The Ultimate Olive Oil Experience! Luxurious Olive Oil natural skin care, hand made at the factory, see the products being made then test, try & indulge. Treat yourself to extra virgin olive oil, infused oils and a scrumptious range of gourmet condiments, tapenades and table olives. TripAdvisor No 1 "Thing to Do" in Wilyabrup Margaret River region.
Vasse Virgin is nestled in the heart of the Margaret River Region. At the end of the tree-lined drive, you'll find their Soap Factory - a converted machinery shed emitting the most wonderful aroma. A visit to the Factory allows you to witness the soap makers at work, as they hand blend a variety of luxurious natural body products using the finest extra virgin olive oil. 

Overlook the unique working factory and watch the entire process, from manufacture through to the individually hand packaged finished products. Chat with the soap makers, get advice on the best products for your skin type, and discover the unique characteristics of their natural and organic ingredients. Feel the difference by experiencing the products for yourself at their testing stations. Indulge in their complete range of skin and body care, ranging from moisturising lotions, skin balms and scrubs, to bath and massage oils, and shampoo. 

The creation of Vasse Virgin emerged when Louis and Edwina Scherini's three children, who suffered from eczema and dermatitis, were advised by Doctors not to use commercial body products. The Scherini's were inspired to create a chemical free alternative, incorporating extra virgin olive oil and essential oils, excellent for those with allergies or sensitive skin. The complete range of skin, body and hair care products caters for customers of all skin types, or those simply looking for a natural alternative.  
Vasse Virgin now also has a dedicated tasting room where you can sample a carefully selected range of olive oil varietals including estate and locally-grown extra virgin olive oils. For all those olive-lovers out there, a diverse array of both locally-grown and internationally sourced table olives await your taste buds. Enjoy a hosted tasting of our gourmet products and the wonderful flavour characteristics in their olive oils - intense fruit characters with strong pungency and often a distinct peppery undertone. 

Taste the delectable preservative-free gourmet food using natural ingredients, and marvel at the variety of produce available. A visit to the Vasse Virgin tasting room would not be complete without sampling the infamous Macadamia Pesto along with the scrumptious array of gourmet condiments ranging from hand-made tapenades, mustards, jams, pasta sauces and dukkah, to include a unique range of fruit vinaigrettes and balsamic vinegars, all made by their local Italian chef. It’s a virtual gastronomic delight! 

Indulge in the ultimate Vasse Virgin experience by joining one of their workshops or masterclasses! Learn from their trained team as they guide you through an expert olive oil tasting, or teach you how to craft your very own natural products.

Beautiful shop with a huge selection of soaps, olive oil and other natural and carefully curated products. Staff are helpful and more than willing to bring out a sample for you if you request it. Don’t forget to stroll around the olive vines outside as well if you have the time!

Beautifully laid out shop with lots of natural soaps, face moisturisers, candles, reed defusers, homewares and food. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.

First time I've visited Vasse Virgin's factory. I've purchased their hard scrub previously but from Margaret river store. But this factory ans store is something else! Beautiful grounds, lovely entry. Then the store is set out so beautifully 😍. The Tester station included almost every they sell, at a warm running water handwashing station, which is long enough for several people to wash their hands at at the same time. We even had a small group demonstration of how to use the products. I love that they're all natural. You can then move over to the other area nearby and try their delicious foods- relishes, oils, dukkahs, sauces etc. Again, beautifully laid out, and to cater to living in a covid world - all single use disposable testing spatulas and spoons, but all eco friendly. Absolutely loved this experience. Nothing was a hassle for the staff. You also get to see the wares being packaged which is interesting. Don't leave the region without visiting! All their items are available to purchase online as well 👍 and they have a Rewards program but only online.
