What do you do when a co-worker smells?

On one hand, I would like to go to them and say, "Hey, X, you smell." But that is rude. It's not like I am close enough to them (location) where I am constantly smelling B.O., but every so often (but often enough so it's an issue) I am near them and - OMILAWDY!

It was suggested to me that I tell their supervisor that this is an issue. Maybe that's what I should do. The only thing is, what if the suuper comes back to say I was the one who told? Then it gets really awkward. See my quandry?

You tell HR. They have to then approach him about it, and its theor job to keep things confidential...so you're safe.
