Thread: L'Occitane CADE Soap

I just got some of this stuff because I read a review of it over at b&b, and there just so happens to be a store in Honolulu. I have to say that I was sceptical of the purchase due to the price.
But I really, really like it. Its my first soap (oh, they grow up so quick). The scent is light but delicious (juniper), and the lather is friggin great! Hopefully it will last a long time, and make me feel better about spending $30 on soap.

It lasts me about a year and a half. Refills are less costly.

Oh. Well then it is cheaper than dirt. lol

one of my favourites. try the CADE AS balm - also one of my favorites. Also have the Vetyver - not bad at all, not one of my all time favs but definitely a nice daily scent

Cheers

The soap is incredible. I bought mine on the road, and just went for the refill. It's hard to beat, even if a bit on the expensive side.

Yeah, true dat! I did the same - I was out in SF on business last week, and happened to be near a L'Occitane store, so I decided to drop in and grab up a puck of the shaving soap (refill only - opted for a little $2 plastic kitchen bowl from the Container Store instead of the fancy pants pewter bowl...). VERY good stuff. Great (and quick) lather and a mild, subtle scent. I'm still partial to Colleen's soaps, but I've now added the CADE to my soap bullpen.

Time to annex another bathroom drawer from my wife!

My favorite soap is L'Occitane. Don't know the name of it, but it smells like cedar.

So Colleen's soaps rival, or for some... are better, than L'Occitane??? how does one obtain one of her soaps. I have not been able to find a website.

if anyone has an extra one laying around, count me as an interested party.

thanks

Just shoot Colleen an email at thegentlemensquarter@verizon.net. She's very responsive (and a super cool person to boot). You won't be disappointed!

Very cool person. A real pleasure to deal with. I bought the Oak & Moss and the Black Cavendish. Super shaving creams.
