Common Misconceptions About Armpit Odor – And How to Treat It Scientifically

Underarm odor is a sensitive and common problem, especially in hot and humid climates like Vietnam. However, there are many common misconceptions that make the treatment of body odor ineffective - even counterproductive. Below are 5 common misconceptions and the right solutions to effectively and safely control odor.

❌ Misconception 1: Armpit odor is caused by sweat
👉 Fact: Sweat itself has no odor. The unpleasant odor appears when sweat combines with bacteria that live on the skin, especially in the armpit area - where apocrine sweat glands are active.

✅ Solution: Use a deodorant that controls sweat and inhibits bacteria – treating the root cause of the odor, not just covering it up.

❌ Misconception 2: Using perfume or body mist is enough
👉 Truth: Perfume only covers odors for a short time and does not control sweat or bacteria. When mixed with body odor, perfume creates an even more unpleasant smell.

✅ Solution: Always use deodorant first, then spray perfume on appropriate areas (wrist, behind ears...), avoid spraying on armpits.

❌ Misconception 3: Only "dirty" people have smelly armpits👉 Truth: Armpit odor is not directly related to hygiene. Physical condition, genetics, hormones and diet also greatly affect body odor.

✅ Solution: In addition to cleaning, you should choose a deodorant product suitable for your body type, maintain healthy eating habits, and limit foods with strong odors (garlic, onions, curry, etc.).

❌ Misconception 4: Only people who sweat a lot need deodorant


👉 Fact: Even if you sweat little, if your body has a lot of bacteria in the armpit area, odor can still arise. In addition, people who sweat little but exercise a lot and wear tight clothes are also at risk of armpit odor.

✅ Solution: Deodorizing is a habit that should be maintained every day, regardless of gender, activity level or weather.
