Once upon a time there was a bar of soap. There was no greater soap in all the land...I loved it. Then one day, the soap was no more and I spent the next two years of my life trying to find it again. But, alas, today it has been found.
That little bar of heliotrope scented terra cotta soap is $22 (after shipping). Times are harder now, and $22 is high, even for the love of my life. If only I could find the vendor directly, I may be able to afford to have that soap back in my life.
Unfortunately, me and my soap are separated by sea, land and language. The graphics on the web are not clear enough for me, non-French reading, to depict.
Can anyone help me get this soap back into my life? If only I knew the brand name I could continue my quest for love.

| No...but thanks for the help! The soap from my link is like a pumice stone...not glycerin-based. I just can't make out the name on the packaging. |

Have you tried experimenting with making your own soaps?
I've done a little bit of this sort of thing and it really isn't as hard as it looks. Go visit your local health food store. You can probably make a pretty amazing soap for much less.
Try a cinnamon, oatmeal, honey for exfoliating and moisturizing.
Some people really like a peppermint sage soap with or without cornmeal or some other gentle abrasive. You can use a little eucalyptus oil to really set off the 'tingle' effect of the peppermint oil.
You have to be careful as some of the ingredients can be subject to going off, but you know the principle. The more likely it is to go off, the more natural it is.
On the french label, I really can't quite see it either.
It could be:
Terre a Savon (earth with soap)
Terre a Laver (earth for washing)
or something completely different...
sorry

Could it be this: "Terra Savon"? (literally, "earth soap")

The packaging sounds different than the one I had, but other than that it looks/sounds identical!!! A lot cheaper, too. I'm ordering it now...thanks a million!

Thank you, thank you! The "a" was the only part I was able to make out.
