Help me find this mystery beautiful bar of soap!

[ReallyShouldBeDoingSomethingElse]

I've Googled and failed to find it. There are plenty in similar packaging but then the bars inside are a different shape...

I was given a beautiful bar of soap as a gift. It smelled divine, was great for my skin and it lasted ages. I want to buy another bar but can't find it. Does anyone know of a soap brand that fits this description?:

Big rectangular bar (bigger than a standard soap bar)

White/pale cream in colour

Wrapped in thick good quality paper with a lovely colourful pattern/image on it. Vague recollection of orange/red colours

Black ribbon around it

I'm convinced the fragrance was pomegranate but could have been passionfruit

A brand I'd never heard of (think probably Italian/Spanish)

Again TKMaxx.

Ah just been to their website ( Alchimia) and they don’t do the scent you are looking for.

@ReallyShouldBeDoingSomethingElse
This one? X

Same here. Soaps.... OMG we've gone back to the dark ages. Awaiting outcome with bated breath given every soap I've ever used has left skin with slimy residue.
I reaaaaly need a luxurious soap now.....pleeeease

I think I might cut them in half and re-wrap, so I can swap them quicker!

I was really disappointed in the Faith in Nature soaps, although I use their unscented body wash for my ‘bits’.

ChatGPT is saying it’s probably Santa Maria Novella

Could it be this one? They don’t actually do this scent with Neroli anymore but the Pomegranate is lovely.
I’m too invested in soap now!

Just seen that one has already been suggested sorry

I'd actually be delighted that you enjoyed the gift I gave and wouldn't even care if you found out how much/little it may have cost me! Ask the person who gave you the soap and you'll have your answer.

I’ve just ordered a Nesti Dante soap from Escentual as so many of you love them!

L'occitane

This one?

I bought an Alchimia soap today, Tobacco it smells amazing! And a Castelbel Porto vanilla spice. I blame MN for my other TK Maxx items added to my basket.

I was given some lovely soaps, smell divine(think Arabian/Indian scents), but they came from India and don't deliver overseas. So I'm on the hunt for something similar, will go and look in TKMax

It does sound like this packaging - maybe the fig and cassis version rather than this almond which I love!

If it was sandalwood then you can sometimes get them in Morrisons.

Before I read other comments - I thought of TK Maxx as that's where I have bought a soap matching that exact description. Is it quite a large bar and just a beige-y rectangle? I don't like hand wash so I use bar soap in my kitchen but I go through so much of it that I stock up from TK Maxx. This one is lasting ages. It's huge and never seems to get any smaller.

National Trust stocks lovely soaps which I buy to give as gifts although there's more in store than online:

Any luck OP? I'm sadly invested 😂

Me too! Op @ReallyShouldBeDoingSomethingElse Any news on the mystery soap bar?

Any update?

Sorry - I've let the thread down with lack of update!

The Nesti Dante arrived and is definitely not the right one. It produces more gloop and the scent is more powerfully perfumy than the mystery soap. It's also slightly more drying.

I have an appointment in a couple of weeks in a town that has a TKMaxx so I will pop in then and buy a couple of soaps even if the elusive pomegranate one isn't there.

Do you think you will give in eventually & just ask? 😁
