Aleppo soap—also known as savon d’Alep or laurel soap—is one of soap-making’s oldest living traditions, originating in Aleppo, Syria, possibly as early as the 8th century AD, though its roots feel much older in the shifting sands of time.
Crafted by hand, this humble bar blends olive oil with bay laurel berry oil and lye. The olive oil brings deep moisturization, while the laurel oil adds antiseptic, soothing, and nourishing properties—creating a soap both gentle enough for a baby’s skin and potent enough for those seeking tender healing.
