Four Thieves - CINNAMON • ALLSPICE • CLOVE • EUCALYPTUS
Named after a band of thieves who used a botanical blend to protect themselves from the plague in medieval Europe, the Four Thieves recipe is an age-old remedy reimagined for a cozy, spicy scent.
This botanic soap is an all-natural castile-style soap enriched with skin-nourishing nutrients like aloe vera, coconut oil, and shea butter to aid in the saponification process and gently cleanse for supple, smooth hands. The velvety touch and warm aroma of cinnamon, clove, eucalyptus, and allspice offer a brief sensory ritual throughout the day. Gently massage into hands to escape to candle-lit bistros, cabin getaways, and the bustling markets of Marrakesh.
The Four Thieves scent is inspired by a blend of botanicals once believed to prevent the spread of the plague in medieval Europe. Named after a band of thieves who used the tincture to protect themselves from disease as they robbed the dead, the Four Thieves recipe is an age-old remedy that AMASS has reimagined for modern life.
What does “Castile” mean?
In earlier centuries, an all-vegetable-based soap was made in the Castile region of Spain from local olive oil. By the turn of this century, “Castile” had come to mean any vegetable oil-based soap, as distinct from animal (tallow) fat-based soap. Unfortunately, many synthetic detergent blends are deceptively labeled as “liquid soap” despite the fact that they contain absolutely no real soap whatsoever.
Do your soaps contain any foaming agents or detergents like Sodium Lauryl Sulfate?
Absolutely not. What you’re using is a genuinely ecological and simple soap – not a complex blend of detergents with a higher environmental impact due to the waste stream created during manufacturing and the detergents’ slower biodegradability.
Key Ingredients:
Aloe Vera and Coconut Oil: Gently nourish the skin for silky smooth hands.
Cinnamon, Allspice, Clove, and Eucalyptus Essential Oils: Soothe the spirit and minimize the drying effects of alcohol.
