The smell emitted by the human body, is unique in the animal world. Not only that almost all the human body emits various odors - so also the microorganisms that live on us, and the smell is not the best.

Scientists believe that the most smelly creature on the planet is man. Human sweat is a mixture of carbon dioxide, ammonia, lactic acid and seven other carboxylic acids, which have a very pungent smell.
While we believe that animals have a heavy smell than we do, studies show that the surface of the body of birds and other animals emit less volatile organic compounds.
