Okay, this may sound a little preposterous or a stupid question but is it true??.... The darker your skin color the more you will smell? I mean I know melanin has something to do with your smell, as well as sweat glands and so on, but it would, in a way, make sense, I mean Africans, Asians, Hispanics, etc. all have a different and stronger odor than white people (well caucasians to be more appropriate) in general it seems.
Note: I'm not insinuating anything and this is not meant to be racial.

I don't think body odor has anything to do with the color of your skin. I think it is mainly due to what is eaten, which then can be smelled through the pores and breath.

Can anyone else relate because, although I know your breath might smell of what you ate, but I'm a little skeptical about the smell of the food/drink coming through your skin? I don't know that might be true but that's weird...

Odors absolutely come through the skin, especially when it's warm. People who eat a lot of garlic "sweat" it out through their pores. Trust me, it's true.
Skin color and odor really have nothing to do with one another.

Body odor is related to what you put into your body, not what color your skin is.....
Have you ever sat with a bunch of Koreans who have been eating Kimchea? (Pickled cabbage?) That odor that comes from them has nothing to do with their light skin color, trust me.... :)
