What’s the best way to let someone know they have a body odor issue? You can approach the situation with honesty and empathy, having a heartfelt conversation with the person to address the matter. Alternatively, if you prefer a more discreet method, we’ve got some clever ideas for you.
Welcome to Evil Week at Mytour, where we explore unconventional and sometimes questionable strategies to tackle everyday challenges. While we aim to highlight these methods to encourage better alternatives, those with a mischievous streak might find these tips genuinely useful. The choice is yours.
A handy site named NoOffenseOrAnything.com allows you to send an anonymous email to your acquaintance, informing them about their odor issue. No account or personal details are required—simply input their name and email into the site’s form. They’ll receive a message (which might end up in their spam folder, potentially thwarting your plan) that reads as follows:
Dear Beth,
No offense intended, but a concerned friend wants to let you know about a body odor issue. Please don’t take it personally—many people deal with body odor without realizing it! It’s a natural part of being human, but there are simple steps you can take to fix it:
1. Shower every day. Use a gentle soap all over your body, making sure to clean areas like your underarms and private parts thoroughly.
2. Apply deodorant daily. It’s available at any grocery store, pharmacy, or convenience store and is quite affordable. If you tend to sweat heavily, opt for an antiperspirant instead.
3. Avoid covering up the smell with cologne. This will only make the situation worse.
4. Wash your clothes frequently. Unwashed garments can contribute to unpleasant odors!
5. If you’re already following these steps and still struggle with body odor, you might have a condition known as “hyperhidrosis,” which causes excessive sweating. Consult a healthcare professional for advice.

For a more customized approach, consider setting up an anonymous email account (is “[email protected]” already in use?) and sending your message directly.
If you’d like to add a thoughtful gesture to your message, consider sending a gift. Be cautious, though—Amazon occasionally includes the sender’s details on packages. To avoid this, the team at Worst Gifts recommends using a gift card to purchase items like deodorant or a luxurious bubble bath (why not make it something special?).
