So to Asians who think non-Asians small like rancid butter, we actually smell like human vomit, if that's what I'm to gather from the wiki link about what rancid butter actually smells like.
I was in a relationship with a guy who could not eat onions without reeking of them to the point that it was highly unpleasant for me to share close proximity with him after he ate any amount, to the point I could tell onions were in his food that day without even knowing when, what, or if he ate. And with another who's body flirts with that issue but never gets quite as intense, but who reeks of any - even the smallest few sips - of alcohol, to the point the smell is so intense as to be unbearable to me.
Then again, I can smell vodka reeking out of people, which seems technically impossible because vodka is not supposed to have any odor. I'd put it down to what I'm actually smelling is the alcoholic waste products of vodka emanating from skin, but the problem is, vodka has a smell to me coming straight out of the bottle, too (which is a slightly different, "cleaner", and less alcoholic smell than the one I detect as vodka-induced body odor). The cheaper it is the worse it smells (and the worse the body odor from it is, as well). Which is why when I do drink vodka, it's not cheap.
I tend to reek of garlic if I eat enough of it, and maybe a little less of onion; no matter how much onion I eat the smell doesn't seem to get too intense.
