Best way to stop the smell?

Are you shaving or waxing? That is a very common cause of odor. When the pubic area is hairless, air doesn't circulate well, and perspiration stays on the skin. The result is a very unpleasant odor, often accompanied by bacterial or fungal growth. To get healthy, odor-free skin, let the hair grow naturally.
Too-frequent showers can actually make the odor problem WORSE by destroying helpful bacteria that keep the stinky kind from thriving. Wash well, but not more than once a day for best results. All this is counter-intuitive, but it's just the way skin is.

By "Downstairs" I assume you mean that your penis smells. If so, you are probably and unfortunately, uncircumcised and you will need to start pulling your foreskin all the way back to uncover the groove behind your penis head in order to wash the area thoroughly several times a day. Use mild baby soap and warm water and wash until all the odour has gone. Uncircumcised men accumulate smegma (a foul-smelling white, cheesy substance) behind their foreskin and this causes the area to smell disgusting if it is not removed carefully and completely on a very regular basis as part of the regular hygiene regime. You really should consider getting circumcised - you'll have better hygiene, comfort, appearance and both you and your femelae partner(s) will have FAR better sex. All men should be circumcised!

Good hygeine. Shower daily with soap and water, and make sure you clean under the foreskin if you are uncircumcised. Use baby powder between your legs and around the genital area if you tend to sweat - that adds to the odor.

Go to healthfood store & buy a liquid called "Chlorophyll". It is very sweet tasting & non offensive. 1 spoonful daily cures bad breath; body odor; foot odor; any odor from the human body. It can even be poured down sewers to cure them of foul odors, or into garbage disposals, too.
It is very healing to the human body, as well...so you'll be doing your body a favor.
My brother had throat cancer where his neck bones were exposed & he stank. We gave this to him daily, & it worked.
