If you eat a lot of particular spices, they will come out in your sweat as well as other bodily fluids. Mint is this way; so’s coffee, and so’s cinnamon and other curry spices. Anyone who’s ever drank a lot of strong, rich coffee can tell you that even your urine can smell of coffee. If you eat a lot of mints (Altoids addict, or cough drops) it will smell of mint — menthol, the essential oil in mint, can get all throughout your body. The same goes for other strong spices. Japanese sources from early in the contact between Japan and Europe also describe Europeans as smelling of spoiled milk. It’s probably because we eat cheese! I understand many Asians and Blacks don’t, due to lactose-intolerance. So that’s probably a reason it’s noticed more across racial lines (er, why whites don’t think each other smell like that) — we all eat too much cheese to notice. 🙂 When I was involved with a Black woman, it was her hair cream rather than skin lotion which I noticed as smelling strongly — of coconut. And it got -everywhere-. 🙂
