According to Mary Johnson, principal scientist at Procter & Gamble, over two-thirds of laundry dirt comes from the secretions of the outer body, namely in the forms of sweat and sebum. Sebum is the oily waxy substance that you feel on your skin. It is secreted naturally and acts as a waterproofing shield—preventing the leakage of water from the body. However, it can also be to blame as the culprit for stinky clothes that aren’t washed or dried properly.
If not removed during the wash, these natural oils hunker down in the fiber of the cloth. Also, sebum, by nature, is very sticky and attracts other odor-causing dirt elements that accentuate the stench.
