Trivia: In France, during the reign of Louis XIV, bathing was considered an oddity, not the norm. King Louis guillotined three soap makers for making soap that irritated his very sensitive royal skin. In desperation the four remaining soap makers in Paris got together to invent a process of pouring and curing the soap - taking a month to make a single bar. This is how the world got handmade soap.
