Sentimental value... and more

                                     
                      Carbolic soapGood old-fashioned effective soap for those who get really mucky! 
 mild disinfectant with very distinctive smell. 
According to Wikipedia...
Once widely available in the United States and the most common disinfectant cleaner in hospitals, it has disappeared from all but specialty retail stores. It is distributed to disaster victims for routine hygiene by the Red Cross and other relief organizations.[3][4] Remembered by many older Americans as the household soap of their childhood, it is sought after by some for its nostalgic sweet, tarry smell. By killing bacteria, it acts as a mild deodorant when used as a body soap.[5]
