Savon de Marseille Soaps

Simple, time-honoured and beautifully effective, Savon de Marseille soaps are a true French classic. Made using traditional methods that date back centuries, these hard-milled bars are prized for their purity, longevity and gentle, no-nonsense cleansing.

Our Savon de Marseille collection brings together authentic French soaps in a range of fresh, floral and fruity scents — from soft eglantine (sweet briar) to bright pomegranate. Each bar creates a creamy, low-foam lather that rinses cleanly, leaving skin feeling comfortable and refreshed rather than coated.

These are soaps designed for everyday life. Dependable by the sink, practical in the shower and generous in size, they suit busy households as well as those who appreciate quiet, traditional craftsmanship. The fragrances are carefully balanced: never overpowering, always clean, making them ideal for frequent use and shared spaces.

Savon de Marseille soaps are also wonderfully versatile. Use them for hands or body, keep one by the kitchen sink, or tuck a bar into drawers and linen cupboards for a subtle, fresh scent. Their simple packaging and classic feel make them an easy choice for gifting too — especially when paired with other French-inspired favourites.

If you’re drawn to honest ingredients, uncomplicated formulas and soaps that simply do their job well, this collection is a natural place to start. Traditional French soapmaking, thoughtfully sourced and made for modern, everyday rituals.

Perfect for:

Everyday handwashing, shower use, family bathrooms, guest soaps and understated gifts.
