 marrakesh hand soap

Marrakesh

The luxurious city of Marrakesh is the fourth largest in the beautiful Kingdom of Morocco, with profound blue skies, opulent architecture, and charmingly vivacious culture. While people are often attracted by all the wonders Marrakesh has to offer, they tend to become captivated by the refined cuisine that boasts flavors as bold as the city’s dazzling components.  The Marrakesh scent is an homage to the souks of Morocco.

Our Marrakesh scent is meant to embody the striking nature of the Imperial city.  Top notes include the aromas of bright and floral cardamom spices, accompanied by piney cubeb berries. Bottom notes call on the hearty finish of nutty coriander herbs.

Our Byblos scent speaks to the effervescent, yet authentic culture the city is known for by combining sense heightening, sweet and tangy sumac berries with the subtle, lush aroma of a smooth olive oil.
