"Unquestionably the best English translation of Herodotus to have appeared in the past half-century." --The Times Literary Supplement In Tom Holland's vibrant translation, one of the great masterpieces of Western history springs to life.

Long lasting soap, worth the cost, smells great
Scent: Citrus + Eucalyptus, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 3)
I love Huron's products. Yeah, this soap is a little pricier than most, but it has one of my favorite scents from any bar soap, the Citrus + Eucalyptus. In fact, I’ve already bought the cologne of that scent.
The fact that these bars are triple milled makes it worth every penny. It really does last longer.
Having now tried the Sea Salt + Driftwood bar soap, I also like this fragrance, but not quite as much as the Citrus + Eucalyptus. It's a little warmer/earthier in fragrance, so consider that if you're looking for strictly fresh and light. A little more expensive than most off the shelf brands of soap, but worth it in my opinion.

Leaves the hubby feeling clean and fresh!
Scent: Citrus + Eucalyptus, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 3)
My husband loves trying new soaps. He looks for a few things when selecting one: (1) a great smell, (2) a good lather, and (3) after use, a clean feeling. He found that this soap (by Huron) does have a unique smell. It is a blend of citrus and eucalyptus, which is a little different from other soaps that he has tried in the past. He found that this soap lathers well, but warns that it does get really slippery (which could be the result of the shape). And he has also found that following a hard workout and showering, his skin feels clean. This produce does not include any of the bad stuff like parabens, phthalates, silicone, aluminum or sulfate. And he has not noticed any itching, dryness or irritation (on his skin) after using this product. Overall, he recommends it.
