Morphology
The meaning is directly built from 'foam' (bubbles on a liquid) + 'bath' (immersing in water) and denotes either a bath that has foam or a product that produces foam for a bath. This compositional, literal relation is common and predictable, so a B1 learner who knows both words would readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Foam bath comes from the simple image of a bath that makes foam, the many bubbles you get when you add a special liquid or powder. So a foam bath is the liquid or powder you put in the tub to 'make bubbles', add a nice smell, and make the water feel softer.
