I'm honestly surprised by the amount of gross people here. It doesn't matter if you asked some people about your smell. You don't use deodorant and go about your day, you smell. It is as simple as that. Sure, right after a shower of when lying on the couch the whole day you might be fine. But as soon as you start moving, you smell.
Let the down-votes come :)
To be honest, I think this can also depend a lot on the climate that you’re from. In cold and dry climates you don’t necessarily get as smelly. When I moved to a hot and humid place it was like “okay, showers are a multiple times a day thing here, I guess.” Even when staying inside and loafing about in air conditioning it was noticeably worse. There’s a number of factors that change from person to person too… some people are greasier, some people are stinkier. You should probably shower and deodorant up whenever you’re going to leave the house and be near other people as a rule of thumb, but I think a fair number of people don’t shower every day and can get by okay.
This 100%, for me at least
hell, I shower once a week, when I'm not doing manual labor like, say, construction or weightlifting. (which I then shower immediately after.)>
I don't smell at all by day 6, but my hair gets mildly greasy, so I wash it.

YMMV, obviously.
worth noting that I've also been noseblind since birth, and the only feedback I have in my scnents (or lack thereof) has been my family's noses, and my partner's nose.
