Savon de Marseille is a traditional French soap crafted since the 17th century (with roots dating back to the 1600s), made from natural vegetable oils and free from harsh additives. Its gentle, nourishing formula helps support the skin’s natural moisture barrier, reducing dryness and irritation, and is especially suitable for sensitive skin or conditions like rosacea. Timeless, soothing, and eco-friendly, it offers a pure and effective everyday cleanse.
Now less than five soap makers still craft Marseille Soap according to the centuries-old tradition. It takes our Maitre de Savon (soapmaster) two weeks to make Savon de Marseille. The delicate mixture of olive oil, alkaline ash from sea plants and Mediterranean Sea salted water are heated for ten days in antique cauldrons, then poured into open pits where it hardens.
