How do I tell my girlfriend that her vagina smells bad?

I'll preface this by saying she is absolutely amazing in every way, always giving and enthusiastic, and we love spending quality time together. Also, I should note that I'm the kind of guy who doesn't really care about body odor, and I have never complained about a woman's genitals, but this is a little strange and I don't want to hurt her feelings.<br><br>I've been sexually active for a long time, so I have a baseline for what is considered "normal" in this area, and I've noticed that my girlfriend's vagina has a weirdly strong smell. It doesn't smell like the normal vagina smell - its very strong and unpleasant for me. I have tried to ignore it but it is starting to bother me more and more, and I want nothing more than to find a solution to this quickly and without hurting her.<br><br>However, I don't know how to approach this. I don't want to just tell her "your pussy stinks, wash yourself more", but I don't want to lie to her either. How can I bring this up without being brutish, yet still be straightforward?<br><br>Also, I want to add that we're both in our mid 30s and the issue has persisted for a while, and she has not seemed to have any other noticeable body odor issues (she showers regularly, is very hygenic and takes care of herself), so I don't know how to frame the issue without putting her on the defense.
