Cedar of Alba Soap

Calm, grounded and quietly steady.

Inspired by the forests and hills of Argyll, this handmade soap blends lavender with the deeper, woody notes of Himalayan cedarwood.

The result is a balanced scent — soft and calming, with a subtle warmth underneath.

Handcrafted in Tarbert using olive oil, coconut oil and shea butter, each bar is made in small batches and cured slowly for a long-lasting, gentle wash.

Sometimes simple really does work best.
