Greenwich Bay Trading CompanyYUNDOO Soap Sampler 16 pack of 1.9oz bars - Bundle 16 items

[Edit: Note some bars contain wheat]My 16-pack of decoratively wrapped soaps was sold by Amazon and arrived in a clear plastic bag inside a box of multiple items I'd ordered (based on other reviews, it sounds like different sellers package them differently). As multiple reviews note, these 1.9 oz (~1.9"x1.9"x0.75") soaps are smaller than the typical full-size soap bar (the company also appears to sell full-sized versions), however, they are still a little more than twice the size of a typical guest soap. I personally like this intermediate soap size for my hands, but I could see how someone with larger hands might find them too small. The individual paper wraps for each soap are lovely (nicer than apparent from the photo - definitely gift quality). I've opened 3 soaps so far: the Orchid Jojoba, the Violet and the Almond. These soaps are all light in color and fresh smelling, with somewhat different colors/tones, fragrances and feels-to-the-touch. The Almond (a beige 'exfoliating' bar) smells very much like it's namesake and has very small exfoliating flecks (the soap feels _mostly_ smooth to the touch, and any exfoliation is not really noticeable to me when using the soap in the shower). The Violet (creamy in both appearance and texture) has a fresh, very vaguely floral scent - not an obvious violet scent. I like more traditional violet scents (and the violet was one reason I ordered this), so I am a little disappointed in that, but the nice creamy feel makes up for it. The Orchid Jojoba (a light mint-green color with small flecks) has a slightly more slippery feel and a stronger somewhat different floral scent, but with a fresh soapy undertone that is similar to the violet. The soap quality for all three is very high, in my opinion - as nice as any soap you might get at World Market, but more reasonably priced per ounce. I also love that they are vegetable-based soaps (since I try to avoid soaps that contain animal products) and here made in the US. I have smelled most of the still-wrapped soaps through the wrappers, and the scents are definitely distinguishable once they air out (when the bag is initially opened, there is a strong perfumy scent from all of the soaps being sealed together in the bag, but it dissipates when they are separated and out in the air), but many do have a similar fresh/soap undertone. I personally like all of the scents so far, and have not experienced any sensitivity (which I mention since some reviewers said they did; I occasionally have with other products, but different people are sensitive to different things). I will almost certainly re-order this at some point. I plan to give some away as stocking-stuffers, and am considering ordering some full-sized bars as gifts. Overall, I consider this package a pretty good deal and a good way to sample this company's different soap products before ordering the full-sized soaps, now that so many of us are doing more shopping online. The company has gained a customer.

I love them. There are just what I want for my gift basket business. Fantastic value and great quality. The packaging will compliment many of my custom gift themes.

Great fragrance and lather

We gifted most of these but kept Gardener's.It probably applies to many of their scents but the Gardener's is not too over powering when you wash with it, yet it's so robust that it scented our entire bedroom and bathroom (in a good, surprising way).We came home from a trip and thought someone had left a scented candle going in our room, that's how refreshing and power the scent was.

These are great soaps in the guest bathroom, nice lather and scent
