L’Occitane en Provence

A clever idea to use Provence’s abundant herb and plant repertoire to create an appealing skin care and fragrance range. Products here are divided into plant and herb family groups. Staff are helpful, encouraging you to try before you buy, they’ll also provide relevant samples for you to take-​away and experiment with at home — always a sign of a good and responsible company.
Pricing is pretty much mid-​range. There is something for everyone, from delicious single note (and more complex) floral, spicy or herbal scents to super-​rich body-​care (the almond range is delicious, although not intended to be eaten) and skin care (particularly good for dry and mature skin types). Their home scents make lovely gifts. I’m sad that they’ve discontinued their lovely natural-​look make-​up range though
