A scented soap made in Marseille
This soap is made in Marseille by a traditional artisan soapworks holding the EPV label.
The French Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant label recognises businesses with outstanding craft or industrial know-how. Here, it clearly identifies the manufacturing background of the product and its connection with Marseille’s soap-making expertise.
This range should nevertheless be understood primarily as a collection of scented toilet soaps made in Marseille. Their formulas differ from those of traditional, unscented Marseille soap.
Scented Marseille soap or traditional Marseille soap: what is the difference?
These cubes are designed for personal washing and deliberately focus on fragrance and a varied choice of scents. Their formulas notably contain cleansing bases derived from oils of plant origin, fragrance and, depending on the variety, botanical extracts or aromatic ingredients.
If you are instead looking for an unscented formula associated with a different use and a different soap-making tradition, discover our traditional Marseille olive soap.
A generous 150 g scented soap cube
The 150 g format gives the soap a generous cube shape while remaining comfortable to hold for everyday washing.
It can be used:
- for washing hands;
- for body cleansing;
- in the shower;
- beside the washbasin;
- in a guest bathroom;
- as part of a gift set featuring solid products.
Why can the weight of the soap change over time?
The stated 150 g weight refers to the freshly made soap.
Like many solid soaps, the cube is subject to natural moisture loss: it can gradually lose some of its water during storage and drying.
A slight change in weight over time is therefore linked to the natural behaviour of the soap and does not mean that the product has already been used.
Unwrapped soap with no individual packaging
This 150 g scented soap is supplied without individual packaging.
The solid format is particularly well suited to this presentation: the cube can be sold loose and unwrapped without adding a separate carton around each bar.
This helps limit individual packaging around the product and is particularly suitable for bulk and refill shops, zero-waste retailers, concept stores and shops specialising in solid soap.
Five fragrances for five different scent profiles
The collection includes five varieties, allowing you to choose a soap according to your fragrance preferences.
Apricot Kernel
The Apricot Kernel version notably contains apricot kernel extract together with a fragrance composition.
It offers an alternative to the floral and aromatic profiles of the other varieties and makes it easy to vary the soaps used in the bathroom.
Crushed Lavender
This variety contains lavandin oil together with lavender flowers.
Its aromatic character naturally recalls the scents of Provence and is a classic choice for anyone who enjoys lavender-scented soap.
Rose Petals
The Rose Petals variety notably contains Rosa centifolia flower powder combined with a fragranced soap base.
Its floral profile sets it apart and also makes it suitable for creating an assortment of soaps with different fragrances.
Red Vine
The Red Vine variety notably contains Vitis vinifera extract and provides an alternative to the more familiar scents in the range.
Green Tea
The Green Tea version contains Camellia sinensis extract.
It completes the collection with a fresher, greener scent profile suited to anyone looking for a more understated fragrance.
Set of 5 soaps to discover every fragrance
The range is also available as a set containing all five fragrances.
The assortment allows you to discover:
- Apricot Kernel;
- Crushed Lavender;
- Rose Petals;
- Red Vine;
- Green Tea.
The set is also an option for creating a gift featuring soaps made in Marseille without having to choose just one fragrance.
How to use scented solid soap every day
1. Wet the soap and skin
Run the cube under water and wet the area to be cleansed.
2. Work up a lather
Lather the soap between your hands or apply it directly to wet skin.
3. Cleanse and rinse
Spread the lather over the skin and rinse thoroughly with clean water.
4. Allow the soap to dry
After use, allow the soap to drain and dry properly before using it again.
Why should a 150 g soap cube be allowed to dry properly?
Soap left in water or on a permanently damp holder can soften and be used up more quickly.
To help preserve a pleasant texture, keep the cube away from standing water and, where possible, away from direct shower spray.
A magnetic soap holder that helps the soap dry can be used when the firmness and shape of the cube allow the metal insert to be securely attached.
Pair your scented soap with a Loofah for the shower
The soap can be used on its own or combined with a shower accessory when mechanical action on the body is desired.
One such accessory is loofah, a sponge made from fibres of plant origin that soften when thoroughly wetted. Discover several formats in our Loofah & Luffa body sponge selection.
Always adjust the pressure to your own comfort and avoid excessive exfoliation on sensitive areas.
Solid soap for reducing selected bathroom packaging
The scented cube can replace liquid hand soap or bottled shower gel when a solid format suits the user’s habits.
Because the soap itself is sold without individual packaging, it also avoids systematically adding a separate carton around every bar.
