MARSEILLE SOAP IN CANADA

We just received household Marseille soaps from France! As you may know, when a household Marseilles soap has just been made, it contains a lot of water. Our soap makers put them on wooden shelves in order to let them dry. However, when those soaps arrive here in Canada, they are still a little bit wet, so we too have to let them rest on wooden shelves for a bit. Here is what a "wall" of olive oil soaps look like!

A new scented soap is now available in our catalog : the orange blossom Marseille cube soap . It is also a gently exfoliating soap, still a lot less exfoliating than other scented cubes 300 grams. If you like orange blossom fragrance, you can find it in different forms of soaps : 250g oval soap and our small 25g heart-shaped soap.

Obviously we are running out of stock of some Marseille soaps. This is due to a very successful Christmas market which has drown our stock down, much more than expected. Of course out Christmas market is a good excuse. To be honest, the guy who manage our stock (me) is to blame. Since I can not fire myself, I did the only think possible: ordering more soaps from France. So here we go, we have right now a big order in process in Marseille and it should arrive in Canada at the beginning of spring. Soon enough to have some snow left on the ground as we will be heading to pick up our pallets...

Christmas eve is in sight and even closer in time is the Nutcracker Market held right on the ground floor of the Montreal Convention Center. Since the Nutcracker Market started, back in 2010, we never missed a single call and this year is no exception to the rule. Au savon de Marseille will be at booth 52. So come see us, our soaps and many gift packages from November 27th to December 7th. As usual, the admission is free and 10% of our sales will be donated to the Nutcracker Fund for Children. Merry Christmas everyone!

Here are some good news for Marseille soap lovers! Not only have we decided to extend our promotion on rotating Marseille soaps , but we thought a couple of other discounts would be enjoyable, so here there go: - 20% off on our round Marseille soap verbena fragrance (dye-free). - 20% off on our fine Marseille soap with violet fragrance . And of course, do not forget about our non-stop promotion on our Marseille soap bars with olive oil . Thank you for reading and we should be back here at the beginning of next month to talk a little bit about our great and exciting Christmas market in Montreal which is coming soon!

Aleppo soap lovers might be (temporary) happy. We have just received a few Organic Aleppo soaps with 40% of laurel bay oil. Quantity is limited, so enjoy it while it last and to be honest, we do not know how long it will last or if we will be able to get some more of that soap in the futur. http://www.savon-de-marseille.ca/en/product/organic-aleppo-soap-40-percent-laurel.html On a more optimistic note, we are pleased to annouce our participation to "Le Festin Culturel de Brossard". So please come to meet us and our Marseille soap on saturday 9th, 2014 at Le Parc Poly-Arena in Brossard. The event starts at 1 pm and ends up with a firework!

Between late winter and early spring, our Marseille soaps stock was at its lowest level ever. This has been due to changes in logistics but for the most part, bad storms that hit Europe had drastically delayed maritime traffic at that time. It took almost three times longer for our Marseille soaps to reach the coasts of Canada! Fortunately, everything is now back to normal and our last pallet of soap just arrived this week at the Port of Montreal. So enjoy it right now by visiting the online store of the Marseille soap in Canada! http://www.savon-de-marseille.ca/english.html
