Product Details
Commonly used all over France, this is a traditional product made in the Marseille region for over a hundred years. It has incredibly effective cleaning power and a wide range of uses on stains, dirt, grease and grime. It comes in several different versions, unscented and scented with added Lavender Essential Oil or Citrus Essential Oils. The unscented version has a strong very traditional soap smell, almost like an old fashioned coal tar smell. The versions that are scented smell wonderfully of natural Lavender or Citrus Fruits.
Used diluted or straight from the bottle it cleans walls, floors, leather, glass, kitchen, bathrooms, garden, plants, furniture, silverware, copper and jewellery.
