Olive Oil Soap Papoutsanis CASE (6 x 125g)

Qualitativ sehr Hochwertige Seife Beeindruckend immer wieder gern

I love this soap. After a similar brand with exact ingredients disappeared from all stores in my area, I came online to track it down. There are a couple ingredients which does wonders for my ridiculously sensitive skin. I got 6 bars which should last me about 2 years and am SO THANKFUL. Hope I can find more to stockpile when the time comes. Excellent product, excellent quality.

I did some looking around, read the reviews and decided to order some of this soap late last fall. I've used it now for 2 months straight. My review is going to be based upon the top 3 criteria for me: healthy happy skin, fragrance and price.I have really been giving this soap a good workout during our midwest winter. I live about an hour west of Chicago and our winters can be pretty fierce. During the dead of winter (pretty much now), it can feel uncomfortable to be in your own skin. The furnace runs so often that the humidity in the house becomes very low in spite of the central humidifier. Even using really good moisturizer doesn’t completely solve the problem as I would still get that stretched tight dry almost painful feeling on my back, where it is tough to reach with the moisturizer.Not this year. It hasn’t happened at all this winter for the first time ever, and if it were going to it would have done so by now. My skin is in better shape than it has ever been, especially in the winter. No stretched tight dry painful feeling at all. My nails have also had a slight healthy sheen to them, and haven’t cracked or peeled at all as they sometimes do in the driest part of winter. And I am using less moisturizer, depending upon the season.All in all, the difference is very noticeable and remarkable. And the only new product in my regimen is the soap. I really like olive oil soaps in general and have been using them for years, but I’ve never found one that works this well. And I think that would have to be because the Papoutsanis soap is 78% olive oil as opposed to the leading contender Pre de Provence at 72%. I know that because I emailed the company to ask.If fragrance is the most important thing to you, you may or may not like this soap, because it really does smell different. I wasn’t sure at first, so I decided to give it a week to decide. That week sort of shifted my opinion. The soap has a green growing earthy fragrance that as a gardener I really appreciate and have come to like. And I think there is also an aromatherapy soothing peaceful something going on that I also like.The other criterion is price. This soap beats the other top two contenders I’ve tried hands down. They are Olivia Care and Pre de Provence. (I have also tried several other olive oil soaps, but none of them were up to much.) They both have delightful fragrances, and a great amount of olive oil and/or shea, but they are both fairly pricey. And they just can’t do the job on my combination skin in my midwest winter that the Papoutsanis soap can.So depending upon where you live, what kind of skin you have and how you feel about the price and fragrance, you may or may not like this soap. But for me, it is the far and away best olive oil soap I have ever tried.4/6/18 update on the smell controversy: I gave a bar from the case I'd been using to a friend for Christmas, and he told me later that he had to get rid of it after 2 days because he couldn't stand the smell. At first he thought it was cigarette smoke, then realized it was the soap. Then he decided it smelled like "wet burned wood." Even though I read the reviews, I was still pretty surprised as the soap doesn't smell that way at all to me. But then, my friend likes cooked cabbage, and I think it smells like something that deserves a decent burial asap. So I conclude that the way our brains process the sense of smell, the way they are "wired" are just very different. And whether or not you like this soap will probably depend upon which way you are wired.

This soap is gold, smells amazing and leaves skin clean. Rubs well on a washcloth or loofah. Love love love
