Aleppo soap

Au savon de Marseille is pleased to announce the arrival of new soaps. Introducing  Aleppo soap , the finest and oldest soap in the world! We offer 4 different new Aleppo soaps: Aleppo soap 25% of laurel bay oil. Aleppo soap with 40% of laurel bay oil. Organic Aleppo soap with 25% of laurel bay oil Ecocert certified. Organic Aleppo soap with 40% of laurel bay oil Ecocert certified. Aleppo soap is famous for its capacity to heal skin problems such as eczema, psoriasis, acne and dry skin. It can even be used as a shampoo to fight dandruff. It is the laurel bay oil (or bay tree oil) which gives this soap all its capacity to heal those skin problems. Laurel oil being a rare oil, its quantity found in a soap directly influences its price. Aleppo soap is the ancestor of Marseille soap and both are manufactured the same way: cooked in a cauldron. The only difference is that most of the laurel oil found in the Aleppo soap is added at the end of the manufacturing process...

A direct link allows to subscribe to our newsletter. The Manufacturing section of our website has now 2 other pages : pictures and videos taken in our soap factories. Please note that the video section will direct you to the french side of the website since we could not find english versions of them, we did not feel it would have been useful to upload twice the same videos.
