I am not a big soap user. I tend to use liquid soap for washing my hands and cleanser for my face and body. I really like L'Occitane soaps though, this one is really good. The soap feels good quality and does not go mushy after several uses. It lathers really nicely and has a gentle scent. It is gentle enough to use on the face and body. It does not dry the skin like most soaps, you feel like you have used a moisturising product.
The soap comes nicely packaged. I wouldn't normally think of giving soap as a gift but I would give L'Occitane soaps as they look special.
Not tested on animals so even better

A good hard bar of soap, which doesn't melt away in the bath so last a long time making it great value for money. Still lathers well and has a luxurious honeysuckle sent that stays even when washed off. Simply packaged in a plastic film wrapper - no excess packaging. Leave skin soft and not dry like a standard soap.

Summary
I've been using L'Occitaine soaps instead of shower gels, as I actually find it more cost effective, and it leaves my skin just as soft.

I love L'Occitane products as they are not tested on animals and full of lovely plant based ingredients. this lathers up beautifully with a nice creamy fresh honeysuckle fragrance. the scent last on my skin even after I have dried off which I like. the bar lasts well as although it lathers well it isn't a soft soap that melts away in the bath when used. I love this and other L'Occitane soaps as they are affordable luxuries.

Hard milled soap so lasts for months and does not disintegrate or turn mushy. Produces thick creamy lather with a gorgeous honeysuckle scent! Highly moisturising and mild enough to use on the face and body. Fantastic traditional looking design. Lasts for a very long time so excellent value for money

Summary
This is another adorable soap from L'Occitane and one of my mother's favourites. It is a solid, hard milled bar which ensures that it lasts right down to the last slither without disintegrating or turning to mush in your soap dish! The lather is so thick and creamy it feels like a rich moisturiser. The scent is absolutely beautiful and the soap so gentle it can be used on the face as well as the body. This soap actually moisturises your skin and does not cause irritation or dryness. I adore the old style, traditional design of this product. The soap lasts for months on end and it is phenomenal value for such a high quality product! Highly recommended
