It's Official: Women pick up body odour better

Although I smell bull***t…

I wonder how they recruit for these studies.
On the other hand I guess there are some people who'd pay to go around sniffing strangers' 'pits.

Women may be better at sniffing out biologically relevant information from underarm sweat, a US study suggests.

Researchers found it was difficult to mask underarm odour when a woman was doing the smelling, but quite easy to do so when it was a man.

They speculate that a woman's highly attuned smell radar might help her select a mate.

The study, by Philadelphia's Monell Center, appears in Flavour and Fragrance Journal.

In the study, women and men rated the strength of underarm odours, both alone and in conjunction with various fragrances.
