It was almost a century ago that Virgilio Valobra established in Genoa his plant for the manufacture of soap. He was determined to adhere strictly to the formulas and methods of the master soap manufacturers of the 18th century. Those  masters had made the Riviera between Portofino and Marseille a region renowned for the finest soap.

Fine processing:To preserve the precious ingredients intact Valobra has always used the ancient and expensive "boiling for strength" method.

Seasoning: Special attention is given to    seasoning, which takes at least six months. The soap thus becomes a highly refined and effective agent for gently cleansing the skin and improving its texture.

The purest ingredients: Over the decades the old treasured formulas were improved upon. The exclusive use of pure and selected ingredients results in a substance similar to the natural one that protects the skin. For super-rich lather virgin coconut oil from an island in the Indian Ocean is used.
