One way would be to place a pack of breath mints on their desk without them knowing about it. Or, whenever you need to speak to them, be cool and pull out a pack of mints. Put one mint in your mouth as you're offering them one. If they still don't get the hint, then maybe you should just be honest with them and let them know that they need to keep some mints or mouthwash handy. Hopefully, they'll understand and not turn the situation into some kind of game and start picking on you about your hair or body or something.
Or, you could just tell your supervisor and let them handle it in private in the office. Then you don't have to be the enemy.

I have had this situation before..and the way I approached it was very discreetly whispering to the person that she want to get a mint because her breath is bad today. Then I told her that I wasn't meaning to offend her, but I would want someone to tell me as well. She was cool and thanked me and got a mint, and I notice that she keeps mints with her now. Problem solved.

there is no polite way to tell someone that their breath smells like something died inside their mouth, you should carry mints or gum with you and if you have to talk to this person get you one first and then offer her one. Let someone else be the rude one.

Buy the mints and then offer them one every time you are near them. Just giving them the pack is not a guarantee they'll take them or get the hint.

Nicely say to him : "hey, i have tried this gum, it tastes good! want some?" I think do it few more times he may pick up an interest to at least eat some gum.maybe his breath will be improved a bit.....

one time, me and two of my other friends were driving to club. And the fuker in the passenger seat has some really bad breath. Offered that fool gum several times and he wouldn't take it. By the time we got to the club, i threw up. Nasty *** fools.

Yes, offer them some chewing gum...
Oh when you see them in the restroom; take your toothbrush & floss out, & brush your teeth. When you finish, tell them how good a fresh mouth feels.
