Asking for a friend who is a big fan of this type of soap (personally i don’t even really know what it is lol…).

She usually buys this soap in Asia where it is A LOT cheaper than in Switzerland, now she asked me if it is also available in Brazil (given the large population of Asian descent).

Does anybody know if it’s available here and if it’s the same quality as in Asia? And what search terms would I have to use in Mercadolivre? I live in a small village, so I have to order a lot of things with ML).

I googled to see what it was and it seems like it's being sold on Amazon. Maybe search there?

Well, she may not be able to easily find her "sândalo" bar soap via MercadoLivre BUT maybe if you take her to some of the different shops in larger Brazilian cities she might fing other incredibly irresistible scents in different forms that will please her. My partner is a fan of the L'Occitane au Brésil franchise but there are others.

I find a lot of the tropical scents quite interesting even though I have my favorite traditional scents for soaps and perfumes.

Good luck!
