I take your question at face value and don't detect a hint of racism in it. My own experiences are that they and the dark-skin from Bangladesh, Pakistan, Indonesia do have a strong body odour which is quite repulsive. All do eat predominantly curry dishes daily. BUT interestingly the Africans do not have such strong body odor - curry is alien to their diet.

My house owner friend avoid letting her houses to Indians and such in particular because of the heavy curry meals they would cook - she does this by quoting overpriced rentals.

Yes they do. The reason is that the spices used in the curry, if properly used during preparation will give a sweet & tempting smell, which states that the curry is yummy…….

It's not just Indian People who smell of curry. If you too want this aroma, just eat a fair amount of Lime Pickle. Guaranteed, the next day, you'll be able to smell it through your skin.

Yes, like southern Europeans smell of garlic. Best to eat curry and garlic yourself - then you won't notice. Also, something my Daddy told me - Westerners smell foul to most Chinese, because of the amount of dairy products they consume. No one's perfect.

Are you sure that you''r not Jade Goody, this is either a stupid or racial question.

Do the English always stink of fish and chips?

Get real. Food smells get onto clothing. Not just onto skin.
