Not sure which scent?
Start with Unscented. It leaves nothing behind at all, which is the point — and it suits reactive skin.
Before you ask
Before you decide
I already shower every day. Why would this be different?
Nonenal is an oxidised skin lipid, not dirt, so ordinary soap has nothing to grab it with. Washing more often does not shift it — binding it does.
How do I know this is even my problem?
The tell is where the smell lives. If it is on your collar and your pillowcase rather than on your skin, and it is worse in the morning than after the gym, that is the signature. Stronger deodorant not working is the other clue.
Am I signing up for a subscription?
No. It is a one-time purchase. We do not run auto-ship and we do not store your card for a future charge.

Persimmon sourced in Japan
No aluminium or parabens
Why ordinary soap stops working
The smell is a compound, not a hygiene problem
From around your forties, skin produces more of an aldehyde called nonenal. It clings to fabric and skin, and soap built for surface dirt slides straight past it.
-
It is not sweat
Sweat is nearly odourless on its own. Nonenal forms when skin lipids oxidise, which is why washing harder does not fix it.
-
Deodorant sits on top
Antiperspirant blocks moisture and fragrance covers what is left. Neither removes the compound from your skin.
-
Tannin binds it
Persimmon tannin attaches to the odour molecule and holds on, so it leaves with the lather instead of staying behind.
-
You rinse, it is gone
Thirty seconds of lather on the right areas. No spray, no reapplying at lunchtime.

What is in the bar
Four ingredients doing the work
A short list is a decision, not a shortcut. Every gram spent on a fifth active is a gram not spent on the tannin that does the job.
緑茶
Green tea extract
Catechins that calm the skin and slow the oxidation odour starts with.
椿油
Camellia seed oil
A light oil used in Japan for centuries. Keeps the bar from stripping skin that is already dry.
海塩
Sea salt
Draws out surface residue and gives the lather enough grip to actually clean.
Thirty seconds, five places
Wash where the odour actually forms
Nonenal collects on sebum-rich skin, which is rarely where people scrub. Lather, leave it for twenty seconds, rinse.
-
1
Behind the ears
Dense in sebaceous glands and almost never washed properly. Start here.
-
2
Back of the neck
Where collars pick it up first. Work the lather right down to the hairline.
-
3
Chest and décolleté
Sebum-rich, and it transfers straight onto the front of your shirt.
-
4
Underarms
Wash here before deodorant, not instead of it, if you still want one.
-
5
Upper back
The spot you cannot reach is the spot other people stand behind.
Pro tip
The back of the neck and behind the ears matter most, and they are the two spots almost everyone skips. Give them the full twenty seconds before you rinse.
What to expect
It is not instant, and that is the point
You are removing something that has been building up, not spraying over it. Give the bar a fortnight of daily use before you judge it.
Day one
Clean, not perfumed
Skin feels squeaky rather than coated. The unscented bar leaves nothing behind at all.
Week one
Shirts stay fresher
The first thing most people notice is not their skin — it is that yesterday's collar smells like nothing.
Month one
You stop thinking about it
Buildup is gone rather than managed, so the anxious mid-afternoon check goes with it.
Individual experience varies. This is a cosmetic product and is not intended to treat any medical condition.
No risk
Use the whole bar. If it does nothing, we refund it.
Wash with it daily for sixty days. If the people around you notice no difference, email us and we refund the order — you keep what is left of the bar. No sealed-packaging clause, no return required. We would rather lose the sale than argue about it.
Before you ask
Questions we get every week
How do I know nonenal is my problem?
The usual sign is that the smell is on your clothes and pillowcase rather than on your skin, and it is worse in the morning than after exercise. It also tends not to respond to stronger deodorant, because deodorant was never aimed at it.
Can I use it on my whole body?
Yes. It is a normal bar soap and safe head to toe. The five areas in the diagram above are simply where the compound concentrates, so that is where the thirty seconds pays off.
How long does one bar last?
About a month of daily washing. Keep it on a draining dish — a bar sitting in water disappears in half the time.
Is it safe for sensitive skin?
The unscented bar is formulated for reactive and mature skin, with no added fragrance or dye. Patch test on your inner forearm for two days if you react to things. If you have a diagnosed skin condition, ask your doctor before changing what you wash with.
Will I smell like perfume?
No. Unscented leaves nothing behind. Lavender and yuzu are light enough to fade within about twenty minutes — they are there for the shower, not to be your fragrance.
Can I still wear deodorant?
Yes. Wash with the bar, dry, then apply whatever you normally use. The two are doing different jobs.
What is the full ingredient list?
Add your final INCI list here, exactly as it appears on the carton, once your manufacturer confirms it.
What if it does not work for me?
Email us within sixty days and we refund the order. You do not need to send the bar back, and it does not need to be unused.
