Wikipedia says it all: “Human sweat itself is largely odorless until it is fermented by bacteria. Bacteria thrive in hot, humid, acidic environments. The human underarm is among the consistently warmest areas on the surface of the human body, and sweat glands provide moisture, which when excreted, has a vitally cooling effect. When adult armpits are washed with pH basic soaps, the skin loses its acid mantel (pH 4.5 – 6), raising the pH to become basic. Bacteria thrive in high pH or base environments. Creating such an environment in the armpit makes it more susceptible to bacterial colonization[1]. The bacteria feed on the sweat from the apocrine glands and on dead skin and hair cells, releasing 3-methyl-2-hexenoic acid in their waste, which is the primary cause of body odor[2]. It is healthy and necessary to sweat[3]. Underarm hair is designed to wick the moisture away from the skin and aids in keeping the skin dry enough to prevent or diminish bacterial colonization. The hair is less susceptible to bacterial growth and therefore is ideal for preventing the bacterial odor[4].”
