This soap is a favorite in our family. It is great on our sensitive skin & quite moisturizing for dry skin yet not a problem for the younger members who have mild acne. Everyone in our family loves the fragrance of Grandpa's Patchouli Soap. Seems like when we open a new bar some people start showering twice a day! This product has a mild but delicious patchouli & even those who "hate patchouli" seem to like the smell. Those of us who are patchouli fanatics might fantasize for a more potent soap, however in our experience it isn't easy to find a strong, long-lasting patchouli soap. And in our family, if the patchouli got too strong, it might lose its universal appeal. One thing about the fragrance intensity. We have purchased Grandpa's Patchouli Soap from a number of different places, and it does seem that some bars have been less fragrant than others. Most essential oil products do "de-gas" or lose fragrance to the environment over time. Some health food stores & internet companies do not move product quickly, but we have had very good success with our Grandpa's Patchouli soap bars purchased from iHerb, which in our experience does move a lot of product. So we find we are most likely to get a fresh & potent bar from iHerb. I personally love having a bar of this soap in each of my clothing drawers. Makes you smile when you open the drawer! For those who complain about the soap getting soft quickly, we've found that transferring the bar to a net-type soap-saver eliminates any frustration with about texture & helps us use every bit of soap. I suspect the multiple net-layers also help water drain off the bar rather than getting absorbed, & this also increases life of the bar. Note to iHerb: Netting soap savers are a very "green" product & would make a great companion product for you to sell! If these are available on your site, I haven't been able to find them.
