The crisp, evergreen scent of Southern Oregon's tallest peak. There's a moment on the trail up Mt. Ashland where the air changes. It becomes crisp, clean, and saturated with the scent of high-altitude evergreens. This beloved soap is our tribute to that feeling, blending sharp notes of spruce, pine, and fir with a grounding hint of sage. We infuse it with real ground sage leaves for an earthy, trail-like texture and add zinc oxide to help soothe wind-chapped skin. The whole mountain, in a bar. "For me, the scent of Mt. Ashland is the smell of home. It's not just pine; it's more complex. I wanted to capture that specific, sacred feeling of the mountain air and the earth under your boots. The ground sage and zinc oxide make it feel even more like the real thing." — Emily Whitlock, Co-Founder & Formulator Why You'll Love The Mt. Ashland Soap Bar An Authentic Forest Aroma: A refreshing, natural fragrance from our signature blend of phthalate-free fragrance and pure essential oils like spruce, pine, and fir. Gentle, Earthy Exfoliation: Real, finely ground sage leaves provide a mild, herbaceous scrub that evokes the feeling of the forest floor. Soothes & Protects Skin: A touch of zinc oxide, known for its skin-protecting and anti-inflammatory properties, helps to calm skin after exposure to the elements.
