I don't know what the fuss is about. After a few weeks of use I just throw it all in the washing machine with a soap (e.g. Dreft) rather than a detergent, and wash at 30 degrees. If it can't handle getting wet at less than body temperature, then it's not much good 
Then dry the stuff out as best you can overnight when in use.
Even my motocross/Enduro boots, which get REALLY wet aren't that whiffy, and they don't get washed in that manner, just dried properly, and regularly.

Timbobaggins, Oh I can do MUCH better than that . . .
Undies washed in Arial Bio full strenth, machine didn't rinse, dried and worn a week later for a loooong bike ride . . . at about 20miles out things started to tingle.
It was two weeks before the last scab fell off ma' plums. At the worst they looked like a burnt scotch egg.

Sounds like my 21st birthday bash when the lads decided it would be good fun to put Fairy liquid down my undies, which I then slept in. Boy did it take skin off....

Just wear that expensive merino, it's great, just as a baselyer and the rest of your stuff and yourself won't stink. If it really is an issue that you smell then you can afford it!

Can someone explain this washing and changing and deodorising thing? Why is it wrong for me to take 3 pairs of underwear and socks for a week?
1 pair worn on way out wash on arrival and change into pair 2. Save clean pair in case of urgent requirement (*)
On final day change into pair 3.
Arrive home wash all pairs.
(*) urgent requirement includes offer of sexual favours or extreme bowel evacuations issues.

Masque, I don't really understand why you are trying not to smell. That way by day three you are the only person who doesn't smell. That's a bad place to be.
The boys trips have established some good rules. On day 1 (i.e. when you leave to get a flight) you get into your onesie. On the last day (i.e. when you get home) you take it off. You can ski in a onesie. You can dance in a onesie. You can sleep in a onesie. Why would you take it off?

Masque, I can confirm that the onesie-laden boys trips are not designed for snowPussy - they are purely for practical purposes. But it is nice to think we still qualify as adolescents

Pedantica, each to her or his own . . . though I only use nature's scents to work with and try very hard to be subtle . . . though I've one that'd not be out of place in One Thousand and One Nights . . . very oriental and very rich

Masque,
Now yer talkin'!  Actually, there's no logic to my not liking cologne on men - I wear the scent that I have worn (exclusively) since I was in my 20s and feel naked without it*. No real reason why there should be one rule for women and another for men, in that regard.
*But I do try and remember not to put any on if I have the chance to taste fine wines.

Pedantica, What you doin' up at this time of night? Actually my favourite is a cologne from the 30s by Guerlain and very hard to find now so we both appreciate past skills with scents. I hate the chemistry set stinks we're pummeled with today. Have fun lass and BTW . . . I'm counting backward now

Pedantica, Guerlain was the best 'nose' in the business before Channel made that synthetic crap No5 and ruined the industry. 
Guerlain still produce limited edition legacy batches and if you write to them they will add you to a mailing list to buy into the batch . . . not cheap but few things made with just human senses are.

Pedantica, classy! that's quite a complex one and IIR quite expensive . . . hyacinth, vetiver (my fav) and sandalwood. It's the choice of a friend of mine too . . . with a little change to the mix it would work for a man.

Masque, a tad, perhaps. And I really do prefer the smell of very clean, unscented bloke - but, as you say, each to her own.
Google tells me that Creed is a brand of smelly. I'd never heard of it either.
