A large batch of new soaps! Ok we want here to go directly to the point : we have a lot of new soaps with new fragrances. So I guess I should just make a list here so you can judge for yourself and shop one or several of those really nice products from France. In the "classical" shape (and weight) section of our Provence soaps; here are two new great fragrances : Lime and Raspberry . Lime - 100 g (3.50 oz) Raspberry - 100 g (3.50 oz) Want soaps with grains? You might love our exfoliating Bran and Lemon soap and the soap with embedded Apricot pits as well. Ouch! Bran & Lemon - 200 g (7 oz) Apricot pits - 100 g (3.50 oz) Also we thought this little lavender cube is too cute to be left alone in Provence. Poor baby. So we brought it here in Canada! Lavender cube soap - 100 g (3.50 oz) One last gift for the road : we offer a 50% discount on our 100g blue lavender Provence soap and 250g bags of rose soap flakes . Well, wh...

Marseille soap flakes.

Nearly two weeks ago we had tons of soaps that arrived from Marseille. Among our regular products we also received some new ones which will be put online as April unfold. Just like this 1kg bag of Marseille soap flakes. http://www.savon-de-marseille.ca/en/product/1kg-olive-soap-flakes.html Basically, those soap flakes are grated household Marseille cube soaps made on a olive oil base. Dye and frangrance-free. Enjoy!

Here they come!

Hello, The ship carrying our Marseille soaps is going to dock next week at the Port of Montreal, on Thursday, January 14th to be exact. Of course, that does not mean we will have our missing soaps right away since they must be unloaded and go through customs clearance. So, we hope to see many of our soaps available again sometime during the week of January 18th. Note that only soaps whose reference (or SKU) starting with the letter "L" are going to be restocked at this time. There will be a couple of new products, but we will unveil them later on. :) Mystery and patience. Stephane from Au savon de Marseille.

Household Marseille cube soaps reloaded.

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!

Spring will bring more soaps

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...

Great discounts on Marseille soaps

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!

Santa Claus is an early bird.

We did not even had time to set up our Christmas tree but Santa Claus has already brought some surprises at Au savon de Marseille! No unknown fragrances but still three new soaps have made their way to our online store: Orange blossom and Verbena lemon soaps from Provence (100 grams - 3.50 oz), as well as our popular lavender soap flakes that we now make available in 250 grams (8.80 oz) paper bags. On a side note, but not the least, we would like to thank all of you who have come to our booth at The Nutcracker Market in Montreal. This has been a huge success and this is fortunate since 10% of our sales is going to the Nutcracker Found for Children.
