5 Reasons Women Over 35 Use This Japanese Secret for “Onion Pits”
That sharp, onion-like smell doesn’t come from sweat itself. Skin bacteria break down nearly odorless underarm sweat and release powerful sulfur-like odor compounds.
Luelle Odor Control Bar uses tannin-rich persimmon extract to help wash those odor compounds from your skin, giving your deodorant a clean foundation.
1. Washes off the "3M3SH" that causes onion pit odor
Perfume may mask onion-like underarm odor briefly, while regular soap may not feel like enough once the smell becomes stubborn.
Inspired by Japanese cleansing traditions, Luelle uses tannin-rich persimmon extract to help wash away the stubborn odor caused by 3M3SH—the sulfur-like molecule behind that unmistakable onion-pit smell.
The hardest part about stubborn underarm odor is the doubt it creates. A coworker leans in or a friend goes for a hug, and you wonder whether they notice. Because your nose can get used to the scent, you may not always realize when it returns.
That’s why Luelle is designed to help wash away stubborn, onion-like odor in the shower—so you can hug, lean in, and raise your arms without the secret sniff-check.
It starts with your very first shower. Luelle’s tannin-rich persimmon lather helps cleanse away the sulfur-like odor compounds behind that sharp onion smell.
With consistent use, you’re no longer layering deodorant over odor left sitting on your skin. You’re giving your deodorant a clean foundation.
Luelle's formula goes beyond just persimmon. It's blended with coconut oil. Persimmon tannin grips the nonenal and takes it down the drain. Coconut oil keeps skin soft enough to do it again tomorrow.
No sulfates. No fragrance. Just clean skin that still feels like skin.

Why Your Armpits Can Smell Like Onions; Even After Showering
Hormonal shifts can change the makeup of your sweat, your skin’s pH, and the balance of bacteria under your arms. Sweat itself starts nearly odorless, but when skin bacteria break it down, they can release sulfur-rich compounds called thioalcohols—creating the sharp, onion-like odor.
Persimmon extract is naturally rich in tannins that interact with certain odor compounds, helping Luelle wash away stubborn odor instead of simply covering it with fragrance.
The Japanese-Inspired Cleanse for Stubborn Onion-Like Odor
Fragrance can cover the smell temporarily, but when onion-like odor returns soon after showering, masking it isn’t enough. Drawing on the Japanese use of persimmon extract in deodorizing soaps, Luelle uses tannin-rich persimmon extract to interact with certain odor compounds and help wash stubborn odor from the skin.
So you can step out of the shower feeling genuinely fresh, clean, and comfortable, and get close without second-guessing yourself.
With every wash, Luelle’s rich, creamy lather gently cleanses your underarms and other odor-prone areas, while tannin-rich persimmon extract helps wash away stubborn onion-like odor instead of simply covering it with fragrance. So you leave the shower feeling genuinely fresh, comfortable, and confident—from your morning routine to every close moment that follows.
Frequently asked questions
Is it safe for sensitive skin?
Yes. Our gentle formula is free from harsh chemicals and synthetic fragrances, making it suitable for sensitive and mature skin. The combination of coconut oil and olive oil helps moisturize, support the skin barrier, and soothe dryness or irritation.
Does it have a strong fragrance?
No. The soap has a light, natural persimmon scent. It leaves your skin smelling clean and fresh without being overpowering, so it won’t compete with your perfume or cologne.
What makes it different from regular soap?
Most regular soaps wash away everyday sweat and dirt, yet stubborn onion-like underarm odor can return soon after showering. Luelle uses tannin-rich persimmon extract to interact with certain odor compounds and help wash stubborn odor from the skin—rather than simply covering it with fragrance.
Why do my armpits smell like onions?
The onion-like smell comes from a sulfur-based odor molecule called 3M3SH. Your underarm sweat starts out nearly odorless, but a common skin bacterium called Staphylococcus hominis breaks it down and releases this powerful-smelling molecule. Your nose can detect even tiny amounts of 3M3SH, which is why a little bacterial activity can create such a noticeable onion smell.

I originally bought this soap for myself, but it worked so well that I bought one for my husband too. I’m 62 and he’s 68, and we’ve both noticed a real difference in smell. It leaves us feeling fresh and clean, has a lovely scent, and foams up really well. We’re both very happy with it!
It really works! I'm a 75 young women and noticed the old person smell quite strongly this hot summer. Not ordinary sweat body odor! When my daughter told me that I must have forgot to put deodorant on, I knew I had to make a change! I read a lot about persimmon soap and decided to give it a try! Its wonderful, no more smell & I always feel fresh & clean! My skin feels soft & subtle too! Thank you for a great product!
