Experience the timeless craft of Aleppo soap making in Laurel Gold, a soap bar rooted in over a millennium of tradition. Just as handmade in the ancient city of Aleppo, Syria, this soap pairs just two noble oils, pure olive oil and laurel berry oil, for a formula that’s astonishingly simple yet remarkably effective.
-
Heritage & Purity
The Aleppo soap recipe has changed little in thousands of years. Olive oil delivers deep, gentle cleansing and lasting moisture, while laurel berry oil brings its signature herbal‑medicinal note and natural preservative power. -
A Symphony in Two Tones
Over a year‑long curing process, the bar’s exterior dries to a soft, pale gold—hence the name—while its heart remains a vibrant olive green. Each slice reveals that striking contrast, a visual tribute to the bar’s natural maturation. -
Rock‑Solid & Long‑Lasting
Thanks to its low-moisture cure, Laurel Gold is exceptionally hard: it wears slowly and evenly, so a single bar endures wash after wash. -
Subtle Herbal Bouquet
We’ve elevated the historic laurel note with our own essential‑oil blend: bright lemon and lime lend freshness, rosemary adds a woodsy warmth, litsea cubeba brings an uplifting citrus‑floral touch, and patchouli grounds the scent with gentle earthiness. The result is a delicate herbal bouquet that whispers and never shouts.
Use Laurel Gold as your morning wake‑up and evening wind‑down: its skin‑softening lather cleanses thoroughly without stripping moisture, leaving behind only a faint, lingering hint of golden laurel grove. Rediscover soap as it was meant to be, pure, purposeful, and beautifully simple.

100% ALL-NATURAL SOAP
All soap is a mixture of oils, lye and liquid. When combined, it results in soap + glycerin. The big difference is what happens from here.

NO GLYCERIN Driven by profits, commercial soap producers remove the vegetable glycerin and sell it at a higher markup in other products (like lotion). |
NATURAL GLYCERIN In our handmade soap, the glycerin is retained in the bar, and combines with coconut, olive and other high quality oils to nourish your skin. |
HARSH CHEMICALS ADDED To create more lather without the glycerin, harsh chemicals are added such as SLS (causes skin irritation) and parabens (linked to cancer). |
FREE OF HARSH CHEMICALS Cold process soap has no need to add harsh chemicals. The result? Happy, healthy skin. You will feel the difference and never go back. |
