Definitely not - I hope I'd have done the same in your position.
I honestly believe that some men either a). don't have much, if any, contact with the opposite sex, and so are unaware about their 'fragrance', or b). have a long-term partner who no longer notices it or has given up trying to point it out. It's obviously not pleasant when someone points out that you smell, but some people are so self unaware they need to be told in no uncertain terms for it to get through to them.
It's the same with dentistry. I swear I've seen 2-3 men who probably last used a toothbrush before David Cameron became PM. Bleurgh!
