An anonymous note might be helpful if you're unsure about how to approach this person. However, if you are friends with this individual and you think the friendship could weather it, try telling them in a friendly, non-condemning way. You might try leaving articles or products related to the problem on their desk (anonymously). Imaging yourself in their place and ask yourself how you would like to be treated. Would you prefer to be told and how?

If the certs hint doesn't work put a little lotion right under your nose and trust me the smell of lavender will knock that bad breath smell away.

Easy, pick up a pack of gum. Next time that person starts talking, pick up a piece of gum for yourself and offer him or her a piece. He or she will get the hint without being embarasses.

Just make a kind joke about their breath. They might feel a little self consious about that and take a mint. No pain no gain. It wont hurt their feelings too bad if at all.

Pull them to one side and tell them honestly!
Don't say "Oi, you're breath stinks, go and brush your teeth!"
I mean politely, just say that you and other people have noticed that he/she has a slight problem with their breath and you wanted to let them know, so people didn't start talking about them behind their back.

It's gets the point across, you look like a caring friend and (hopefully) their feelings won't be hurt!

Always have mints handy. I've run into this a lot so I usually carry a tin around with me and just pop one in my mouth and generously offer them one as well. With time, they seem to figure it out... you know, pick up what I'm putting down.

stand away when talking to her...or keep your head down ''looking at something''. Mention someone elses bad breath ( fake person you ''know'') and see how she reacts..Unless you are guts enough to ask her about it your kind of stuck.

Keep mints on your desk and causually offer him/her one. If you dont want to be too obvious, you can offer everyone a mint too.
