I've been guilty as well, despite my best intentions and starting the day off scrubbed clean. There are parts of the world where you just can't avoid sweat-inducing heat during the summer. I even washed as best as I could and changed shirts once onboard, but, alas, I fear my new shirt was only a bit fresher than the old one.
That experience taught me tolerance.
