    Well in all my years of semi-alcoholism, I have never heard of your sweat smelling of alcohol. Neither have I ever smelled anyone's alcoholic sweat. And I can assure you, some of the boyo's I hung around with in the day would lick the sweat off you if they thought it was alcoholic, and I've never seen that happening either.

    In fairness now, that's a bit like a smoker protesting that he never notices the smell of stale smoke on other people, therefore neither he nor them smell.

    You don't smell of smoke from sweating tobacco either.

    Chewing on fresh parsley is an amazing breath freshener. Someone told me years ago that it is the best thing for masking the smell of fags and it works! Also works for booze or garlic breath.

    Sweat or not, a smoker will smell of tabocco, and not just out of his mouth.

    And a drinker have a BO of alcohol.

    Because once you've washed your teeth, then all you have to worry about is it seeping out through your skin, which a hot shower will cure.

    Washing your teeth will only mask it a bit, you will still get the smell of drink through the mint of the tooth paste and the minty smell will wear off fairly fast too leaving the smell of drink which can last for a few hours.

    Missus, unless one is a prostitute, your sweat doesn't smell like what you've consumed.

    Most of the odour actually comes from your stomach so the best thing to do is drink some Febreze

    Shower and brush the teeth, wear clean clothes. Why bother with tricks?

    That doesn't work always. If you've had a heavy night on the sauce you still reek of it at work.

    It does seep thru the skin in swear.

    Try this experiment. Eat a curry every day for a week and stick your nose in your armpit....you will see!

    Well if you were on the beer every night for a week, it might.


    But, for the love of God, when people say "you reek of beer", or "nobody light a match, we'll all go up hur hur", or " you smell like a brewery" or " were you drinkin white spirits" or any other such drink and smell related comments such as those, its your BREATH they're referring to, not clothes, not hair, not BO, not anything hygiene related. The OP is taking for granted that the good readers of Boards.ie have the good sense to know this, and he is asking about ways to disguise the smell of his body that he CANT control. If a wash would do, do you really think he'd go on international airwaves to ask if he should take a shower or not? Seriously? Maybe BO after a night out is an issue for fat people, but for the normal majority of us, when people refer to smelling of beer they mean off your BREATH!




    FFS people.

    Suck on a lump of charcoal. Booze breath sorted.

    The best thing to do would be to gargle some farmers wine and eat 7 brussels sprouts.

    Try to hide the smell all you want. The eyes will always give you away.

    Check out the "How many infractions have you?" thread. I started it, and they ended up banning me!

    EDIT: Actually, I just checked it out there now, all the deadly posts were deleted in the last few pages. Feckers.
