The Perth Soap Co. takes bar soaps up to the next level by using premium ingredients and adding bespoke fragrances.

To keep your skin moisturized and glowing, they also add argan oil, one of those ingredients that are so revolutionary, once you see what it does for your skin, you can never go without it.

They also call their soaps "cleansing bars," which I think is so smart, and also apropos. I haven't used a bar of soap in years, preferring the more modern version of liquid. But a cleansing bar? Now, that's just smart thinking.

And the company is right - this isn't soap at all. The thick rectangular bars look like they've come right of a hotel. The boxes too are in muted earthy tones with a thin rim of gold that give it that elevated, sophisticated appearance.

There are three varieties to choose from:

Milk & Honey- Most soap maker's milk & honey is too sweet for my liking. Here, the scent is clean, yet warm. Like the memory of when you were bathed you as a child, or that feeling of getting out of the shower on a cold winter's day where you are warm and bundled under a thick terry robe. It's a little floral too, keeping it from being too heavy, too much, despite ingredients like sweet anise, orange, cinnamon and smooth sandalwood, that other soap companies would use in abundance. In other words, it's perfect.

Moroccan Spice - Do not for a minute think Moroccan Spice is anything but elegant. It is so delicate that the melange of Moroccan amber, spice, vanilla musk, grapefruit, fresh green and bergamot, accented with hints of cassis, jasmine and cedar wood is just discernible enough to be captivating and intriguing. A slight waft of exotic warmth exudes from the bar and your skin.

Rosemary Mint - This is one of those bars that you'll be so grateful for on those mornings where you need another hour of sleep and another cup of coffee to help get you going. This wake-up bar uses  natural rejuvenating and refreshing rosemary, peppermint, sage and thyme, to get your day started. It's works so well, you might just forgo the coffee. Okay, well, almost...

If you want a rich lather, and to feel squeaky clean but be left with soft, smooth pampered skin, all you need is The Perth Soap Co.
