L'Occitane lavender liquid soap is of superb quality, very thick and rich with the scent of true French lavender (Lavandula dentata). It makes a nice creamy lather and does not dry your skin. The bottle and pump are quite sturdy. It makes an excellent, slightly luxurious gift (or self-indulgent treat!) for anyone who enjoys lavender. Very highly recommended.

I've used this soap for many years. After some ten years of dipping my hands in photo chemicals without gloves (before OSHA and safety equipment), I developed allergies to most soaps. Dish soaps were the worst. My hands would break out and itch. The dermatologist would give me lots of stuff that never solved the problem. This is the only soap I've found that does not make my hands break out. Even with frequent hand washing during the day, there's never been any problems. So if you have sensitive skin, this is well worth the money. For me it is not a luxury, it is a necessity, and it is the best.

To be fair this is a nice soap, but for $22? I received this as a gift and liked it well enough, but when I saw the price I knew I'd never purchase it for myself. It was really no better or worse than cheaper soap.
