Creating Artisanal Ohayo Soaps

We mix cultures, rhythms, and fragrances to create a bar of soap that you gift yourself or someone you love. The traditional method of creating handmade soaps hasn't undergone much change in a few hundred years. While the thought is romantic, it is physical labor dependent on natural elements.

Handcrafted soaping is much like farming. Humidity and temperature levels significantly affect the behavior of every ingredient in the soaping process. Everybody is the main character here. No extras.

What smells very strong off the amber bottle doesn't necessarily convert to the same after it mixes with the other characters in the cauldron. Ultimately, because we love playing with the chemistry, the music, the fragrances, and the colours, we try to create a bar that you might love to take back home with you.
