Even after washing the shirt, will the armpit scent of the previous person that wore it stick to your armpits?

Question

EVEN after washing it by hand or by washing machine. Whether the scent is good or bad, will it really stick to you/your armpit even after several laundry washing? So, that's gonna be like, two scents, your amrpit scent and the previous person that wore the shirt.

Answer 1

Not if you pre-treat with something like Spray and Wash.   Soak the area with it - rub it in and leave rolled up for 20 mins. before running through the washer on warm or cold with the detergent you, usually, use.

Answer 2

Well... I've got some shirts I wore in the Marines, and I swear I can smell swamp on them every time after I wash them.. Of course I don't think shirts are sposed to take as much as what they have.  

But if theres a shirt that has armpit stench of the person that used to have it.. I don't think I'd be wearing it in the first place.
