Chemistry. Either you body has a metal component, like iron or magnesium, that is showing up in your perspiration or it could be from deodorant. The active ingredient in many deodorants is Aluminum Chlorohydrate. Even a slightly elevated level of a metal in your perspiration combined with the metal component in deodorant could make the distinctive smell noticeable. Check the ingredients in deodorants and try to find one without aluminum. If that doesn't lessen the odor, you may have to ask your doctor.
