A cauldron-made soap with a warm sandalwood scent
Roger & Gallet Bois de Santal Scented Soap is a round perfumed soap for the hands and body from the Roger & Gallet Heritage collection, whose scented soaps date back to 1895. It is still made with the traditional cauldron method, perfumed through the whole bar, and its plant-based cleansing base is enriched with glycerin. It lathers into a soft, creamy foam that cleanses gently and leaves the skin supple, lightly scented with warm, woody sandalwood notes. The bar does not crack and lasts for around 100 uses.
The texture
A firm, round bar that gives a soft, creamy lather in the shower, the bath or at the sink. The woody fragrance is noticeable while you wash and stays lightly on the skin.
Who it suits
- Anyone who loves warm, woody scents
- Daily hand and body washing
- A gift, or a scented touch in a drawer
- Normal skin that is comfortable with soap
Worth knowing before you buy: it is a true soap made from sodium palmate and sodium cocoate, and it is fragranced, so very dry or sensitive skin may find it drying. A surgras, soap-free gel suits that skin better.
How long a bar lasts
Roger & Gallet counts around 100 uses per bar, so about three months if you use it once a day and keep it dry between washes.
