FAQ
Q: What is aging odor, and is it even real?
A: Aging odor, or “nonenal odor,” is a unique smell linked to aging skin. It’s not a myth—scientific studies have confirmed that as we age, our bodies produce a compound called nonenal, which can cause this distinctive odor.
Q: Does everyone get aging odor as they get older?
A: Not everyone will experience aging odor to the same degree. The presence and intensity of nonenal depend on factors like genetics, diet, and lifestyle. However, it is common enough that many people notice it, particularly in warm or humid environments.
Q: I haven’t noticed any odor. Is this really something to be concerned about?
A: Some people may not notice it because nonenal odor can be subtle and not as obvious to everyone. However, it may be noticeable to those around us, especially in warmer or more humid environments.
Why do older people have a different body odor?
A: As we age, our skin produces more nonenal, a compound that has a slightly musty or grassy odor. It occurs naturally due to oxidative processes in the skin. It’s a normal part of aging, but there are ways to manage it.
Can nonenal odor be eliminated, or do I just have to live with it?
A: You don’t have to live with it! While nonenal is natural, using specific cleansing products and keeping good hygiene can help manage and reduce the odor effectively.
How does persimmon soap work compared to regular soap?
A: Persimmon soap contains tannins that specifically target and neutralize nonenal, the compound responsible for aging odor. Regular soap doesn’t have these active ingredients and may not be as effective in eliminating the odor.
