Has anyone seen this lately? I love the smell but haven’t been able to get it anywhere.
I’ve resorted to buying wax melts in the fragrance, which is really sad and not who I thought I’d turn in to! Although they do make the house smell like I’ve been hard at it all day, when I’ve actually been watching Netflix - now she is someone I’m glad I turned in to 😂

Is it this the one you mean?

hopefully the link works 🙂

Ah thank you, but this Amazon one smells heavily of lavender, the one I’m after came in the cream bottle and smelt of French soap. I think it must have been discontinued.

I loved that one too, but I haven't been able to find it for ages, I think they might have discontinued it, annoyingly. I really loved the old fashioned smell! Everything else just smells too much of chemicals to me, even the supposedly 'natural' ones. If you find a good alternative please let me know!

Ooh I loved that too.

There's a washing detergent range that's savon marseille scented and I've got that in 'the range' before. They have a lot of the stuff I used to get in wilkos. I'd try places like that and home bargains or b&m

Thank you both, I’ve tried Wilkos, The Range, B & M, Home Bargains - nothing! I wonder why it was discontinued? I wonder if I can get the wax melt people to sell me the fragrance and I’ll knock up my own spray cleaner!

I think the orange asevi floor cleaner in the orange bottle smells of Marseilles soap rather than orange . It’s strong though . I love Marseilles soap fragrance, it’s really common in Belgium and France under the Mr propre brand , which is flash I think renamed . Maybe try a French product shop?

Go for the real thing, Savon Noir. Jacques Briochin make a good one I think you can buy it online.

The only place I’ve ever seen this was Savers, not sure if they still do it though

@NunsOnTheRum thank you! I have now gone down a Savon Noir. Jacques Briochin rabbit hole online! 😂

I loved this too then it got replaced by the one with Lavender which is just an awful mixture of fake scents and I hate it!

Take a croissant with you, it’s a deep hole 😂
