I just might've found that in 's perfumes. Ingredients- Since they aren't provided in the Etsy Shop, I can't be entirely sure of the exact ingredients in these perfumes.

Ingredients (provided at drbronner.com)- "Water, Organic Coconut Oil*, Organic Ethanol, Organic Jojoba Oil, Organic Hemp Oil, Organic Lavender...
