NATURE, SCIENCE & PROVENÇAL HERITAGE
In the Beginning
It all begins in Haute-Provence, with a remarkable encounter. A time-tested still is passed on, knowledge shared and from this enduring tradition, Oliver Baussan finds his inspiration. With freshly picked rosemary, he ignites the flame. Oh, that fragrance! A revelation. This first act of distillation was more than a spark; it was the dawn of an adventure where nature sings and tradition dances. Out Maison, L'OCCITANE en Provence, was born.
The Gold of Women: Shea to Strengthen Bonds
In Burkina Faso, Olivier Baussan discovered a treasure in skilled hands: shea butter, soft as a whisper, powerful as a shout. Fascinated, he chose to collaborate with these women, where every nut is carefully transformed. To create a virtuous product, he asked the laboratory to formulate a cream with the highest concentration of shea butter. A benefit for the women of Burkina Faso and Ghana and for the cream's effectiveness. Thus was born a luminous alliance: a promise of generosity and empowerment.
