Good things come in threes.
This set of 3 cubes in ascending sizes looks great stacked up next to your sink. Opt for either Olive (the traditional recipe, strongly scented with olive oil notes) or Végétal (for a lighter tone and scent).

Lovely soap, but....
I really do love this soap, but I wish I would have paid attention to how very big the largest cube is, because I literally have no place to put it, and additionally it will be extremely hard to handle. Regardless I do plan to keep the trio and will come up with a solution for the enormous one.
Versatile Product
I transited over to the Marseille Soap a few months ago to reduce the amount of plastic I am using around the house. I'm glad I made the change. It's made a difference in my kitchen and bathroom. I use the soap in a variation of ways: dishes, stains on my clothes and also for bathing. For some folks that are not familiar with it, it does have a strong scent that can be overpowering. However, if you are use to the smell from the shops in France, you will get use to it. :)
The soap goes a long way and I've used the large cube for 2 months now.
So much more than just soap
Cleans and shines pots and pans- cleans sinks better than an abrasive and cleans eyeglasses better than any product I’ve tried. Plus it’s a lovely soap!
