perspirer

One who sweats

A perspirer is someone who sweats.

The word appears occasionally in contexts discussing body odor, antiperspirants, or physical exertion: heavy perspirers may need clinical-strength deodorant.

It's a somewhat clinical or euphemistic alternative to saying someone sweats a lot.
