City with UK’s smelliest blokes revealed…and nearly half of them refuse to use deodorant

BRUMMIES are the smelliest blokes in Britain because they refuse to use deodorant, a poll has found.

Nearly half of men from Birmingham — setting for gangster series Peaky Blinders — say they hate spraying their armpits, believing their natural odour is more attractive.

They compare with Geordie men, nearly two thirds of whom spray every day, making them the sweetest-smelling fellas in the country.

Birmingham plasterer Niall Rickman, 37, never uses deodorant.

He said: “So long as you have a shower every day and keep clean there is no point in wasting good money on all that smelly stuff.”

But the survey revealed that more than four in ten fellas in all but two of the ten cities covered spurned deodorant.
