B-but how does one bike to work and not smell the whole day?

Biking is much more efficient than walking. You’re not racing places, you’re cruising at a comfortable pace
If you workout frequently enough and build your endurance you perspire less given its not scorching hot outside.
It works better if your workplace has a fitness center with showers. But if not, see if there is a gym nearby that you can join just for the shower usage. You can also leave an extra half hour for your journey, and not work as hard at it. Also, wiping down with alcohol wipes before your journey can prevent bacteria which avoids the smell funk (along with putting your work clothes in your saddle bag, and changing out of your cycling gear once you get to work).
