By stale sweat I'm assuming you mean sweat that has dried? First off, there are lots of electrolytes that you lose through your sweat. Secondly, bacteria like to grow in moist areas and sweat is very moist as you well know. When bacteria get in the sweat, they use it as a food because you have all these nutrients you lose and when they use the sweat as food, they release a gas and this is what gives it that smell. The smell will stay even after it is dry because it has not been washed away.

What are the similarities and differences between apocrine sweat glands and eccrine sweat glands?
Eccrine and apocrine sweat glands are both referred to as sudoriferous glands. The eccrine glands are found all over the body and function throughout your life. Apocrine glands develop during puberty and are most active throughout adulthood and are located in the armpits, areolar, genital, and anal areas. They are also the ones responsible for what we refer to as body odor. It is not the sweat that actually has to odor, but the bacteria that it attracts excretes its wastes as it digests the sweat. It is the bacteria's waste products that actually have the odor. So, you could say, you do not have body odor. Instead, you have bacteria odor.
