Gently rub diluted alcohol on your underarms to close opened pores and get rid of the perspiration that causes that unbearable odor. It might help clear the odor caused by perspiration and may help in reducing the production of sweat.

Make a solution of hydrogen peroxide and water. The antiseptic properties of hydrogen peroxide help neutralize unpleasant body odor.

Sandalwood powder is an effective solution to deal with underarm odor as it has a soothing aroma that nullifies bad odor and prevents perspiration.
