Citrus + Cedar Artifacts Soap Bar
Archive No. 02
A study in contrast and temporal shifts. This second entry in our Artifact series explores the tension between the fleeting brightness of high-altitude sun and the ancient, shadowed stillness of a subalpine forest. It is a dual-layered experience, utilizing a heavy "Cloud" base for a voluminous, energetic lather that yields to a deep, resinous finish.
-
The Discovery: A vibrant, sharp top note of Cold-Pressed Lemon grounded by the dry, balsamic heart of Himalayan Cedarwood.
-
The Experience: The wash begins with a "spark"—a bright, citrus-forward energy that mimics the first light hitting the peaks. As the lather warms with the steam, the brighter notes evaporate to reveal the Cedarwood. It transforms into a heavier scent—woody, slightly smoky, and deeply meditative. It is designed for those moments when you need to feel both awake and unshakeable.
The Provenance
As an Artifact, this bar is a singular batch, never to be replicated in exactly this ratio:
-
The Base: Our signature goat milk formula for a pH-balanced, skin-loving silkiness.
-
The Mineral: Yellow Kaolin Clay for a gentle draw and a natural, ochre-hued aesthetic.
-
Botanical: A custom-aged blend of Lemon and Cedarwood Atlas essential oils.
-
Format: 3.5 oz, a temporary resident of your apothecary shelf.
Note: The high citrus content makes this bar exceptionally bright upon the first use, while the Cedarwood has been "fixed" in the clay to ensure the woody base remains until the very last sliver.
