Traditional Savon de Marseille

300g Marseille Soap Cube with Olive Oil 72%

Traditional Savon de Marseille

300g Marseille Soap Cube with Olive Oil 72%

The green cube, in a more manageable size. The 300g Savon de Marseille Cube with 72% Olive Oil is the historic, traditional Marseille soap cube in its authentic olive oil formula — the same 72% olive oil content, the same characteristic deep green colour, the same certification from the Savon de Marseille professionals union, and the same sourcing from one of the last traditional Marseille soap factories still operating today. At 300g, it is the ideal size for trying the cube for the first time, for smaller households, or for keeping one in the kitchen and one in the bathroom.

The Olive Oil Formula — The Original Marseille Soap

The original Savon de Marseille was made with olive oil — the most abundant oil in the Provence region and the foundation of the traditional formula. The 72% olive oil content gives this cube its characteristic green colour and a particularly gentle, nourishing quality that makes it suitable for hand and body washing as well as household cleaning. Entirely palm oil free — a meaningful distinction in a soap market where palm oil is still widely used.

Sourced exclusively from one of the last old-fashioned Marseille soap factories still operating today — a member of the Savon de Marseille professionals union, meaning the product is authentically labelled and produced to the historic standard.

300g — The Versatile Everyday Size

At 300g, this cube is long-lasting but not overwhelming — the right size for a kitchen sink, a bathroom shelf, or a utility room. Use it directly for hand and body washing, grate it into laundry washes as a natural detergent, clean dishes and kitchen surfaces, remove stains from fabric, or dissolve shavings into a liquid soap solution. The gentle olive oil formula is kind to skin and safe for septic tanks and grey water systems.

For larger households or heavier use, the 600g olive oil cube is also available in our store. To learn more about the many uses of Marseille soap, read our full guide here.

Packaging

We take a great deal of love and care in packing all your orders, We use packaging that is only biodegradable / recycled card / paper based and paper tape ( that can all go in your kerbside recycling box ), we avoid the use of plastic at every opportunity.

Gift Sets are packaged in their own boxes, so for example if you order multiple sets they will have their own box and then placed in one big box.

Natural soap products we sell are without packaging and by their nature very soft, and we try and protect each one as much as possible using paper and cardboard wrapping materials that can all be recycled, you may find some slight marks through travel which does not effect the use of the soap, its just part of their rustic charm !

We also avoid as far as possible to avoid "high gloss" packaging, that we know cannot actually be recycled widely.

Various Gift box packaging is available as an option.
