When I say I had a temporary increase in BO, I mean I noticed mild BO after, say, 6 hours during the transition period, and I showered again.

Before trying this, it would take 12 hours to get that level of BO.

And currently, I basically never notice that level of BO during a 24 hour cycle. It just vanished.

Measurement was....smelling my armpit.

Are you sure you just didn't get used to it? I had a friend that got into this and while he thought he smelled fine... no one else concurred except other people also living the same way.

I had to keep repeating this in various posts in this thread, but: I've had plenty of spontaneous comments from lovers, who didn't know I didn't use soap.

So yes, pretty sure. Especially since I DIDN'T get used to it before I stopped using soap. I was familiar with the smell of BO. But now it just doesn't arrive.

I wonder if it is that BO is really gone or is it just that you don't notice it anymore.
