Literally same. It takes at least several days for me to start becoming a little odiferous, even if I've been doing some light physical work. But everyone has some odor to them, as they should, since it is of course natural and healthy. Hell, it is even one of the things that has attracted people to each other throughout the ages. As has been said, capitalism latched onto that as it does everything else that makes us human, and told us we had to buy products to attract people with scent, and then buy products just to keep from offending people by our scent!

I'm not around people much anymore I admit, so it usually doesn't matter either way, (but even when I did live with a partner and only showered 1-2 x / week, I was never told I needed to take one). But when I do have to go out like to run errands in town, that is when I make sure I'm cleaned up, meaning a shower beforehand.
