odor in home we just purchased, bathroom

Just moved into 4 year old home. Notice smell like BO (body odor) in the master bedroom and bath. It is strongest in the bathroom and I think the smell is originating there and spreading into bedroom. Thinking it might be sewer smell or a problem in whirlpool tub, I tried several things. Ran water in shower to make sure trap had water in it. Plugged up vent hole in sink, closed sink drain and ran water in sink (in case that little valve in drain line that stops sewer smell from entering home wasn't working). Put dishwasher soap in whirlpool tub and ran for 30 minutes. None of this has helped. Any ideas? This home has been well maintained and is clean.
