A bar of pure Portuguese craft, wrapped by hand in matte black paper adorned with golden arabesques and nestled inside a handcrafted, fire-engraved wooden box. The soap itself is built on a 100% vegetable base with grape seeds worked in for a gentle exfoliating effect, all scented with the Ruby Red fragrance of Douro Valley grapes and lush red berries. The kind of thing that feels like a gift even when you buy it for yourself.
Why we love it
- We discovered Portus Cale at a small shop in the Azores curating the best of Portuguese-made goods. The owner schooled us on the ceramic work and the fragrance quality, and we've been hooked ever since
- The fire-engraved wooden box is a direct nod to Port Wine tradition. For the wine lovers, this one hits differently. It took us straight back to our time in the Douro Valley
- The box doesn't get thrown away. It lives on your vanity, your nightstand, your shelf. It's a keeper
- Grape seeds in the formula mean you're getting a gentle exfoliation with every wash. Skin feels it
