New Delhi [India] September 3: In a world teeming with modern conveniences, it’s easy to overlook the humble beginnings of some of the most essential products we use today. Soap, an everyday staple in our lives, has a history that stretches back to the dawn of civilisation. Among the many varieties that have emerged over the centuries, one stands out for its age and enduring legacy—Aleppo soap, also known as Laurel Soap, the ‘mother of all soaps.’
Aleppo soap, often called Syria’s “green gold,” is more than just a cleanser; it’s a testament to centuries of artisanal craftsmanship and tradition. Originating from the ancient city of Aleppo in northwestern Syria, this soap has been crafted using the same methods for over 2,500 years. The first hard bar soap in the world, Aleppo soap is a luxurious blend of olive and laurel oil, carefully mixed, heated, and aged to perfection.
This miraculous soap, a favourite of historical figures like Queen Cleopatra of Egypt and Queen Zenobia of Syria, owes its fame not only to its effectiveness but also to the meticulous process by which it is made. In Aleppo, generations of merchant families and artisans have passed down the secrets of this craft, creating a product that remains unrivalled in its purity and benefits.
The production of Aleppo soap is nothing short of an art form, a ritual that honours traditions over two millennia. Skilled artisans begin by mixing olive oil, water, and lye in large in-ground vats, heating the concoction until it transforms into a luxurious paste. The magic ingredient—laurel berry oil—is added at the end, imbuing the soap with its distinctive fragrance and healing properties.
Once cooled, the soap is cut into cubes, stamped with the maker’s mark, and left to age for up to a year. During this time, the soap transforms, with its color changing from green to the rich brown that has become its trademark.
Enter Laurel Savon, a brand that seeks to bring the essence of Aleppo soap to the modern world.
Founded by entrepreneur Tausif Mohi, Laurel Savon is not just a skincare brand—it’s a movement that bridges the past with the present. The idea for Laurel Savon was born out of Tausif’s serendipitous encounter with Aleppo soap, a gift from a Syrian friend that sparked his curiosity and led him on a journey to Syria. There, he delved into the world of legendary soap artisans, discovering a historical legacy too captivating to keep to himself.
Laurel Savon is a tribute to this ancient craft, offering a range of soaps that stay true to the traditional methods while catering to the needs of today’s consumers. Each bar of Laurel Savon is handcrafted in Syria, using the finest cold-pressed olive and laurel oils, ensuring that the soap is 100% natural, hypoallergenic, and free from synthetic additives.
