They were definitely not using the same aromatic essentials, but they were using nutrient oils that helped to clean and hydrate. Our soap from Alepo, made from a base of olive oil and laurel oil, is a perfect example of this long standing tradition. Its characteristic golden color is from leaving it nine months exposed to the sun, however, inside you’ll find hidden a green color from the laurel oil: antiseptic and skin protective. Without a doubt it is one of our most special soaps.
