Products mentioned on Reddit
See which products came up in eight body-odor threads, what readers liked or disliked, and which exact versions were identified.
We counted positive mentions or suggestions in eight selected body-odor threads. Each thread counts once for a product family, even when several people mention it. A thread can include both praise and criticism. These counts show what appeared in this small sample, not the best products across Reddit. Two earlier reader-supplied threads provide extra context and are outside the eight-thread count.
| Product family or category | Threads with positive mentions | What the count means |
|---|---|---|
| The Ordinary glycolic acid toner | 8/8 | Most comments name the brand or toner without its strength. One thread explicitly identifies 7%. It is a leave-on toner, not a wash. |
| Persimmon cleanser category | 7/8 | These mentions cover several brands, scents, bars and liquids. One thread contains a suggestion without a first-hand report. The count is not a Mirai-only total. |
| Lume cleanser family | 6/8 | Three threads clearly name the acidified liquid wash. The other mentions include a bar, an unspecified soap, or a routine with several Lume products. |
| PanOxyl cleanser family | 5/8 | Comments discuss bars, liquid washes and different strengths. One person appears in two threads. The count does not establish a preferred formula. |
| Mirai persimmon cleanser family | 3/8 | Comments often omit the format or scent, and one combines soap and wipes. These mentions do not identify the Unscented bar as a separate winner. |
| Hibiclens | 6/8 | Two threads contain suggestions without first-hand reports. This is an antiseptic skin cleanser, not an intimate wash. |
| Hypochlorous-acid spray category | 4/8 | The discussions do not establish a repeatedly recommended brand. Some reports combine the spray with other products. |
| Dove antibacterial body wash | 1/8 | This is the antibacterial wash. It is different from Dove Sensitive, Ultra Sensitive and deodorant products. |
| Witch hazel | 2/8 | No brand is repeatedly identified. The discussions also include a negative experience. |
| Oral chlorophyll | 1/8 | Reports combine products or omit the brand and formula. They do not establish that chlorophyll reduces odor. |
Mirai Clinical Purifying & Deodorizing Body Wash with Persimmon
Mirai products were positively mentioned in 3 of 8 sampled body-odor threads, plus both historical threads. The liquid and unscented bar are format comparisons, not two separately ranked winners.
Some people in the persimmon-soap discussions describe dryness or irritation. Those reports cover different products, so they do not tell us how this exact liquid formula will feel on your skin.

Lume Acidified Body Wash · Unscented
Lume cleansers were positively mentioned in 6 of 8 sampled body-odor threads. Only 3 explicitly identified acidified liquid body wash; scent and size were often unspecified.
Reddit experiences are mixed, including reports of irritation or no improvement. Unscented is the version compared here, but comments about Lume often leave out the scent and size.

Mirai Clinical Deodorizing Soap with Persimmon · Unscented
Mirai products were positively mentioned in 3 of 8 sampled body-odor threads, plus both historical threads. The liquid and unscented bar are format comparisons, not two separately ranked winners.
Some persimmon-soap users report dryness, burning or a rash. The comments do not always identify the brand or formula. Unscented does not guarantee that a product will suit sensitive skin.

YouTube and X
Accessible YouTube titles, descriptions and selected transcript material were used as context. We have not established an independent cross-platform product ranking. No reliable X consumer-post sample was available. Creator promotions and manufacturer content do not count as independent customer recommendations.
Other products mentioned in the original research
PanOxyl, The Ordinary 7% glycolic acid, hypochlorous sprays, witch hazel, Hibiclens and chlorophyll also came up in the discussions. Their roles, body-area limits and evidence differ. They do not form one routine and should not be combined from social-media anecdotes.
