A Tradition Rooted in Syria
Aleppo soap has been made for over 2,000 years and is considered the ancestor of all hard soaps. This liquid version honours that same heritage, using natural oils and traditional cauldron saponification to create one of the most authentic, skin-friendly cleansers available today.
This pure authentic Liquid Aleppo Soap is made in Aleppo City using the same traditional craftsmanship that has defined Aleppo soapmaking for centuries.
While solid Aleppo soap is saponified with soda, the liquid form is made using potash, giving it a thick, smooth texture reminiscent of traditional black soap. Handcrafted in a cauldron using slow, artisanal saponification, this gentle formula cleanses effectively while respecting the natural balance of the skin.
Rich in vitamins, antioxidants and essential fatty acids, it cleans without stripping, soothes irritation and leaves skin soft, nourished and protected.

Tadé was founded 29 years ago through a love of history and the
Levantine Mediterranean region.
Aleppo soap is the oldest form of soap in the world and the forerunner of Traditional Savon de Marseille. Thaddée de Slizewicz, the founder, is dedicated to perpetuating the wonders of Aleppo soap in a sustainable and ethical way, investing in the region, infrastructure and people involved. Now employing 15 full time team in Syria and a further 10 in France, 'authenticity, pleasure and elegance' underpins their direction and ethos. In 2023 they made 30tons of Pure Aleppo Soap and we are honoured to bring them to, and represent them in the UK.
Made between December and March, immediately following the Olive harvest, the Olive and Laurel Oils are saponified in a cauldron over 7-14days then the paste is poured on the floor and left to set. It is stamped and cut then left to dry for 9 months before being packed and shipped to France.

Didn’t work very well in our foaming home handwashing dispenser but it’s beautiful as a shower gel. In my senior years (71+) skin is requiring regular moisturiser. Olive oil does the job in this one. Fragrance is not to my taste but that is what nature provides. Still give it 5*.
