They have four stores around town but this one is located right along the water. It's a lovely facade outside, well organized and decorated on the inside. Ya girl loves a unicorn statue without fail.

The store is very pretty inside and has lots of choices for scents but also has a selection of clothing and some home goods that are too cute. Would be a great spot to look for presents!

I stumbled across this quaint soap shop while wondering around Marseille and picked up a couple…read moresouvenirs to purchase. The shop owner suggested I also buy this other soap that looked like a rock. Basically, it is an exfoliating soap that is probably the best thing I have ever used on my body ever!
