Answer 1

Fisrt of all, you should take him aside, privately and let him know and that you dont want anyone to embarass him.

Answer 2

If he's truely your friend you should be able to tell him although it's probably best to do so in private and not be too confrontational about it. i.e. "Hmm, you don't smell so good today, had a rough night" would probably go over much better then "You stink freak! Did you carry crap in your bag today? Get the hell out of my car!"

Answer 3

Here's what I did to my friend.

I got him out to do some shopping with me and then brought him to a personal care shop. They sold all kinds of deoderant, shapes and sizes, flavors and smells. I got him to choose one for me. Also I offered to get one for him by asking him what smell does he like and flavor even. I began to tell him that he would smell so much better with them on and that sometimes people do smell bad when they perspire. I kept emphaising that it happens to me and he should just be caution that it doesn't happen to him. So we walked out of the personal store happy and having accepted something about ourselves.
