My partner goes through bars of soap fairly quickly, so I’d like to find a shower soap bar sold in bulk that’s around $1-2 a bar but without the horrible scent of Dove soap (it’s very artificial and too overpowering). Any recommendations?

Original Aleppo soap. Need about 3-4 pieces of it per year, they are odorless, or at least smell only slightly earthy.
Price here 4-6 euros per piece.
I use them for the face and my (arm-length) hair.

Oo, thanks! I hadn't thought of it before but I'd imagine a harder bar of soap would last longer. Will look into sourcing in my area. :)

Dettol Original antibacterial bar soap. Comes with no scent I notice. Maybe slightly lemon-y, at best.

Lush's Honey I washed the kids. The caramel scent makes it very hard to not bite the entire bar

Im interested as well because Dove is the only one that doesn't dry out my skin. They do have unscented Dove, but may be hard to find.

I keep it simple and cheap, Zest or Irish Spring.

Hadn't heard of Zest but that's definitely the type of soap we're looking for. I'll add it to the list, thanks! :)

I like Harry’s bar soap, specifically the Stone scent. It’s very subtle and not overpowering.

We've tried Harry's before and I really like it! just a little too far on the expensive side for how much we go through.

Dr. Bronners is a weird brand but really good products and I love their bar soap. I can only vouch for the eucalyptus scent though. Might slightly more and probably isn't in most stores so Amazon is usually the best

Reading the back of Dr. Bronners soap bottles is so fun, haha. Hadn't thought that they sell bar soap too though. Definitely going to try it out, thanks!
