Martin de Candre

Another one of my favorite Paris purchases..

I am completely in LOVE with the ROSE SOAP from Martin de Candre that my friend Marion insisted that I buy. It is made from fresh roses at and the aroma is heavenly. It is so amazing how much our SENSES effect our mood. There is something about the smell of fresh roses that brings me back to the French countryside where everything is beautiful. There is nothing better than a hot bubble bath with a bar of Rose Soap. *runs away from computer and starts running bath water..*


In the heart of the Loire château country sits the Domaine de Mestré, a beautiful country estate which has been run as a family soap making business for thirty five years. The soaps are made to old recipes, using the Marseille method, from natural ingredients. Olive or palm oil is used and all the fragrances are from essential oils. They are left to dry for two months; the drier a soap, the more developped its perfume becomes.

I also purchased a small bottle of pillow mist for pleasant dreams.
