The beautiful city of Mysore lies at the heart of India's sandalwood growing area and is the world's main source of essential sandalwood oil. As long ago as 1916, the Maharaja of Mysore established the first factory there for the distillation of sandalwood oil, the most important ingredient in Mysore Sandalwood Soap. Still made in the same way from vegetable extracts, including a generous proportion of pure sandalwood oil, Mysore Sandalwood Soap is renowned for its natural and exotic fragrance. Its luxurious lather and gentle cleansing action leave the skin feeling fresh and healthy. Made in Bangalore, India.
