If you can actively smell yourself, you're [...] really smelly.

Yeah. Thanks for reinforcing my point. You wouldn't go out in this state even if you give a fuck about other people, because it feels uncomfortable to you.

Ok, you're just neutral enough that you can't smell yourself. You still smell terrible to other people.

This doesn't change the argument.

That's beside the point. If you only care about your hygiene because of others, you're neglecting your own comfort. I'm not wearing deodorant, for example, because I don't want to. I'm still not smelly in the negative sense (yes I asked), because I take showers regularly - and I take showers regularly because I care about my own body

There is always going to be a difference between what you find acceptable for yourself and what others do. Societal and others' expectations can never perfectly confirm to individual desires.

You're just talking to be correct? Fine, you're right. Have a peaceful life
