Heirloom Tomato Hand Soap

A hand soap with Flamingo Estate’s distinctive tomato-vine fragrance, layered with tarragon and black pepper. Keep it at the kitchen or bathroom sink for a green, herbal scent each time you wash your hands.

About Flamingo Estate

Flamingo Estate is a seven-acre garden in the hills of Los Angeles that its owner, Richard Christiansen, turned into a pantry and home brand: olive oil, honey, soaps and candles that begin with what grows there. Heirloom Tomato is its signature scent — the smell of the vine, green and peppery, rather than the fruit — and the hand soap is the version most people meet first, at a friend’s kitchen sink.

How to use

• Keep at a kitchen or powder-room sink
• Use as part of the Heirloom Tomato home collection
• Pair with the matching dish soap or candle for a coordinated botanical scent

Details

• Bottle size: 12 oz

Questions

Kitchen or bathroom? Both, but it is at its best in the kitchen, where the green scent clears garlic and onion from the hands.

Is it drying? No more than any good liquid soap; it rinses cleanly and leaves the scent, not a film.

A gift? With the dish soap, it is the housewarming gift that gets used the same day.

Pairs with

The Heirloom Tomato dish soap and the candle. Everything we carry from Flamingo Estate, and more for the table and kitchen.

Lello’s Point of View

Why we chose it. This may be the easiest way to understand Flamingo Estate: something as ordinary as hand soap made memorable through a scent that smells like touching a tomato vine in the garden.

What it makes better. It makes the sink feel considered and leaves a green, herbal impression instead of the generic sweet fragrance found in so many hand soaps.

How we would use it. Kitchen first, powder room second. Pair it with the matching dish soap for a housewarming gift that will be opened and used immediately.

Who will love it. Gardeners, fragrance people, design lovers and hosts who notice the small things their guests touch.

Why it earns its place. The distinctive Heirloom Tomato, tarragon and black-pepper fragrance in a 12 oz American-made hand soap turns a high-frequency household basic into one of the details people remember about a home.
