I'm sure my mum or grandma used to buy this and sometimes Lux soap. BTW, found this risqué ad when looking for dates/places the company operated. http://www.theenglishgroup.co.uk/blog/2013/08/12/you-wash-my-back%e2%80%a6/

I buy Pears which is still available here. It smells wonderful (and I'm not allergic to it.) Looks expensive, but really cheap here compared to everything else - and twice as nice.

That does seem a bit racy for the times!
