About L’OCCITANE:
The story begins in Provence, in 1976, when
L’OCCITANE was created by Olivier Baussan. Drawing inspiration from
Mediterranean cultures, he developed skincare products and fragrances that were
natural and authentic, effective and deliciously appealing.Today, L’OCCITANE expresses its art de vivre and its
know-how in its shops devoted to your well-being. L’OCCITANE is a socially responsible company,
committed to limiting the impact of its actions and products on the
environment. Moreover, we are constantly striving to further reduce this
impact. We have never tested our products on animals.From the very beginning, L’OCCITANE has established
links beyond the Mediterranean and supported sustainable development programs.
One example of this is Burkina Faso, where the company has brought together
women's cooperatives around the production of Shea Butter.Today, the L'OCCITANE Foundation
(fondation.loccitane.com) continues to support these projects – projects that
give the brand its meaning and purpose. We pursue our research with the aim of
offering the very best natural or certified-organic products.
