Mysore Pure Natural Sandalwood Oil Ayurvedic Soap - 3 x 150g bars in 1 gift packCompact by Design (Certified by Amazon)

I bought this for a friend of mine, who has often been disappointed by scented soaps and other products. She mentioned that she liked sandalwood, and I remembered Mysore soap, which was sold in a shop in which I used to work. Checked it out online, and found this supplier at a reasonable price. The 3 bars came in an attractive box. My friend is very pleased with this soap. I might buy some for myself as well.

This soap is the real thing - the classic Indian sandalwood soap, excellent quality, without gimmicks. The texture is lovely, creamy without being gooey, the scent is rich without being overpowering, the foam is substantial without creating masses of froth.I've been treating myself to Mysore Sandalwood soap many times over the years, whenever I wanted a bit of luxury. It comes in different sizes and shapes. I find these round ones to be the most practical size - substantial enough as a bath soap or hand soap, but small enough to fit comfortably into the hand.Another advantage is that the sandalwood scent smells good on women and on men, so couples or families can use it. (As a woman, I think sandalwood smells gorgeous on a freshly washed male body.) So I think this would make a great gift for people of any age and gender.

People with sensitive skin, don't do well on petroleum based products. This soap is produced in India and is entirely vegetable so can be safely used even on babies skins. There is not a huge scent to this soap but it is pleasant. I am not sure about the value for money and as I don't use petroleum based soaps I have nothing to compare it to. But given that it helps eczema prone skin to recover from a bad bout of itching and scratching... it could be invaluable. Please give it a try and stop using petroleum based products on your sensitive skin, in whatever form - use this soap and oatmeal based moisturisers, cleansers, and shower gel.

Nice soap and a great smell.Far better clean then any shower gel and good value for money.3 bars will last a while.

Long lasting and smells lovely 😍

I purchased a box of three bars of this soap at the end of February this year and started to use it within a couple of days. The final bar is about half used and will probably last until the end of July. The lather from the soap in warm water is a rich creamy white with a very pleasant delicate aroma. Clearly, five months washing hands and showering from three bars of soap costing around ten pounds sterling represents excellent value. when I ordered this product I had no idea that i would get such good value for money spentI will order the next box in a few days.

Look on the back of the box and you will find the price in rupees. Just back from India, not far fromKarnataka where this fabulous soap is made, 85 rupees per bar. Import duties must be very high!

My favourite soap, reminds me of trips to India. Lovely scent, long lasting. Interesting video on youTube shows how they make it.
