armpit smell

Sweaty body funk

The characteristic odor produced by bacteria breaking down sweat in the underarm area.

Armpit smell ranges from mildly musky to intensely pungent, worsening with heat, exertion, or poor hygiene.

The term is straightforwardly descriptive: I forgot deodorant and now I've got serious armpit smell.
