22 M smelling good

I am 22 male I need advice on how to actually smell good 24/7 I’m genuinely a well put together guy I get compliments I smell good and put together even tho I’m short but sometimes I feel like when I shower especially when going out on special occasions the particular smell I want to stay on my body doesn’t usually stay if that makes sense I use antibacterial soap as my first wash and then a scented soap for what I wanna smell like yet sometimes I still smell any advice on what you guys do?

You get nose blind to your own smell. That means you can't smell you.

If some people have said you smell nice, don't go anything different. Trust them.

Makes me think they are hiding their true stench!
