About L'Occitane
L'Occitane en Provence, commonly known as L'Occitane, is a global retailer of body, face, fragrances, and home products based in Manosque, France. Founded in 1976 by Olivier Baussan at the age of 23, the brand's initial products were based on essential oils and natural ingredients, a tradition that continues to this day. Baussan began by distilling rosemary essential oil to sell locally and expanded L'Occitane's range to include soaps and creams made from locally sourced ingredients like lavender, shea butter, and verbena. L'Occitane aims to preserve traditional Provencal techniques for producing its products and is known for its commitment to sustainability, traceability of ingredients, and support of local farmers and communities.
L'Occitane has grown from a small operation in Provence to an international presence with hundreds of boutiques worldwide, yet it maintains its core values of authenticity, simplicity, and sensory experience. The brand is celebrated for its high-quality, luxurious products that offer a touch of Provence's beauty and lifestyle to customers around the globe. L'Occitane's fragrances, often inspired by the landscapes of the South of France, include a range of scents designed to captivate the senses, from floral and fruity to woody and aromatic. The company's dedication to social and environmental causes has further solidified its reputation as a brand that cares not only for the quality of its products but also for the well-being of the planet and its people.
