I'm 67 and don't think I have the smell yet but I vividly remember it from my grandmother's house and her couch. I started using Zyra as a precaution. My daughter says I smell wonderful, and I have total peace of mind now.
Made with Japanese persimmon (kaki) extract in a gentle bar, to help rinse away oily aging odor before it builds up on skin, clothes and fabrics.
Results vary, and the fabric tells the story first. Use it daily on the neck, chest, upper back and behind the ears, then check your pillowcase, collars and favorite chair.
Give it at least two weeks of daily use before judging. Unlike regular soap that mostly rinses off surface dirt, this bar pairs persimmon extract, long used in Japan for odor care, with a gentle cleansing base made to wash off oily residue.
If you're not happy, you're covered by our 30-day money-back guarantee.
Each bar lasts approximately 4 weeks with daily use, though that varies with storage conditions and usage habits.
For maximum longevity, store it in a well-draining soap dish and let it dry completely between uses.
It's made to be gentle. The base includes coconut oil, hyaluronic acid and hydrolyzed collagen, ingredients commonly used in skincare to help moisturize while you cleanse.
Everyone's skin is different, so if yours is sensitive, patch test before first use.
Real persimmon extract costs more to source than fragrance. Some low-cost "persimmon soaps" rely more on scent than on real extract, so check the ingredient list for persimmon (Diospyros kaki) extract.
On top of that, the bar includes skincare-style ingredients like hyaluronic acid and hydrolyzed collagen, designed to leave skin feeling soft while it cleanses.
And if it isn't for you, your order is backed by our 30-day money-back guarantee.
As skin ages, it produces an oil-based compound called 2-nonenal, often linked to "aging odor." Because it's oil-based, regular soap and water can struggle to break it down, no matter how hard you scrub.
Persimmon extract has long been used in Japan for this kind of odor care. That's the idea behind every bar of ZYRA.
Think of it like trying to wash grease off a pan with just water. You can scrub all day, the grease clings. You need a degreaser. That's what this bar is built to be.

I'm 67 and don't think I have the smell yet but I vividly remember it from my grandmother's house and her couch. I started using Zyra as a precaution. My daughter says I smell wonderful, and I have total peace of mind now.
I absolutely love this soap, it is worth every cent. I thought my partner would be sceptical but he really likes it too. Since using this soap our clothes and bedding and house just smell fresh. No matter how many times I did laundry before, nothing got rid of 'that' smell, until we started using the persimmon soap. Who knew it would be so simple.
I've tried MANY brands of persimmon soap. This is a LEGIT product. It smells great when you're using it, not so with other brands I've bought. Plus, this actually lathers well. The other brands don't.
My husband showers every single day, but he was starting to smell like an old man. I didn't know how to tell him. I just quietly switched his soap to Zyra. The smell is completely gone and he says his skin feels better than it has in years.
A bar that washes off oily residue shouldn't leave skin tight and dry. So the persimmon extract and green tea sit in a base of coconut oil, hyaluronic acid and hydrolyzed collagen.
The goal? Fresher fabric and comfortable skin. Individual results vary.
