A more serious soap.
Cook as the French do, and clean as the French do. This is a take on the traditional Savon De Marseille soaps -- these huge chunks of soap are intended to be left on the counter and just rubbed to pick up soap, rather than picking it up and using it the way you would a traditional bar of soap.

The other ingredients, like oils and scents, are all sourced sustainably, and whenever possible, locally. We can't help but be abuzz with telling everyone how great they are.

Great Product - Replaced sponges for me
Very nice. My partner and I have been using these heavily for everything from eggy pans to baked on chili to delicate stemware for the past few weeks. They have completely replaced sponges for us.
The best part, for me, is how easy it is to clean the brushes themselves. Nothing really sticks to them. It's great.
gorgeous
Smells perfect, not that strong chemical lavendar odor, and gentle on the hands. Let it sit on a few stones in a soap dish (to aerate it) and rub your hand or a brush over the surface.
Love this soap!
