Marsaille Smells Lovely On You

Hi, and Happy New Year,

Hope you had a great holiday season.  I took a little time off but, when you have a passion, you never really switch off.  I thought i would do a quick blog on Marseille, France.  After all, i sell so much of their beautiful Savon de Marseille soaps.  Many of you have purchased one from me, so i hope you are really enjoying their fragrance and soap quality.  The most popular range we have is the Incense Lavender.  I sell more of that than any other fragrance. 

Here are our other lovely Savon de Marseille range - available at our online store and at our Pop Up Stores: 

But Marseille is also a beautiful port city in southern France, has been a crossroads of immigration and trade since its founding by the Phoenicians in 600 B.C.E. It’s a place of tranquil squares and stepped streets, bustling 19th-century avenues and souklike markets. At its heart is the Vieux Port, where fishmongers sell their daily catch along the boat-lined quayside. La Canebière, the main thoroughfare, runs east from here.  Have a read of this great article below from "The Good Life France" - they have a feature on Marseille. 

Perhaps you have been there? If you have, I would love to know about it. If you haven't, then perhaps you can add that to your bucket list. I have.

Have a great 2016!

À toute à l'heure!

Kathie
