There are men who really, really take care of themselves and then there are those who seem to have it all together without even doing anything. If you’ve ever wondered how your friend or colleague always smells so good when you start sweating and smelling an hour into the day.

While showering regularly is a no-brainer, there are a few other things that well-groomed men swear by to make sure they are always smelling like a summer breeze. 

You can incorporate these habits too and never smell bad again.  

Here are a few habits of great-smelling men that they subconsciously do every day to smell unbelievably good all the damn time:

• Use The Right Products

1. Wear Washed, Breathable Clothes

For men who tend to sweat a lot, the easiest thing you can do to smell good is to combat the body odour trapped in dirty and sweaty clothes. 

Wear summer-friendly fabric like cotton, breezy outfits and light colours. Also, make sure you only wear clean and washed clothes. 

Use a sweet-smelling detergent so that even your clothes smell nice. 

2. Use A Nice Fragrance

It goes without saying that a nice perfume is your best friend if smelling good is what you’ve been earning for. Using a nice fragrance is good manners and you should carry a small bottle everywhere you go. 

It’s just one of the secrets of smelling fresh and nice all the time. You can find your signature fragrance be it, cool and fruity or strong and spicy like this one.

3. Limit The Smelly Food

What most people don’t know is that the food you eat also contributes to how you smell. 

Some of the stinkiest foods that men who smell great steer clear from are garlic, onion and fried foods. They tend to make you sweat more and are the culprit behind the foul body odour. Instead, have green tea to kill bacteria in your mouth and smell pleasant and fresh.

4. Use Fresh Bedding

The sweat from your clothes and skin can transfer to your bedsheets and can make you smell bad even when you’ve taken a shower. 

Using fresh and washed sheets, pillow covers and blankets is not only hygienic but can help your smell fresh and good. So change the bedding once every week or twice if you sweat more. 

5. Use The Right Products

Most of your grooming and skincare products are packed with a sweet smell. However, it’s important to also have antibacterial and summer-friendly ingredients in your products.
