"Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic." - Carl Sagan, Cosmos

This incredibly creamy goat’s milk soap smells like deep, warm vanilla. Why? If you’re anything like me, you love the smell of old books. And as per Smithsonian Magazine,

“A common smell of old books, says the International League for Antiquarian Booksellers, is a hint of vanilla: “Lignin, which is present in all wood-based paper, is closely related to vanillin. As it breaks down, the lignin grants old books that faint vanilla scent.””

Paired with a quote from Carl Sagan stamped in gorgeous gold (like the gilt gold titles on the spines of old books), this goat’s milk soap is the perfect gift or shower staple for all of you book lovers out there. Your skin will be left feeling soft and clean, and you’ll smell delicious.

Pro tip: As with all bar soaps, these soaps last over twice as long if they are kept dry between uses on a well designed, no waste soap dish that drains water away.
