Works for me and my three dogs!
I use this soap for myself and my three dogs. I live in a wooded area find that it helps repel ticks. It’s a must in spring, summer and fall in northeastern USA. Thanks!

Old Whippersnapper’s Carbolic Soap – The Pure Phenol Experience!
I’ve finally found the true essence of carbolic soap with Old Whippersnapper’s Carbolic Soap, and it’s everything I’ve been searching for.
Let’s talk about the scent. This is where the soap truly shines for me. Unlike many other “carbolic” soaps that lean on cresylic acid and the distinct smell of creosote as its signature smell, Old Whippersnapper uses pure Carbolic Acid (Phenol). My nose confirmed this by directly comparing it to the pure phenol scent from a Chloraseptic spray (minus the cherry, of course!).
You get that classic, unmistakable, strong aroma: deeply medicinal, tarry, and smoky but with a prominent leathery quality. It’s less astringent than other formulas, making it uniquely comforting. This isn’t just a faint whiff; it’s a powerful, nostalgic presence that perfectly fills the air, signaling genuine cleanliness.
The performance is equally satisfying. It builds a beautiful, rich lather and, crucially for my sensory needs, it rinses incredibly cleanly. No lingering, weird film or residue is left on my skin, just a feeling of pure cleanliness. Yes, it’s a potent cleanser and can be drying, but that’s a small trade-off easily managed with my unscented moisturizer afterward.
This soap is more than just a product; it’s a direct, sensory link to my great-grandparent's hygienic practices and the “old reliable” hygiene of a simpler time. It’s profoundly comforting and bringing back so many good memories, making it invaluable, especially now. If you’re like me and appreciate authentic, strong, and unique scents with a rich history, you must experience Old Whippersnapper’s Carbolic Soap. It’s the real McCoy.
5/5 Nostalgia in soap form!

Tea Tree soap
I've been using Old Whippersnapper's Tea Tree soap for several years, and I'm very happy with it. I use it in the shower and wash my hair and body with it. My scalp and skin always feel good afterwards. My only observation (I guess it's a result of the soap being all natural) is that the bars don't seem to last very long. When they get down to being too small to bathe with, I toss the fragments in my shaving mug.

Absolutely lovely
I did as surprised at how well the dish soap worked, cuts grease very well. And it doesn't bother my hands. Will purchase again
