Crate 61 Organics, Handmade in Canada, Plant Based Cold Process Natural Bar Soap, With Premium Essential Oils, Dry Skin, Pack of 6 (For Him)

I am new to natural soaps this year. What got my attention first was the price. It is around the average price for a 6 pack. As some people know, cheap may be cheap and expensive may just be expensive. Quality is what's important. This is a quality soap at a good price. Everything from the soap to the packaging is organic and recyclable. Each soap is individually boxed with a corner showing the bar of soap. All of the ingredients are natural oils. This soap is good as a moisturizing soap. There may be a slight dryness as I feel no soap that I have used makes you feel like oil. This one is great at preventing that super dry skin that I had with regular soap. I have found that the regular soaps I was using was scented and made me smell like I have not had a bath in days. This soap takes care of all that. It does not have much of a fragrance, but compared to what I was smelling like, this soap has me smelling like clean air. When you open the box, the fragrance is strong and it seems like they all smell good and will make you smell that way. The one thing that will happen when you take a shower is, the fragrance will disappear, but that's ok because you will be clean and fresh in the end. Some people's bodies cannot handle perfumes and colognes. This soap is perfect for that purpose. There is one that is exfoliating (Tango Mango). There is also the one with peppermint. Beware not to let it get in your eyes. These soaps have a decent lather, not too much, but enough to know that it is soap. That's probably the reason that it does not dry you out. I think soaps with a lot of lather tends to dry you out more. This one rinses clean so that's a signal that it moisturizes more by not leaving soap scum on you as regular soaps do. Each soap lasted me almost a week. One of the things I really like is, I can use a bar until it dissolves completely. It does not break into pieces like another brand that I used that was extremely expensive for soap. I bought it the same time that I bought Crate 61. This soap gets razor/paper thin and continues to provide lather until it disappears on your skin. Excellent job!!! I am going to buy the one with men fragrances next. I expect the same cleaning and clean fresh smell. I have been turned off by soaps that leave you smelling like roses, perfume, or cologne. I just want to smell fresh and stay fresh all day. I did not have that with regular soaps. I rather spend the money to be clean than to save the money to smell dirty. Crate 61 will be a go to soap for me as I continue to test out natural soaps. You should not be disappointed with this soap if you had the issues as I did.

I can’t hate that it is exactly as described. The scents are strong (looking at you patchouli lime) and last, but not overwhelming or overpowering. However, don’t take the “hard grit” lightly on these. They are true exfoliators. I lean more towards men’s soaps for the fragrance, I hate the florals of women’s. These lather nice and do not dry out your skin, even with the hard grit tango mango. Leaves it soft and smooth, and doesn’t break me out or dry me out. Would purchase again, however through their site where I can customize my box.

Smells great, lathers well, and, based on the amount of outdoor work and showers I take, they seem to last a long time. The men's collection is good; maybe add the cocoa, vanilla coffee bar to it. I mean, what guy wouldn't want some coffee and chocolate? I did find all the scents really nice. If the bars were about 1-2 oz larger, that would be great.

I've continued to purchase these soap bars because they smell good, they work well, and they are a much better alternative for the environment than liquid soap options. The price is also very affordable and I like the variety of the soap grit and smells offered.

I got the variety 6-pack. I like the scents and they last a while. The patchouli/lime makes my bathroom smell good, too. It lasts a reasonable amount of time. I usually use the liquid soap, but I mix this in on different days.

