    I saw this at walmart for 97 cents a bar, so I picked it up. Wonder if anyone else has tried it.

    The Ingredients are Sodium Tallowate, water, Sodium Cocoate, Glycerin, Fragrance, Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel flower, Sodium Choride, Titanium Dioxide, Tetrasodium EDTA, Yellow 5, Red 33.

    Doesn't seem horrible and it smells like almonds....I guess it's just a fragrance though.

    Lavender is the only Yardley I've tried. I agree - it's ok stuff!

    I just bought a bar of the Lavender, got it for .97 cents as well. It's the next bar I will try just have to finish current one.

    I've tried several varieties of Yardley and it is ok. I'm waiting to deplete the soaps I'm using now and get some Speick and MWF for bathing.

    Good luck with the MWF bar soap. I ordered a bar and was looking forward to it but it just wouldn't lather in my water and I chucked it after two showers.

    I just want to say I really dig MWF bath soap. I have really hard well H20. I use it with a shower scrubbie and get great lather. My real problem with the MWF shower soap is it cost a lot but doesn't last long. Maybe because I have hard H20 ?

    I have tried the Lavender and the Oatmeal, and prefer the oatmeal. It has some exfoliate. And you can't beat the price.

    Yardley is a bargain for bath soap. I like the Oatmeal Almond scent best, but as you can read above many like the Lavender. The lather and life are well above the price point, though a little shy IMHO of the best bath soaps.

    MWF to me is a good bath soap, but not worth the price point I can find in the USA.

    Overall, my favorite bath soap is Pre De Provence. It's a french milled soap with super rich lather, great scents, and a decent price point. Definitely more than Yardley, but at $7 for a huge 8 ounce bar, it's not ultra expensive either.

    Where do you get your PDP soap from?

    I get it at a local botique type shop. If you don't have a local source, Amazon sells it.

    I've been using the Yardley for a couple days now. I have to say I like it, it feels good smells good, and leaves me squeaky clean! What more can I ask for?

    The Frenchy Bee online has decent prices for PDP. It might be a little cheaper at the Frenchy Bee than Amazon. I think the bee sells through Amazon also.

    Yardley is one of the few mass market soaps that provides an excellent value and quality ingredients!
