Reply to comment by godsfathermixtape in Why does the armpit smell so different than the other sweaty parts of your body? by haribobosses

This. The apocrine glands are more dense in those areas and have more reactive androgen and estrogen receptors. They also may be more dense in steroidogenesis enzymes which change cholesterol/other steroids into other compounds.

A common effect of anabolic steroids is a massive change to your armpit smell.
