While inside a smoke-free bar, we selected six random guys for testing to gauge where on their bodies they actually smelled. Our findings were intriguing. But first, some 411 on the tests…
Scientific Test Description (time to get out your science dictionary):
Dr. Hirsch from the Smell & Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago conducted a “headspace analysis test” on participants in the juvenescent nocturnal meeting ground to determine their “malodor levels” and assess somatically derived emanations from the axillae, abdomen, back and scalp.
Layman’s Terms
We tested six brave guys in the bar to see how much they smell on different parts of their bodies. Dr. Hirsch sniffed (ever so scientifically) their underarms, stomach, back and head.

The Conclusion
- Based on tests of six guys, underarms aren't the only areas of your body that get sweaty and smell. You need to combat odors on your back, chest and abdomen as well.
