I've often wondered how to raise the subject with him without offending

I'd suggest an anonymous letter, assuming your workplace
employs more people than just the two of you. Get in earlier
than he does (which, if he's getting in at 10, shouldn't be
too tough!) and leave a sealed note on his desk on plain
paper with no distinguishing attributes explaining the
problem politely.
Those in the US can send a letter package through
http://www.thepayback.com. They'll send either a
naughty or nice letter combined with appropriate
solutions to the problem (e.g., for body odor they
enclose soap and deodorant.
NOTE - No, I've never used them! I just remember reading
about such a service and googled to get the details :->
