Mirai Clinical Persimmon Soap for Old People Smell,Nonenal® Odor Eliminator

This stuff is amazing. I am in my 40’s now and heard of a thing called nonenal. I didn’t know this existed and it freaked me out. If you don’t know what nonenal is, it’s basically just “old person” smell. We all know that smell. Just think of your grandparents house when you first walk in after not being there in a while. Apparently, nonenal is oils that oxidize and can’t be removed by normal soap. At least that’s my understanding and since it doesn’t get broken down it transfers to clothing, furniture, etc. Anything our bodies come into contact with. Now, we all know that we are the last ones able to smell our own funk but everyone around us can smell it just fine. And what I read it says that nonenal starts in your 40’s. See why I was freaked out now? But I am also going through perimenopause and am paranoid that I smell different because of the hormonal shift. This soap is supposed to be able to break down the greases that cause “old person” smell and also help deodorize hormonal smell too. So I thought I would give it a try. They show you the areas of your body where the smells come from. One of which is behind the ears and back of the neck. I would have never guessed that those areas caused the smell. But I think it’s fair to say that we all know how behind the ears can get real funky if they aren’t washed regularly. Now get ready because I am going to get slightly gross for a minute. I rubbed my finger behind both my ears and smelled and yeah, it wasn’t great, even though I just washed that morning. So I gave the soap a shot and in particular focused on behind the ears. The result were pretty remarkable. I washed behind my ears on day one and then didn’t do it again for 3 days. Constantly smelling that area each day. The smell stayed gone for 2 days and by about the 3rd day it was starting to become slightly noticeable. That made me a believer. So I started using it in all the places the nonenal is at. I start by washing my entire body with regular soap and then at the end of my shower I use this soap in all the places they teach you that nonenal shows up. I have to say that I feel much more confident about how I smell after using it. No one wants to go through hormonal changes but we all have to. At least now we can be more comfortable in our skin while we go through it. I know it’s very expensive for a soap. But it is worth it. And if you only use it on the parts of the body that the nonenal smell comes from you won’t have to buy it again for a couple of months. Lastly, you need to be aware of the many knock offs that are out there. Be careful not to buy a soap that claims to do the same thing for a cheaper price. As far as I know, this is the only brand sold in the U.S. that actually has the ingredients in it that helps with the smell. So only buy this brand and even then be careful that you aren’t being sold a bootleg. It needs to come from Mirai. Even here on Amazon, you need to make sure you buy it from the Mirai store. It would really suck to pay this much for a soap that never worked. All that being said, I know I am not going to be without it, but that’s just me. Hope this long winded review helps.

It lathers well. There were negative comments about the smell. Yes, there is a mild scent while lathering it. However, the scent does not stay on the skin. It’s gone as soon as you rinse it off. I am not elderly and do not have body odor so, I cannot tell you if it works to help with that. I bought it because I heard it was mild. I have sensitive skin. I have no skin irritation from it.

Loving this product so far! Great scent and lather, leaves skin soft and not dry. Arrived quickly. Good buy!

Smell pleasant, lathers well, non-drying, and lasts for a long time. Price is high but it seems to be effective in mitigating personal odors. Size small for the cost; would have liked the option to purchase more than one bar for a reduced per item cost.

I received my soap today just like they said . I waited until I was through doing my errands and cleaning some things out of a cery hot storage unit and waiting after school for my granddaughter to finish her tutoring class and then I came home and used this soap I just got wet and lathered the soap in my hand no puff no anything just hand to skin . I washed my face with it and all the areas instructed on the package and I washed and rinsed my hair with my regular shampoo and conditioner and I toweled dry and got out I did wash my face with this soap also and liked the fact it wasn’t all dry and felt good and smooth to the touch . I like this soap so far and I will keep using it . I will probably purchase again when this one is gone . It’s very easy to just lather up and wash your body I can’t smell anything actually but I feel really clean . My skin is usually very dry after bath but this soap makes my skin feel smooth and moisturized . I didn’t have a reaction to it except I felt really clean and not so dried out after my old soap . I would buy this if you want to feel really clean and fresh and not all dry from regular soap . I give this soap a ten .

It really works! I'm a 75 young women and noticed the old person smell quite strongly this hot summer. Not ordinary sweat body odor! When my daughter told me that I must have forgot to put deodorant on, I knew I had to make a change! I read a lot about persimmon soap and decided to give it a try! Its wonderful, no more smell & I always feel fresh & clean! My skin feels soft & subtle too! Thank you for a great product!

Took off a star because of the price but I really like this soap. My skin feels really clean without feeling dry. Love the lather it produces. I bought a scrub mitt to use with it and it works well to keep my skin soft l. Nice clean scent..nothing overpowering

I read the reviews before buying and am really happy with this product. I don’t know if I was experiencing ‘old person smell’ but I’m perimenopausal and did notice that my body odor had changed in a way I didn’t appreciate. This works beautifully without being perfumey or overpowering. I just smell clean. Others commented it is too small a bar but it seems reasonably sized to me and doesn’t wear down overly fast. I haven’t noticed any irritation or dry skin using it. Overall does what it says it is going to do and does it well.

Ist nicht nur für alte Menschen gut. Riecht sehr zart. Tolles Hautgefühl

Moisturising and effective. It is quite expensive but going for cheaper imitations is not worth it

Expensive but it produced the result, no more nasty smell!! I am 80 and had never heard of NONENAL

This soap works as described. I like it very much.

Nice soap, lathers well, leaves you squeaky clean and is scent free. BUT, it only lasted me two weeks and that is only having one shower a day. I cannot justify paying £20 for a bar of soap every two weeks. Nice product, but far too expensive. I shall be trying the cheaper brands next.
