Abstract in brief
This study examined how competitive outcomes, like winning or losing in a fight, influence the smell of human body odour, with winners and losers showing changes in odour qualities such as pleasantness, attractiveness, masculinity, and intensity.
Results showed that after a match, body odour generally became less pleasant, attractive, and intense, while it became more masculine; losing specifically caused a more noticeable decrease in pleasantness.
The research suggests that the emotional impact of losing, particularly feelings of negativity, mediates changes in how attractive body odour is perceived, indicating that competition experiences can send subconscious cues about dominance qualities through body odour.]
