Nyassa is a well known natural bath & body product brand based in Mumbai. Just two months ago they launched a new line of fresh handmade soaps (28!) Today I’m reviewing two of them.
Price: ₹250 for 150gms
Though the soap can’t be called 100% natural (it does contain SLS & some other things) it is made of mostly natural ingredients & is 100% vegetarian. Nyassa also doesn’t test on animals.
Who doesn’t love mangoes? (OK I know one girl that doesn’t but I still find it rather odd). Let me declare, once & for all that I love everything about mangoes – they smell & taste divine!
I got this soap just as mango season was drawing to a close (& now it’s done! No mangoes till next year *sob*) This soap is named after the Alphonso mango which is rightly called the king of mangoes. This soap smells exactly like ripe alphonso mangoes! It’s a very strong scent & it doesn’t smell artificial. It contains mango butter, mango leaf extract & raw cane sugar.
The soap is slightly pricey but rather large too. The moment I got it I cut it into two piece so it’ll last longer. I’ve been keeping it in a soap dish & so far the texture is still firm, with no sogginess/melting.
It moisturisers my skin enough that I don’t feel the need to use a body lotion or butter afterwards (though that might change in winter).

There is not too much about this soap that’s different from the Alphonso soap. Scent wise, this one smells exactly like Lilies, & again the scent is pretty strong. I don’t usually like floral scents much, but I don’t mind this one. But my mom (who likes floral scents) likes this a lot more than me, so it obviously boils down to personal preference.
As I said, the rest of it is pretty much the same- it lathers decently enough, doesn’t soggy. I sort of wish the fragrance lingered a bit longer though. It doesn’t last more than an hour.



Overall I like Lily of the Valley but I love the Alphonso soap. The latter will be a definite repurchase, especially during the months Alphonso mangoes aren’t in season (which is about 10 months in a year!) I’d really like to try the Café Noir soap, because it has activated charcoal & I’ve been curious to try something with it for a while.
love,
Magali
