Fer a Cheval (18)
Picture this: it's 1856. The streets of Marseille are bustling, and a peculiar scent wafts through the air... No, it's not the aroma of freshly baked baguettes or the salty sea breeze. It's the unmistakable fragrance of... soap. Yes, you read that right. Soap. But not just any soap. We're talking about the legendary Savon de Marseille – a sudsy sensation that's been keeping the French squeaky clean for over 160 years. And guess what? The soap saga continues! Fer à Cheval (that's 'horseshoe' in English – how's that for a clean sweep?) is still crafting this bubbly wonder using the same age-old techniques. So, next time you lather up, remember: you're not just washing away the day's grime. You're taking a foamy voyage through history.
