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...
