Have ya'll seen all the Bridgerton collab things- there are so many coming out! Some of them seem OK like the Betty Crocker stuff...I would be all over it if I didn't bake and prefer baking from scratch. They really seem like they tried to bring something different to the market too which is exciting. There are lip balms, soaps, spices. All the things. I'm probably gonna go searching after I finish this post to see if there is anything I need...
MFK claims:
À la rose Scented Soap gently cleanses your skin while releasing a fragrant, soft and delicately-textured foam. A light and sensual fragrance showcasing two exceptional roses: Damascena rose and Centifolia rose. They build on one another to offer a musky floral perfume which is in turn subtle and exuberant. À la rose boldly combines the elegance of radiant femininity with whimsical carefree style. For infinitely soft skin, the soap, stamped with the Maison Francis Kurkdjian monogram, is enriched with coconut oil, known for its hydrating, nourishing and invigorating properties.
Notes: Musks, Sweet Pea, Centifolia Rose, Damascene Rose, Violet
Made in France
In the meantime, a soap review. For awhile there I really wanted a rose scented soap. I tried a few- Pre De Provence Rose Petal, Mistral Rose Poivree, and Jo Malone Red Roses. I've come to learn rose soaps really aren't my jam. I don't really like them. And spending more didn't change that.
This was a treat myself type of thing. I had a coupon code that gave me ten dollars off so I decided to go for it and get something I wouldn't normally buy. I've used soaps from Chanel and Dior but this is priced well above those. I can tell you I would rather buy those over this anyway.
This is just powdery rose all the way. Very similar to Jo Malone Red Roses. Which I also didn't enjoy. It's pretty strong- not too strong. It doesn't linger or scent the bathroom once you rinse it away but most bar soaps don't. It just smells like an old lady rose scent.
I do want to talk about the packaging for a minute. You expect something lux in this price point. Not this. Comes in the same kind of box you can get a $5.00 soap in. I was so disappointed when I opened it. They need to do better.
The soap itself is a unique shape. Can't say I have had that shape before- that being said it's not my favorite shape. I think I prefer the way the Chanel/Fresh bar is shaped. It seems more luxurious.
The bar lathers well and is only slightly drying, and rinses clean. It's not immune to soap scum either- just like any other soap.
Ingredients:
Sodium sunflowerseedate; sodium cocoate; aqua (water/eau); parfum (fragrance); sodium chloride; citric acid; tetrasodium glutamate diacetate; glycerin; sodium hydroxide; citronellol; geraniol; geranyl acetate; limonene; hexamethylindanopyran; tocopherol; citrus aurantium peel oil; citrus limon (lemon) peel oil; alpha-isomethyl ionone; linalool; trimethylcyclopentenyl methylisopentenol; pinene; rose flower oil/extract; helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil; pelargonium graveolens flower oil; citral. -
Overall, I didn't like it at all. I think I am finally done looking for the perfect rose soap. The only rose scent for me is Lush Rose Jam (although it is a shower gel and not bar soap).
