Why are we less aware of our own bad breath than a person standing close to us?

I don’t know the technical answer, and this probably isn’t the best phrase for it but I’ve always heard it as becoming ‘nose blind’. If you’re around a smell constantly you eventually don’t notice it anymore.
So like people who work jobs around smelly smells eventually become nose blind to the smell and it dosen’t bother them.
Or the folks who hoard cats eventually don’t notice the smell of cat waste.
