Guys, what’s your go-to bar of soap? (wayfarershaven.eu)

My partner goes through bars of soap fairly quickly, so I’d like to find a shower soap bar sold in bulk that’s around $1-2 a bar but without the horrible scent of Dove soap (it’s very artificial and too overpowering). Any recommendations?

Original Aleppo soap. Need about 3-4 pieces of it per year, they are odorless, or at least smell only slightly earthy.
Price here 4-6 euros per piece.
I use them for the face and my (arm-length) hair.

Dettol Original antibacterial bar soap. Comes with no scent I notice. Maybe slightly lemon-y, at best.

I keep it simple and cheap, Zest or Irish Spring.

Im interested as well because Dove is the only one that doesn't dry out my skin. They do have unscented Dove, but may be hard to find.

Lush's Honey I washed the kids. The caramel scent makes it very hard to not bite the entire bar

Dr. Bronners is a weird brand but really good products and I love their bar soap. I can only vouch for the eucalyptus scent though. Might slightly more and probably isn't in most stores so Amazon is usually the best

Reading the back of Dr. Bronners soap bottles is so fun, haha. Hadn't thought that they sell bar soap too though. Definitely going to try it out, thanks!

Been using Oil of Olay Ultra Moisture for years and years. Should fit your budget and has a mild scent that to me smells clean and not perfumey.

I like Harry’s bar soap, specifically the Stone scent. It’s very subtle and not overpowering.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

We've tried Harry's before and I really like it! just a little too far on the expensive side for how much we go through.

I usually just grab the bars from Whole Foods
