Where to Buy Persimmon Soap in Greece: An Honest Guide

Looking for persimmon soap in Greece (in Greek, "σαπούνι λωτού")? On the shops we could check, we did not find a persimmon soap on sale, and most shops we could not check at all. This guide shows what we saw, what we could not see, and how to judge a persimmon soap before you buy. If you are curious about the background, read our article on nonenal and the "older person smell".

How we checked

On 8 November 2026 we ran web searches limited to each shop's site for "σαπούνι λωτού" and "persimmon soap", and we tried to open each shop's own search page. We did not visit any stores, and ranges change. The site-limited web searches mostly returned no pages from the shops themselves, so they prove very little. Where a shop blocked us, we stopped there and did not try to get around it.

Pharmacies and chain stores

• Hondos Center: could not check. Its own search was blocked (403) and the web search returned no pages from the site.
• Sephora.gr: could not check. Its own search was blocked (403) and the web search returned no pages from the site.
• Notino.gr: could not check. Its own search was blocked (403) and the web search returned no pages from the site.
• Pharm24: the page loaded, but we could only read menu items (a bar soaps category and Apivita soaps) and no product results, so we cannot say either way.
• Galinos: this is a medicines and health reference site rather than a shop. Its search showed nothing relevant and we could not check it as a retailer.

Marketplaces and online shops

Skroutz: its own search was blocked (403). A web search limited to the site showed ordinary soaps (olive oil, glycerin, lemon) and no persimmon soap in the results shown, but that is not a check of the site's own search. Amazon.de: could not check. Its search page was unavailable to us (503), and the web search showed no Amazon listing. Searches did show persimmon soaps from other sellers, for example Japanese bars on eBay.de. We only saw them in search results and did not check their ingredients, so we make no claim about them.

Three short warnings when you shop online:

• Not every "persimmon soap" contains persimmon. Check the ingredient list for Diospyros kaki.
• Check who sells the soap and where it ships from.
• Be wary of big promises. Soap is a cosmetic, and a cosmetic cannot treat anything.

How much it costs

Compare the price per bar including delivery. One bar lasts about two weeks with daily use. With KAKIORA that works out at about €0.80 to €1.37 a day, or from about €0.69 with a subscription. The 6-bar pack is €11.24 per bar (€67.45 for six, plus €3 delivery once), and the 6-bar subscription is about €9.67 per bar with free delivery.

Does it work?

Persimmon soap is a gentle way to wash, and many people simply enjoy it as part of a daily routine. Results vary, so read does persimmon soap really work and our persimmon soap guide.

Summary

On 8 November 2026 we could not confirm persimmon soap at any of the Greek shops listed, because most blocked us or showed nothing readable. That is not proof that none exists. Check for Diospyros kaki on the ingredient list, and compare the real price per bar with delivery. KAKIORA is available directly from our product page.
