What type of glands are oil and sweat glands?
Sweat glands (sudoriferous glads) are distributed over the entire skin surface except the nipples and parts of the external genitalia. There is 2 types of sweat glands: eccrine and apocrine. Eccrine (merocrine) sweat glands are more numerous and particularly abundant on the palms, soles of the feet, and forehead. Each is a simple, coiled, tubular gland. Apocrine sweat glands are mostly found to the axillary and anogenital areas. They are merocrine glands, which release product by exocytosis like eccrine sweat glands. Oil (sebaceous) glands are found all over the body except in the thick skin of the palms and soles. They're simple branched alveolar glands.

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.
