Petrichor Soap Brick

Let it Rain. On January 1st every year we celebrate Petrichor: the smell of the earth after a rain. Petrichor is caused by microbes in the soil interacting with warm rain, and it has intoxicated people for as long as the rains have been falling. The scent carries with it a type of raw, primal power. The sky has just taken a bath; the old, the sloughed-off, the no longer necessary have all been washed away. Our Petrichor Soap Bricks are individually made with kelp, eucalyptus, myrrh, and vetiver, mixed slowly into a base of nourishing olive oil and babassu oil. We make them once a year, and they sell out quickly. Wash away what no longer serves you. A reminder to wash away the old with a crisp and grounding scent that clears the mind. Scented with the pure essential oils of eucalyptus, myrrh, and vetiver to mimic the electric aroma of earth after rain.
