Smells like French Spirit
French soaps are renowned, lovely to use and make great presents.
So I'm always on the lookout for French soap wherever I go. A recent trip to Hamburg drew me once again to the Perle Shop (they carry some cute French products). So when I saw the colorful box with the big blue RIVALE written on it I thought "bonjour" and snapped it up!
Turns out Claus Porto was saying "bom dia" to me. The Grapefruit Fig bath soap which tempted me is in fact made by the oldest, family-owned soap manufacturer in Portugal. Oh, I thought- almost in disappointment until I turned over the brightly designed box and read the fine print: "Aromatic composition (made in France)".

Thank you for your helpful blog. I live in France and am trying to learn the language. I can speak it reasonably well, but my comprehension is poor. I dont think you are a foufou at all. I think you are very clever!
Best wishes,
Seamus
