L’OCCITANE

With nothing but an alambic, a small truck and a solid knowledge of plants, Olivier Baussan, at the age of 23, distills Rosemary essential oil which he sells on the local markets of Provence. The L’OCCITANE journey begins.

Our online magazine, Fantastic Provence, is launched in order to promote the knowledge and love of the south of France. In order to benefit both our customers and the environment, L’OCCITANE begins to offer eco-refill packaging.

Our effective products are rich in natural active ingredients and essential oils, which are often organic and always of controlled origin. Our body care, skincare, bath and hair care products feature luxurious fragrances and textures from ingredients like shea butter, lavender, verbena and immortelle!

L’OCCITANE now has over 2,000 stores all over the world!
