Inspired by the Edwardian classic A Room With A View, this soap captures the beauty and romance of Tuscan citrus groves. With a bright, citrusy blend of bergamot, petitgrain, and may chang, it’s fresh and spirited — much like Lucy Honeychurch herself. A bar for dreamers, travellers, and soulful romantics.

All our soap products are handmade in small batches, using a traditional cold process method. Use at the basin, bath, or shower. 

Skin Benefits

Apricot Kernel Oil: Gentle and nourishing, rich in vitamins A and E, it helps soften and soothe sensitive or dry skin.

Frankincense: Grounding and calming, frankincense promotes relaxation and uplifts the mood with its natural soothing compounds.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Packed with antioxidants, it deeply hydrates and softens, leaving skin feeling smooth and cared for.

Product Care & Ingredients

To keep your soap at its best before use, store it in a cool, dry spot with good air circulation, away from sunlight and humidity. Historically, soaps were often tucked into linen closets to gently scent fabrics.

To make your soap last longer, keep it dry between uses by placing it on a well-draining soap dish. For high-traffic areas, like a hand basin, consider halving the bar with a knife and using one piece at a time.
