I think being direct is it. I would use the deoderant thing. Tell them that others have complained in other departments while they interact. Not to point to the people whom they sit right next to. I had a friend like that...I had to say SOMETHING. I kept getting this whiff of something gross..I thought it was me. I took off to the washroom, checked everywhere..was not me. Went back to work, and then he rolled his chair right next to me– when I was hit by a wall of stench. I had to tell him. He made the change and has not stunk since. (this happened on several separate occasions of the smell happening and I thinking it was me checked, not to find anything. It was a relief to know that was not me steeeenkin' like that!)
