San Francisco Soap Company had some during Christmas. Not sure if it was a seasonal thing or what. Awesome soap, however! I had the sandalwood and it was one of the nicer ones I've used the past few months.
Spiced woods, sorry.
And yes it looks like they still sell a few versions. Worth $9? Hmm...I got mine for $6 and I'd easily stock up if I saw them again, so I think $9 isn't too awful. They last a good while.

Whose going to prison?
OK, that was just a joke. The only one I have used since I was a teen long ago is the old formula Musgo Real. It was an excellent soap and may still be but I haven't used it lately.
Hope you find something worthy.

My question is why. ? To hang off the faucet? To wrap around your wrist so you don’t drop it? (In your own shower....) why do I need soap on a rope?

Damn good question. For the same reason you need 12 razors and 15 brushes.

I love soap on a rope. Avon has I believe 3 different versions on sale right now.
Might be useful for camping though! Taking showers/baths in the river. Or community shower at a campground. I sure as heck wouldn’t want to drop anything on the floor in there. I’ve used one a few times.
Vintage Avon soap on a rope is readily available on the bay for reasonable prices. I've got an old Tai Winds that still smells good.
Along time ago when I was a teenager, one of my grandmothers used to buy me Soap on a Rope for my birthdays and for Christmas. I must have really smelled back in those days.
I think storage is an advantage of soap on a rope. Hanging to dry and not storing it on a ledge or in a dish. Maybe peace of mind for folks that are worried about bacteria.

Same here on both counts.... I think I had a stockpile of 5-6 before I went off to college where they came in handy in community showers.

Same here. There is nostalgia at play.
