Mostly True

The text states that each person has a unique scent, except for identical twins.

Infact verdict: Mostly True (74/100).

The claims regarding unique scents are supported by evidence indicating that most individuals have distinct scents due to genetic and environmental factors. However, identical twins, while genetically similar, can still have distinguishable scents, as evidenced by studies involving trained dogs. This suggests that while identical twins may have similar scents, they are not identical, supporting the claim that each person has a unique scent.
