The following are descriptions of the custom fragrance blends used in Dolce Mia’s new Fine Soaps of Sonoma County line.

In the vast market of over-perfumed, artificial and predictable smelling soaps, ours stands apart with fragrances that are rich, deep without being overpowering, and unique.
This fruity and refreshing scent could stir up an appetite. It’s the kind of delicious aroma that merits a warning like those found on surfboard Wax: “Do not eat/chew”. The pure, fragrant mango and tangerine are perfectly balanced—full of complex flavor with a tangerine high note and just sweet enough.
