DANTE NESTI, founder of our company. In September 1945, at the age of twenty, Dante Nesti started making soap his own home with a small 50- litre cauldron. By 1947 his operation had become a reliable firm registered with the Florence Chamber of Commerce. Today the Nesti Soap Works, with its 70,000 and 120,000-litre cauldrons, is one of the major plants in Europe for the production of soap by the classical cauldron method. The factory management is proudly directed by the son Roberto and his wife that, since 40 years with the help of his family had pursued a balance between innovation and tradition.

DEI COLLI FIORENTINI

An aromatic journey through the bloomy perfumes of the Florentine Hills for the well-being of body and spirit. Rich and romantic, these floral soaps gently cleanse, soften and smooth the skin.

Relaxing fragranced soap beautifully handcrafted using ingredients inspired by the Florentine countryside. The long lasting soap form the collection with a rich lather that helps regenerate skin.

Beautifully fragranced. Each Nesti Dante soap has been made in the traditional way to obtain a softer and richer natural bar soap.

ROMANTICA

The aim of maintaining the high-standard of excellence, which characterizes all of Nesti Dante’s natural soaps, has led Nesti’s master soapmakers through the wonders of Tuscany, in search of six special bouquets that could truly represent their passion for soap making. They have selected the essences of the most romantic and emotional elements of our region and made them the heart of six new Nesti Dante soaps. Because they understand that the best bouquets are both an endearing part of our daily lives, as well as encapsulating our fondest memories. The magic of flowers evokes the most unforgettable moments in our lives; the symphony of floral notes creates pure and emotive fragrant sensations.

EMOZIONI IN TOSCANA

First-sight love experienced by passionate connoisseurs. Cities of art, monasteries, hamlets, rural estates, hay lofts, forests, green hills, landscapes changing in color with the changing season: pictures you can see from the train window traveling across Tuscany. Nature, art and taste for good cooking are all tied together, a nature perceived as a friend to be respected, to please and to be shaped by enhancing its beauty; art inspired by nature which man has transformed into landscape. The sensibility and wisdom of Nesti Dante, of Florence, towards nature, art and life, express themselves as a tribute to their land with an evocative line of natural soaps called Emozioni in Toscana.
