Is it normal to like your partner's sweat smell?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes, it’s normal to like your partner’s natural sweat smell. Scent can be part of attraction and familiarity, even when you wouldn’t enjoy the same smell on just anyone.

People can find a partner’s natural scent comforting, sexy, or simply familiar. Your brain can connect their smell with closeness and good feelings, so sweat that might seem unpleasant from someone else can smell appealing on them.

People differ, of course: some love a partner’s natural scent, while others prefer freshly showered. As long as you’re both comfortable with it, there’s nothing weird about enjoying it.
