Quick response from seller

I purchased this soap as a substitute for the Bee & Flower sandalwood soap my family used for generations before they changed the formula five-ish years ago. It's not as fragrant or as effective as a cleanser, but it has a pleasant scent and I'll continue using it. The scent is more on the floral and slightly sweet side (but not too floral), not as woodsy or spicy as I prefer, but it's nice. Pros: - bar is soft and buttery, feels good against the skin - lathers well - gentle on the skin - smell is not overbearing - washes off completely with no residue - packaging of the individual bars is biodegradable Cons: - as a softer bar, it wears down faster than any soap I've ever used; I wish the bars were larger so I didn't feel like I was unwrapping a new bar every week - not very efficient as a cleanser, takes 2-3 passes to take off grime - a tad more drying than other handmade soaps (but overall very gentle) - scent doesn't last longer than an hour or two I'm usually covered with vegetable-based polishing compounds after work, but those who don't get as dirty as I do might appreciate how gentle it is. Overall, I'd recommend for daily bath use.

This is still the best soap for people who work hard in extreme heat. Ideal for gardeners and farmers. Also relieves bug bites to some extent if used in the shower. Gets rid of the funkiest smells too! (Not good for use around the eyes however.)

I love this soap for so many reasons. Firstly, the ingredients are very natural compared to most of the soap bars found in local retailers. Secondly, they are incredibly affordable. I buy the ten packs for around $18 bucks, which is a great price compared to the $6+/bar I've spent previously for natural soaps. Thirdly, I LOVE the scent and it seems to linger a little longer than others. It reminds me of incense. Additionally, I love the size of the bars. They are neither too big nor too small. This soap is gentle and doesn't irritate skin, not even my kiddos who have more sensitive skin. It lathers well and doesn't dry out our skin. I have been using this soap for about 2-3 years now and have no desire to ever switch. I also love Chandrika's sandlewood scented soaps, but those are harder to find and more expensive. I hope they never stop producing these or change the ingredients. They are perfect!

This is an excellent bar soap. I've been trying out a variety of bar soaps to find the most natural and gentle soap that's good for my skin, and I think this is it. I've looked for natural bar soaps that use essential oils and natural ingredients with no chemicals or byproducts, and that don't leave residue. Some natural soaps are just too strong and contain too many oils, and I found that those soaps caused breakouts and left my skin feeling burdened and icky. Not so with this soap. It does leave my skin a little dry like a Castile soap, but my skin feels smooth and soft, not sticky with residue. The scent is divine and it took me some time to get used to it because it is a little strong, but it smells wonderfully clean and light, not thick and cloying. I also use robathol oil help with the dryness or occasionally some gel cream lotion. I am very pleased with this soap and will continue to use it.

The health food and grocery store use to carry this soap and I always loved the sandlewood fragrance and good cleaning lather. That health food store is gone now; out of business. I happened to think of it the other day and decided to buy some. Glad to see its still available.
