we take for granted,

 that with a little bit of forethought can become from the utilitarian and mundane to exorbitantly luxurious, take the above, it looks like a piece of cheese, but is in fact the world’s most expensive bar of soap, the Khan Al Saboun brand of handmade soap created by Bader Hassen & Sons, a soap factory in Tripoli, Lebanon, that makes a variety of luxury soaps and skincare products containing essential oils and natural fragrances. They are sold in some of the most exclusive shops in Dubai and the UAE, but its most expensive product is only offered to special guests and important personalities.

back in 2015, when the BBC first featured the world’s most expensive bar of soap, it was reported that the luxurious product had a rough texture, because of the diamond and gold powder, but Amir Hasen said it doesn’t hurt the skin, and described using it as a delight for the senses, “That kind of soap changes your shower from daily routine to a pleasure,” Hasen said. “It’s not only the most expensive soap in the world because it’s only made of gold and diamond, it’s really something special, it has a psychological and spiritual effect on human being.” according to Al-Ain, the world’s most expensive bar of soap contains 17 grams of 24-karat gold, a few grams of diamond powder, pure olive oil, organic honey, aged oud and date and here is a nice touch, the bar of soap is now handcrafted to spell the recipient’s name and plated with 24-karat gold, so can you afford a bar of soap? yours for just $2,800 a bar, I wonder if they sell them by the box? well you never know buying in bulk might save you a penny or two!
