move over l'occitane! prior to living in france, that was the most famous soap brand from provence…read morethat i knew of... ANYWAY~ i was lucky enough to *wander* into this shop when i was in marseille walk into one of these stores and you will need to stop and *inhale* the lovely smell of olive oil intermixed with all the other fragrances which range from the light flowery black jasmine to the clean mediterranean as if the scents weren't enough of an attraction...these soaps are definitely a luxury being triple milled and all! AND the layout of the products are much like lush (items are sold by weight) w/o the spunky marketing...*imagine* a sophisticated laidback version definitely pickup one of their classic 72% olive oil bars...it's even stamped into it just in case you forget! i feel spoiled when i use it ;p K3
