Sweat Vinegar Smell: It is not entirely uncommon for sweat to have a mild vinegar smell. If you are sweating significantly/profusely at night-time, that may need to be looked into however. Deodorants can help you reduce odor caused by bacteria and antiperspirants can help reduce the volume of sweat produced. Even Botox can help with long-term reduction of sweat.
