I am sweating a lot.

Sweat smells bad.

Why do we perceive sweat to smell bad?

Because our noses don't like it

I don't actually think it's sweat that smells bad, rather it's the bacteria on your skin that breaks down the sweat that causes what we call BO.

I guess my broader question is why do we perceive some smells to be bad at all? Like, is there a scientific reason behind it?

Went to check it out for you, because this is a neuroscience question and found this article to answer your question. I also know that a sense of smell is somewhat loosely linked with mating choices - click here for a less scientific article.
