Hygiene problem?: You don't say where the odor is coming from, but my guess is genital or maybe anal area? Or maybe underarms or general body odor? No matter where, hygiene probably is the answer. Shower or bathe once a day, using an antibacterial soap; wipe completely after defecation; and if uncircumcised, retract the foreskin and wash with soap & water twice daily. If these don't help, see a doctor.
