Most would say because of sweat...
Actually, armpit sweat is odourless. The small amount of apocrine secretion in the sweat, however, causes the problem. Although fresh apocrine in sweat is also odourless, that characteristic smell develops when the sweat is broken down by the hair and skin cells in the armpit, and then eaten by bacteria. It's actually the bacteria that make the smell, releasing a chemical called 3-methyl-2-hexenoic acid.
