The story begins in Provence in 1976, when Olivier Baussan created L'OCCITANE.

Inspired by the culture of the Mediterranean regions, he developed natural, effective and delightfully attractive fragrance and skincare products.

L'OCCITANE products are a true art de vivre for your well-being. We have combined nature and research, according to the principles of phytotherapy. We have developed a patented natural complex, and tested the effectiveness and tolerability of our formulas under medical supervision.

L'OCCITANE is a socially responsible company, committed to limiting the environmental impact of its actions.

Since its inception, L'OCCITANE has extended its reach beyond the Mediterranean region to support a sustainable development agenda. Today, the L'OCCITANE Foundation continues to support projects that give meaning to the brand and define its objectives.
