6 Fabulously Fragrant Soap of the Month Clubs

Soap has a long history starting in Babylon in 2800 BC. Over the years, the popularity of soap has ebbed and flowed, culminating in modern society where you can join a soap of the month club for a few dollars and get fun, fragrant unique soap delivered via mail!

After the fall of Rome in 467 AD, the use of soap decreased drastically in Europe. However, by the 7th-century, soap making was a common practice found in France, Spain, and Italy. Until the 14th century, when it again fell out of favor contributing significantly to the Black Death Plague that swept through Europe.

However, outside of Europe, other countries like Iceland, Japan, and America, still used soap regularly. During the 1600s, American colonists produced the first commercial soap prior to that soap was a product made within the home.

Later when soap made a comeback in Europe, chemist, Nicholas Leblanc of France, invented a process for making soda ash from salt. This process allowed soap manufacturing to be one of the fastest-growing businesses in the US during 1860.

With such a very long history, it is no wonder that there is a wide variety of soaps available today. Handcrafted artisan soaps are a popular item to either purchase for oneself or give as a gift.

If you are ever looking for the perfect housewarming, shower, or even a thank you present, consider sending a soap of the month club subscription. It is a gift that everyone uses, and one that is always well received.

PS. Though we normally write about food, well, soap kinda smells and looks like food sometimes. Close enough! Though we don’t recommend you eat soap, even if it looks like real food!
