The oldest form of soap in the world, it is reported that Cleopatra refused to use anything other than Aleppo Soap made using Laurel Oil she selected herself!

100% Pure and Natural, Hypoallergenic and recommended by dermatologists, the various strengths of Laurel Oil are best suited to different skin types, but useable by all.

Laurel (Bay) Oil is natural antiseptic, antiviral and anti-fungal. Renowned for healing and soothing, its high lauric, oleic and linoleic acids balance and support the skin.
Olive Oil is nourishing, soothing and supportive to red, irritated and sensitive skins, whilst delivering and holding moisture in dry skins.

Aleppo Soaps are precious soaps handmade in Syria following ancient and unchanged processes, using only olive oil and laurel oils that are saponified between December and March each year immediately following the Olive Harvest.

This famous, ancient soap Savon d'Alep takes its name from Aleppo in Syria where it has been made for over 1300 years, still following ancient methods and tradition. Aleppo soap was the inspiration for the French Traditional Savon de Marseille.

Olive oil and Laurel oil are cooked in huge cauldrons with soda from sea salt triggering the saponification process. When the paste is ready it is poured onto the floor where it cools and hardens, then hand cut into blocks and stamped with the mark of the producer. It is then stacked in towers to aerate and dry for 9 months in ancient cool and breazy cellars. As the soap ages it hardens and the colour transforms from an olive green to a beautiful deep gold/brown. Proper Aleppo Soaps have a deep characteristic fragrance, a golden brown exterior and a glossy emerald centre (slice your bar in half to see this amazing product in all its glory!, and they float on water.
