volunteered to do the sniffing.

My wife’s sweat does have a light, appealing smell, at least to my nose.  She’s grossed out by her smell when she comes back from her workout.  I’m ready to haul her off to bed.  :rolleyes:

I definately have some sort of fetish in regards to a man’s BO.

I have to clarify that there IS a line between BO and stank.  My preference is for a slighty pungent musky salty smell…

When we were just dating, and not sleeping together every night, my wife-to-be would ask me to give her my worn T-shirts.  When she was alone, she would sleep with them, smell them, and sometimes masturbate — sigh, those were the days.  You’re right, she didn’t want the ones I had drenched in sweat on a hard bicycle ride.  She wanted a normal one.

With my wife getting off on my shirts, why did it take me years and years longer to figure out what joys were hidden inside a woman’s panties?  Oh well, at least I discovered the secret eventually.

I love my husband’s worn t’shirts as well……..definitely not drenched in workout sweat, but the smell of him is just too much to resist!! 🙂 BO and that “man” smell are definitely different…..”man” smell is great!

Well all I can say is hubby is a prion officer. He has to wear white shirts and some days when he comes home the shirt is soaking with sweat. Its not the most pleasant smell in my opinion, but once the shirt comes off and you can see the sweat running down his chest…………well sometimes a women just has to do what she feels like