**Package arrived LITERALLY 5 minutes ago, here is my immediate initial reaction, and then I'll actually post this after USING the soap and getting a better feel for the product.** Keeping in mind that smell is subjective, here are my knee jerk thoughts on the bars of soap: - Firstly, I can smell the soap through the bag (and box). Whatever scent this is, it's POTENT. - Opening the box, the bars of soap look a LITTLE small. Not egregiously so, but a little bit smaller than your average bar of soap; BUT I check them against a new bar of Dove soap that I have, and they are identical. The eyes are playing tricks on you with these. - Here is the breakdown of the 6 scents - Activated Charcoal. This is what I was HOPING would smell like the "Pine Tar" that other companies (like Dr. Squatch, which I've never used, btw) have, but it is the "soap-est" smelling soap, with a hint of tar. It smells a little bit like a can of new paint. - Tango Mango. IMHO, the best smelling of the 6, with strong citrus smells. Very lemon-y, but pleasant. - Eucamint. Ahhh, here's what was permiating out of the box. This smell is STRONG, with an AGGRESSIVE mint smell. Like, Ben Gay mint. And as strong to boot. It doesn't smell BAD, but it's hands down the strongest scent. - Oatmeal Shea. Meh. Kinda smells like an old coat that would be hanging in your grandfathers closet. It's not a BAD smell, but it has this weird odor to it, like when you leave a can of peanuts in your cupboard for a long time, and then go back and smell it. - Patchouli Lime. This one kind of smells like a mixture of Activated Charcoal, Eucamint and Oatmeal Shea. It smells like a room that you just painted a day or two ago, and it definitely has the Ben Gay after aroma lingering. - Apline Spice. This smells like a box. Like find an empty cardboard box, open it, and take a whiff. Boom, Alpine Spice. My least favorite. I will say, none of them STINK; as in there isn't a smell that I'm like, "ewww, I don't want to smell like AT ALL!" Which sounds weird, because I described some of them as "paint," "an old coat," and "a cardboard box," but I feel that those are just very passive smells, not aggressively bad ones. If there is a problem soap, I would assume it's going to be Eucamint, because it might just be too overpowering, although I've found that the more you smell them, they seem to mellow out. I imagine that after a shower with these, the smell will dissipate enough that it will be more mild. Still, with the exception of Tango Mango; a very good smelling soap mind you, I'd say they are all very "manly" scents, and I'm excited to try them out. Ok, so I'm a little over a week in, and here's my final take. (I made it through Activated Charcoal and Tango Mango): First, the scents ABSOLUTELY mellow out when used to actually shower with them. My wife, who admittedly isn't really up on me like that, hasn't even mentioned me smelling differently than the last 11 years. So, if she's even noticed, it's not on a level to make a fuss about. This is important because fresh from the box, these things have some powerful scents, but they are definitely tamed by washing with them. The bars last ABOUT 7 showers. Obviously, your mileage will vary based on how long you're in the shower, how much you scrub, how you store them, etc, but I was able to get 7 GOOD showers out of these. I have them in these natural sisal (whatever that is) exfoliating bags that help lather and store the soap, and really did some good scrubbing in my showers. The bars lather decently, but I'm not sure how much the bag helps with that. If you are a once a day showerer, a bar a week is a very fair approximation of what you'll get. I definitely felt.....SOMETHING I didn't before with my shower gel showers. I don't know if that's the moisturizing, or the exfoliation, but my skin felt a little different after showering. A decent buy. I'm not thrilled, but I'm not upset either. I don't think it changed my life, or even the way I shower, but I'm not mad at the experiment. I may try the Dr. Squatch soaps to see how all these stack up.

I love these soaps smell feel everything about them . Im a diesel mechanic so I get dirty and it does a great job.

Bought this as a gift for my husband, and he loves these soaps; he even keeps a few bars in his car for the scent, lol. until he needs to use it. I keep him stocked. I also love the smell as well

The product is definitely worth the value. You get 6 bars for a decent price. One bar lasts about a week with excessive use, so if you’re not using it excessively it should last longer. Some of the scents are decent. My favourite one’s so far is Alpine & Spice, Tango Mango and Oatmeal Shea. The other’s are decent I guess but I’m not a huge fan of the smells. I haven’t had the chance to try the Charcoal but I’m sure it will measure up. The box it comes in is nice. However, the way the box is packaged causes the most over powering bar to be present the most, making it hard to smell the others. I think this is because of the Eucamint and Patchouli Lime. The product does work great though on the skin and hasn’t dried it out. I get this type of rosacea rash on my face and these soaps has helped tremendously. I do find the scent on your skin to not last that long, but this is probably because you get nose blind to the scents after awhile. Either way, these bars of soap are great in general and great for the price.

These are real soap that lathers quite quickly. Love the scents. Price is good

love the soap

Smells great and clean very well.
