I feel your olfactory pain. We have a fat assed H1B street shitter diversity hire that had to be instructed in basic Western hygiene standards by her direct manager. Her effluvia is most foul. Curry besotted body fat and soured ghee oozing from every pore.
At one time in my career I was said direct manager who's sad task it was to inform the offending (and offensive) Middle Easterner about his need for bathing and laundry day. It wasn't a pleasant experience in more ways than one.
I imagine it was one of two responses: either offended, or indifferent. Did I guess right?

His initial reaction was disbelief, No way could he smell bad enough to offend people. It took a while to get the point across that Western sensibilities are different. He was OK with it after I explained it enough. He even started wearing clean clothes more often.
