For over 110 years and through four generations, the Marius Fabre family has been trying to keep its ever threatened know-how alive: making true Marseilles soap by conserving the techniques of saponification in cauldrons. Jean-Pierre Denne of Marius Fabre is one of only three soap-makers in France who has the right to call himself a maître de savon, and the title took him 15 years to earn. At Fabre, this know-how is shared from one generation to the next – Denne studied under another master and in turn is training his own apprentice, who must also earn his title.Our Marseille soap is made from 100% vegetable oils, without palm oil, without coloring, without perfume, without preservatives, without animal fats or products derived from petrochemicals. Marseille soap with olive oil is also “extra pure” because, during the washing stage, it is freed from all impurities. The natural resources of Provence are ideal for soap making: abundant olive oil, soda and sel de mer from the Camargue salt flats”, says Laurence Clavier, the head of marketing and communications for Marius Fabre. “The local Savon de Marseille has been manufactured in Provence for a thousand years, but it was only during the time of Louis XIV that soap-making became a protected French heritage product.” The traditional Marseille soap manufacturing process is a guarantee of "Extra Pure" soap that is entirely free of impurities. It is gentle on all types of skin, even the most sensitive ones (babies, people with allergies, etc.).
