Borotalco Bath Soap -Say Goodbye

Post by BullGoose »

I just tried reordering Borotalco Bath soap only to discover that it has been discontinued. If you are a fan and can find any, now is the time to hoard. 8)

Another one bites the dust, crap. I was going to email you Phil but I guess I don't need to now.

I have four bars coming from FLA at what I consider higher than normal pricing but I hear you got to pay to play. :(

Malocchio, this appears to be a good find for a lot of Italian made products. Thanks for the information. It appears to be be flush with Borotalco products, at least for now.

I don't think so Clive. My soaps on hand range from Floris Edwardian Bouquet (old formula) to Yardley Lavender from Dollar Tree (yes, it costs one dollar) and use them all with equanimity.

Floris in the day was great - Gordon turned me on to Rose Geranium and it was so good that in fact, my daughter wanted a three bar set to take with her when she left home for UT-Knoxville. and was sad when I told her it could not be replinished.
