What is body odor and why does it seem to “hang” in the air? Why is it so profound in some individuals? Was there an advantage to this?

I dont know the how or why of it all, but someone once told me that a persons body odor smelling pleasant to you signals that you’re near genetic opposites to that person, meaning your offspring would have a variety of genes, making them stronger. Someone that smells bad to you signals that you’re too similar genetically, and wouldnt make strong offspring. I doubt theres any science to back it up, but it hangs in the back of my mind sometimes.
