Made for the odor that comes with age, the kind regular soap barely touches.

Real soap is made from oil and lye and sits at pH 9–10. At that pH, persimmon tannin suffers "substantial chemical degradation" in lab testing. Miori is a non-soap wash at pH 5.0, where the tannin stays stable and active.
Two pumps. Work it into the back of the neck, behind the ears, chest and upper back. Leave it 30 seconds, then rinse. Every day.

Most persimmon products are soap bars. That's exactly why they don't work.
To stay solid, a soap bar sits at pH 9 to 10.
In lab testing, persimmon soap bars "showed little or no measurable persimmon-tannin deodorizing activity."
It cleans and lathers like soap, but it's made at pH 5.0, where persimmon stays active.
Miori
Persimmon soap
I've bought three different persimmon bars in two years. I read every label, paid $25 a bar, and my daughter still pulled back a little when she hugged me. I'd decided it was just me. When I read that soap's pH breaks the persimmon down, I felt stupid and relieved at the same time. Six weeks on Miori and she said, without me asking, “You smell nice, Mom.” I sat in the car and cried.

I was never going to tell my husband of 41 years that he smelled. I put the plain pump bottle where his old body wash was and said nothing. He hasn't noticed a thing. I have. About a month in, he hugged me after his shower and it was just him again.
Barbara, 73
My biggest worry was that it would smell like the problem. It doesn't. It's a clean, fresh persimmon scent that fades to almost nothing after an hour. It doesn't fight my perfume, and it doesn't smell like nothing either, which with the last one made me think it wasn't doing anything.
Janet, 71
Honestly, I can't tell on my own. Nobody can smell themselves. So I did what the page said and asked my sister straight out at day 30. She said, “What smell?” That's good enough for me. One star off only because I wish there were a way to know without asking someone.

On a fixed income I don't spend $40 on soap lightly. It works out to about a dollar a day, and I was spending more than that on bars that melted and didn't work. This one does both jobs: it lasts and it works.

Ingredients are listed by amount. Every one is there for a reason.
Carries every other ingredient so the wash spreads evenly.
Cleans without soap, so the wash stays at pH 5.0 and the persimmon keeps working.
Its tannin neutralizes 2-nonenal, the odor compound that builds up with age.
Keeps the lather soft and mild, even with daily use.
Holds moisture in the skin while you wash.
Soothes dry, easily irritated skin, so it stays comfortable every day.
Most people rinse too soon. Give it 30 seconds.
You noticed, and you'd rather not say it out loud. You don't have to.
The 60- and 120-day supplies come with a plain, unbranded bottle. In the shower, it's just body wash.
A plain box. Nothing on it says what's inside.

John, 55
VerifiedWith my last persimmon wash, the pump broke in the first week and I was pouring a $30 bottle into my hand. This one is solid. I'm on bottle four and it still pumps clean every morning, no dribbling, no sticking.
Miori customer
VerifiedI judge a body wash by how it feels in my hand. The last one was like coloured water and I was sure they'd diluted it. Miori is thick, it lathers on a washcloth, and two pumps really is enough. You can tell there's something in it.

Jane, 74
VerifiedAt my age my skin cracks every winter. The persimmon bar left me tight and itchy and I'd given up on it. This one doesn't. My skin feels the same after the shower as before, maybe softer. No film, no itch, no rash.
Jules, 68
VerifiedMy last bar shrank to the size of a quarter in twelve days, and I kept it dry. One Miori bottle lasts me fifteen days to the day, two pumps every morning. Worked out to about a dollar a day, which is less than I was throwing away on melting bars.

VerifiedI've been burned by the miracle soaps from the internet. Before I ordered, I read the lab results and checked the label, and I took the 60-day option because of the guarantee, fully expecting to ask for my money back. I didn't. I'm on my third delivery.
Lily G, 63
VerifiedAfter the last brand, I check every ingredient list. On the one I had, persimmon wasn't even listed. Miori's label is short, persimmon is third, and it says where it's from. That's the first time I've trusted one of these before even trying it.
Annie, 45
VerifiedDad is 81 and proud, and Mum used to handle things like this. I set up the 60-day refill to his address. A plain box turns up every two months and he thinks it's just his body wash. He's back at Sunday lunch at our place, and my kids sit right next to him.
Bella, 62
VerifiedI don't think I have it. But I'd never know, would I? So I switched my body wash the way I'd wear sunscreen. Eight months in, nobody has ever said a word, and it's a body wash I'd buy for the feel anyway.
Metha, 65
VerifiedEvery other product for this made me feel like a walking problem. This just feels like a good body wash. The bottle is pretty enough to leave in the guest bathroom, and nothing on it says "old" anywhere.
Talia, 70
VerifiedI'm on my fifth delivery and it's identical: same thickness, same scent, same bottle. Another brand quietly watered theirs down and shrank the bottle once I was hooked. This hasn't changed one bit.
Jennifer, 67
VerifiedI was travelling for six weeks and paused my delivery in one click. No phone call, no being talked out of it. That's exactly why I trust them enough to keep it going.
Jeff B, 76
VerifiedI can't reach my back well any more and I don't like standing in the shower long. One hand on the pump, two pumps on a washcloth, done. The bottle doesn't slip out of wet hands.
Alice, 70
VerifiedMy granddaughter used to sit at the other end of the sofa. I told myself it was her age. A couple of months into Miori she's curled up next to me for movie night again. Maybe that's a coincidence. I'm not taking the chance of stopping.
Alison, 72
VerifiedThe bottle was smaller than I pictured from the website. But it does last fifteen days like they say, and the price per day is fair. I'd still love a big refill pouch for the plain pump bottle.
Tobi V, 74
VerifiedI asked my wife straight out and she admitted she'd noticed for a while. Hard to hear. I ordered it myself, no fuss. It's a proper body wash, nothing flowery, and a month later she says it's gone.
