My husband has a problem like this. If he keeps hydrated he smells better. Another thing is that you sweat scents that you eat, so if you ate curry or onions you will smell like curry or onions in a couple hours. Use a stronger deodorant and a body wash (or use face wash as body wash) that has peroxide or alcohol in it and that will kill some of the bacteria. Wear breathable materials like cotton, skip the synthetic materials like polyester and acrylic they don't breath so its like sealing in the stench.
Hope all of this helps.

Your body produces two kinds of sweat, one that doesnt smell and more of a cooling device for your body, and there is the sweat that smells - B.O. Body oder has been show to be a cause of bacteria, and that bacteria lives in our hair! The scalp, genitals, and armpits contain the most of this smelly sweat.
So, the obvious thing is to TRIM your armpit hair a bit. Dont shave them like a girl, but trim it so you have about half an inch or a little less. It may not sound manly, but would you rather smell like an onion? No girls are going to want to be around you if you smell bad. I noticed during high school that I was getting bad B.O. and I trimmed my armpit hair. The improvements were dramatic!
Also, you didnt say how old you are, but I'm willing to bet you are a teenager. Puberty will cause young boys and teenagers to smell a bit. It's natural and will go away as you age, same with acne.
Make sure you shower twice a day. You dont have to soap your entire body for both showers. Soap up your entire body in the morning shower, then in the evening shower, just soap the obvious areas (genitals, butt, armpits, face). You will start smelling better.
A good deodorant to use is Degree for Men. It is the best deodorant for intense body oder.

Have you thought about what you have been eating? There are certain foods that can give you body odor- onions and
sausages are a couple. Additionally, deodarant will not take
care of it if you do not first wash off the smell with soap and water. After you've washed with soap & water, then you can use the deodorant to help with body odor. Another thing you MUST do to help control body odor- you NEED to wash your hair. Hair holds so many smells- like smoke, fishy odors, etc.
The oils in your hair hold the smell on like glue. Get a good shampoo and wash your hair, then rinse it really well. If you have trouble getting the shampoo out- add some lemon juice or vinegar to some water to cut the soap then rinse again.

shower...seriously.. being clean is the only good way to get rid on B.O. everything else just covers it up... which mean they can wear off at bad times. being clean and have preventive measures in place (I.E. deodorant) will solve the problem, and if it doesn't then you need to see a doctor.

deoderants the best way,
if not,
you may have a problem,
if you continuously smell of it,
im not sure what its called
but i know there is such a thing,
something to do with sweat glands
and imbalances in ur metabolism cause the smell to get worse.
so you dont sweat as much
maybe wear lose clothing,
made with an airy material

You thought you had no problem with BO, but smoking weed alters your perceptions including your sense of smell. When you're high you think nobody can tell, but anyone with half a brain can: you look altered, you act altered, and you smell altered. Now that you're straight you're accurately smelling the toxins that your body is trying to remove.

Uh! Shower-EVERY day! Use an antibacterial soap. Shampoo at least every other day and use a good antiperspirant. If you need to you can also use a powder. If feet are a problem there are special powders and spray. Girls HATE a guy who smells and even worse is one who tries to cover it up by spraying on cologne.

Start from the inside and watch what you eat such as curry, garlic and other spices then I'll join the rest of Yahoo answers when they say shower with water and soap. Wash your clothes too.
Where's your mama?
