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. It's an entire mountain experience, handcrafted for your shower.
"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."
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.
- An Extra Moisturizing Formula: Our superfatting process leaves a portion of skin-loving oils in the final bar, creating a gentle lather that won't strip your skin.
This Is Why We Do It
"I love this soap!! The smell is invigorating and the grit is the perfect amount of exfoliation. I look forward to my showers now, it gets me going in the morning!"
The Ritual

INGREDIENTS
saponified oils of olive, coconut, palm (sustainably sourced), shea butter, essential oils: spruce, pine, and fir, phthalate-free fragrance, sage, zinc oxide.
Is the pine scent overpowering?Β No. It's crisp and refreshing, not air freshener intense. We blend spruce, pine, and fir essential oils with a touch of sage, so you get authentic forest without the chemical sharpness. It wakes you up in the shower but doesn't linger aggressively on skin.
Is the exfoliation too rough?Β The ground sage leaves are finely milled, so it's a gentle scrub, not sandpaper. You'll feel texture as you lather, enough to slough off dead skin without irritation. Most people find it invigorating rather than harsh.
Is this good for sensitive skin?Β The zinc oxide actually helps soothe reactive skin, and our superfatted formula means extra oils stay in the bar to moisturize rather than strip. That said, if your skin is extremely sensitive, the light exfoliation might not be for you. The ground sage is gentle, but it's still there.
