How do I know if I have Nonenal? 

Nonenal typically begins developing after age 40. If you've noticed a faint musty or grassy scent that doesn't go away even after showering, that's likely nonenal — not a hygiene issue. It's a natural byproduct of aging skin chemistry that regular soap cannot remove.

How quickly will I see results?

Many customers notice the difference after just one use. The persimmon tannins work quickly to help neutralize nonenal on contact.

 

For best results, use Persea consistently. Many people report feeling fresher and more confident within 1–3 days.

 

Unlike regular soap that only cleans the surface or masks odor with fragrance, Persea is designed to help break down the odor-causing compounds linked to age-related body odor.

Will this dry out my skin?

Actually, the opposite. Persea was made to cleanse without leaving mature skin feeling dry, tight, or stripped.

 

Our formula includes coconut oil, shea butter, glycerin, olive oil, vitamin E, and sorbitol — skin-supporting ingredients that help keep your skin feeling soft, comfortable, and cared for while you wash.

 

Many regular soaps can feel harsh on mature skin, especially with daily use. Persea is designed to target odor while still feeling gentle enough for everyday cleansing.

Why is it more expensive than regular soaps?

Real persimmon extract at effective concentrations is costly to source and process. Combined with skincare-grade Shea Butter, Glycerin, and Vitamin E, you're getting a premium formula — not a fragrance-masked bar. At around 50 cents a day, customers tell us it's one of the best investments in their personal care.

THE SCIENCE

Why Regular Soap 
Can't Fix This

After age 40, your body begins producing an oil-based compound called 2-nonenal — the true source of what people call "aging odor." It's not about hygiene. It's biology. And because nonenal is oil-based, regular soap and water simply cannot break it down, no matter how hard you scrub.

 

Persimmon tannins are the only natural ingredient proven to chemically neutralize nonenal at the molecular level. Think of it like trying to wash grease off a pan with just water — you can scrub all day and the grease clings. You need a degreaser. That's exactly what persimmon tannins do to aging odor.

 

Persea uses a high concentration of authentic Japanese persimmon extract — combined with green tea antioxidants, coconut oil, shea butter, glycerin, olive oil, vitamin E, and sorbitol — to help target odor at the source while leaving your skin feeling softer, more comfortable, and more cared for with every wash.

How To Use

5 key areas for
maximum freshness

For best results, use Persea daily and focus on the areas where nonenal accumulates most. Consistent use builds lasting freshness.

STEP 1

Back of the Neck

  • Nonenal is most concentrated here. Cleanse thoroughly every shower — this is where the difference is most noticeable.

STEP 2

Behind the Ears

  • A commonly missed area where odor-causing compounds build up. A few seconds here makes a significant difference.

STEP 3

Chest & Torso

  • Lather generously across the chest and torso. The rich foam works into skin to neutralize nonenal across larger surface areas.

STEP 4

Underarms

  • Unlike regular soap that masks odor temporarily, Persea persimmon tannins break down the compounds causing odor at the source.

STEP 5

Arms & Legs

  • Nonenal is secreted through skin oils across the entire body. Full-body use ensures complete, lasting freshness throughout the day.

How to use:

Lather Persea daily on the neck, ears, chest, underarms, and full body. Let lather sit 20–30 seconds before rinsing for maximum odor neutralization.

How We Compare

Persea vs Other
Cleansing Options

Not all soaps are made for the same kind of odor.

Most body washes are designed to leave you smelling fragranced after a shower. Persea was made for something more specific: helping target nonenal-related odor while still feeling gentle on mature skin.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key ingredients and why were they chosen?

Every ingredient in Persea was selected with a clear purpose — to cleanse, refresh, deodorize, and keep skin feeling comfortable.

 

Persimmon Extract helps target age-related odor and supports a fresher, cleaner feel. Green Tea Extract brings antioxidant-rich botanical care to help refresh and comfort the skin. Coconut Oil and Olive Oil support a gentle cleanse while helping skin feel soft and nourished. Shea Butter replenishes moisture and supports a smoother, more supple feel. Glycerin and Sorbitol act as humectants, helping draw moisture into the skin so it does not feel tight or dry after washing. Vitamin E provides antioxidant support and helps keep the skin feeling soft and conditioned.

 

The formula also includes Lauramidopropyl Betaine to create a mild, satisfying lather, Nonenol Solution to support the soap’s deodorizing function, Water to help form the base of the formula, and Sodium Hydroxide, which is used in traditional soap-making to transform oils into a solid cleansing bar.

 

A botanical deodorizing soap made with skin-softening oils, moisture-supporting humectants, and targeted freshness ingredients — with no synthetic fragrance and no unnecessary fillers.

What's Included with my order?

Your order includes the soap bar plus a soft mesh foaming pouch. The pouch helps create a creamy lather, makes the bar easier to hold, and helps the soap last longer by keeping it ventilated between uses.

How do I know if I have nonenal?

Nonenal is a natural compound created when skin oils oxidize — characterized by a greasy or musty smell. It typically begins after age 40 when your skin's antioxidant levels decline due to hormonal changes. You may notice it on your clothing, bedding, or in a room you've been in. It's not a hygiene issue — it's biology, and regular soap cannot address it.

How quickly will I see results?

Most customers notice the difference after just 1 use. The persimmon tannins work immediately to neutralize nonenal on contact. Unlike regular soap that only cleans the surface, Persea actually breaks down the odor-causing compounds. For lasting results, use consistently — many report feeling fresher and more confident within 1–3 days.

Why is it more expensive than regular soap?

The cost reflects the quality of what's inside. Sourcing persimmon extract at a concentration that is clinically meaningful — not merely cosmetic — is significantly more expensive than using fragrance to mask odor. Persea also includes pharmaceutical-grade glycerin, unrefined shea butter, and vitamin E, ingredients more commonly found in premium facial care than in body cleansers. Each bar is formulated to perform, not just to smell pleasant. At roughly fifty cents per use, it is a considered investment in daily wellbeing.

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

Yes. Persea is free from sulfates, parabens, and synthetic fragrances. Coconut oil, olive oil, shea butter, glycerin, vitamin E, and sorbitol help support a gentle cleanse so mature skin feels soft, comfortable, and cared for after washing. The formula is gentle enough for daily use on all skin types, including dry or sensitive-feeling skin.

Does it have a strong fragrance?

No. Persea is fragrance-free. It has a very mild, natural scent from the persimmon and green tea extracts. It won't compete with your perfume or cologne — many customers describe it as simply 'clean' and 'fresh.' This is by design: masking odor with fragrance is not the same as eliminating it.

How long does each bar last?

Each bar lasts approximately 4 weeks with daily use — the perfect amount of time to maintain consistent freshness and odor protection. For maximum longevity, store in a well-draining soap dish and allow to dry completely between uses.

Will this dry out my skin?

Actually, the opposite. Our formula contains coconut oil, olive oil, shea butter, glycerin, vitamin E, and sorbitol — skin-supporting ingredients chosen to help cleanse without leaving mature skin feeling dry, tight, or stripped.

Most soaps can leave skin feeling uncomfortable after washing. Persea is designed to cleanse, refresh, and help skin feel soft, comfortable, and cared for.

Many customers tell us their skin feels softer and more comfortable with daily use.
