Why Choose Aiglé Savon de Marseille Parfumé
A household classic
Aiglé is a familiar name in Algerian homes, and this blue bar brings back memories of family bathrooms and laundry days.
Glycerin softness
The pack promises Douceur Glycérinée, a soft, gentle feel thanks to glycerin.
Fresh perfumed scent
A clean, light floral fragrance that leaves hands and fabrics smelling fresh.
Big, long-lasting bar
At 250g, this solid bar lasts much longer than small bathroom soaps.
A Bar Found in Every Algerian Home
Across Algeria, a solid bar of Marseille-style soap has always had many jobs. It sits by the kitchen sink for washing hands, goes into the bathroom for daily use and comes out on laundry day to scrub collars, cuffs and baby clothes by hand. Aigle Savon de Marseille is one of the bars families reach for, and its bright blue wrapper with yellow flowers is easy to recognize.
The Marseille soap style comes from a long Mediterranean tradition of firm, simple bars made for cleaning. You can read more about the history of Marseille soap, which has influenced soap making all around the Mediterranean, including North Africa.
For Algerian families living in the USA, the smell of this soap is pure nostalgia. It recalls grandmothers washing clothes in a basin, freshly cleaned homes before Eid and the familiar scent of the family bathroom.
Many people also like having one practical bar that does several jobs. Instead of a different product for every task, a single Aigle Savon de Marseille bar can handle hand washing, small laundry jobs and quick cleaning around the sink.

Texture and Scent
The bar is firm and smooth, so it does not melt away quickly. It lathers easily with water and rinses clean. The glycerin gives a softer feel compared with plain laundry soap, which is why many families also use it for hand washing.
Because the bar is large and dense, it is easy to hold and comfortable to use for longer scrubbing jobs, such as washing a basin of clothes or cleaning kitchen cloths and towels. You can also cut it into smaller pieces with a knife and keep one at each sink in the house, a common habit in Algerian homes that makes one bar last for weeks.
Between uses, the bar dries quickly and stays firm as long as it is not left sitting in water. A simple draining dish is all you need to keep it in good shape until the very last sliver.
The fragrance is fresh, clean and lightly floral. It is noticeable while you wash and leaves a pleasant, gentle scent afterward without being overpowering.
How to Use Aigle Savon de Marseille
- Wet your hands or the fabric with warm water.
- Rub the bar to create a rich lather.
- For hand laundry, rub the bar directly on stains, collars and cuffs, then scrub gently.
- Rinse well with clean water.
- Let the bar dry on a draining soap dish between uses so it lasts longer.
Easy Routine: Hand-Washing Delicates the Algerian Way
You will need: 1 Aigle Savon de Marseille bar, a basin of lukewarm water, a soft brush or clean cloth, a towel.
- Soak the garment in lukewarm water for 5 minutes.
- Rub the soap bar lightly over any stains or marks.
- Gently rub the fabric between your hands or with a soft brush to lift the dirt.
- Rinse twice in clean water until the water runs clear.
- Press out the water with a towel and dry flat or on a hanger away from direct sun.
