its due to the MHC complex - a section of our immune system DNA that gets attached to pheromones and shared. Our olfactory systems are sophisticated enough to analyze for compatibility, and for 'just enough' difference to provide for a strong immune system in the possible progeny.

so people who smell 'bad' are not good mates
