Special Scents
Top Notes: Green Leafy
Middle Notes: Patchouli, Spice, Vetiver, Clove
Base Notes: Balsam, Musk
A timeless botanical fragrance with deep, earthy roots. Revered for centuries, patchouli delivers a rich, intense aroma similar to Palo Santo—grounding, mysterious, and unmistakably captivating. This iconic scent experienced a renaissance from the 1960s through the late 1980s as both a beloved incense and a gender-neutral perfume staple. Heavy, complex, and utterly distinctive.

Special Scents | Handmade in Small Batches | Cold Process Method
The hand soaps at Special Scents are made with the same generous butters and oils as our bar soap.
Special Scents soaps are handmade in small batches using the cold process method, which provides a longer-lasting bar. We use a variety of organic butters and oils as our standard recipe: olive, coconut, tallow, babassu, castor, vitamin E, and a variety of vitamins and collagen. All of our soaps are made with goat milk. This particular soap features additions of cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Soap Characteristics:
-
Hard bar with moderate lather
-
High moisturizing and nourishing levels
-
Conditioning emollients stay in your bathwater as a bath oil

4. Rinse well until the water runs clear and skin feels clean (not tight).
5. Pat dry with a towel.
Moisturize if needed (especially after bathing or in dry climates).
Best Practices for a Longer-Lasting Bar
Use a draining soap dish (slotted or raised) so water doesn’t pool under the bar.
Keep it out of direct shower spray when not in use.
Let it air dry between uses.
Cut large bars in half and use one piece at a time.
How to Use for Handwashing
Wet hands.
Lather for 20 seconds (don’t forget between fingers and under nails).
Rinse and dry.
How to Use for Shaving (Optional)
Build a thicker lather with a washcloth or shaving brush.
Apply to the area and shave as usual.
Rinse skin and apply a gentle moisturizer.
Storage Tips
Store unused bars in a cool, dry place.
For best scent experience, keep bars wrapped or in a sealed container until use.
Troubleshooting
Bar feels soft or dissolves quickly: It’s staying wet. Switch to a draining dish and keep it out of the spray.
Less lather than expected: Hard water can reduce lather. Try a washcloth/loofah and use a little more product.
Skin feels dry: Reduce scrubbing pressure, shorten shower time, and moisturize after.
Important Notes
For external use only.
Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
If you have allergies or are under medical care, consult a professional before use.
Want the Best Results?
Pair your soap with a draining soap dish and allow it to fully dry between uses. A well-cared-for bar lasts longer and keeps its scent and lather at their best.
