Until that question is answered, getting rid of body odor may still be the best bet for men wanting to attract a woman. "There is a lot more to smell and human relationships than what we know as scientists," says Monell's Wysocki. "But there is no good evidence that if a happily married woman catches a whiff of a particular chemical found in male sweat that she'll up and leave her husband." That can only be good news for the Gabors.

    Actually it's quite amazing that a woman's sense of smell is about 10 times better than a mans. Seems like everyday more amazing scents for guys are created to attract women (see xfragrances.com) and some of them are actually proven to work.

    Disgusting would be putting it mildly. Standing around with your nose in some guys armpit; you are kidding, right? Go bake a cake.

    Is there some shampoo or something we can use? Maybe with a little conditioner in it, you know? As for the stale urine, I can make plenty of that just watching a hockey game...should I mix up my own special potion? And where do I find all those ladies to sniff my armpits? I tried that in downtown Denver and the women of Colorado did not seem anxious for a sample.
