Collection: Body odor/aging odor

The main cause of body odor and aging odor is the proliferation of bacteria when bodily fluids such as sebum and sweat remain on the surface of the skin. When bacteria break down these bodily fluids, volatile organic compounds are produced, which cause the unpleasant odor. In addition, as we age, the amount of sebum and sweat secreted increases, and the skin also ages and oxidizes, which can make the odor of aging stronger. An individual's lifestyle, diet, and the presence or absence of stress are also factors that affect odor.
