After 40, skin makes an oily compound called 2-nonenal. It clings to skin and fabric, and you can't smell it on yourself.
Yuami is made with kakishibu, the tannin of green persimmons. It grabs that stale smell so it rinses away with the lather, instead of being covered for an hour.
How it works

Most persimmon soaps show you a sweet, ripe orange fruit. But the tannin that catches odor is strongest before the fruit ripens.
Ours comes from Tennou persimmons in Minamiyamashiro, Kyoto, picked green every summer, then made into soap in two small batches a year.

“I missed feeling like myself. Even after a shower, I noticed a smell that wasn’t familiar. Now I feel comfortable leaning in close to my husband again. That little everyday thing means so much.”
Yuami tester
“I showered every day and wore clean clothes, so I couldn’t understand why I still noticed that smell. I was doubtful about trying another soap. The biggest relief was stepping out of the shower and finally feeling fresh.”
Yuami tester
“Whenever my grandchildren hugged me, I caught myself wondering if they could smell something. I wanted to enjoy being close to them without that thought getting in the way. Feeling comfortable again has been such a relief.”
Yuami tester
“I wanted to help my mom, but I didn’t know how to bring it up without hurting her feelings. I gave her the soap as a little gift for her shower. She enjoys using it, and I’ve noticed she smells fresher when we hug.”
Yuami tester
“I hesitated over the price. I’d already tried different soaps and didn’t want another one sitting unused in the shower. What makes it worth it to me is feeling comfortable close to people again. I spend less time worrying about it.”
