About Us

We are the cultivators of nature

Since 1976, L'Occitane has been researching, producing, and selling beauty, skincare, and wellness products with the goal of sharing the wonders of nature with the world. We believe that true beauty goes beyond what the eyes can see.

From seed to skin, every aspect of our operations is thoughtfully considered. We nurture nature to embrace a better future. L'Occitane has always been a cultivator of change. We do our utmost to drive positive transformation and are committed to inspiring those around us to take similar action.

Cultivating change through action

"We help partner farmers form fair trade cooperatives and focus on developing ecological agriculture. This means giving them access to better farming methods and training programs, while also learning how to preserve biodiversity."
- Justine, Sustainable Ingredients Team

"We believe in the power of nature, and in the importance of empowering our customers. This drives us to develop a strict 'L’Occitane Formulation Charter,' ensuring transparency in every choice we make throughout the production process."
- Pascale, R&D and Technology Innovation Team

We must remain vigilant about the urgent threats facing our natural ecosystems and work together with a united purpose. We are committed to protecting and giving back to nature, so that Mother Nature can continue to give back to us. Year after year, we strive even harder to ensure that every environment and ecosystem we cultivate has the opportunity to regenerate and thrive.
-Adrien，CEO L'Occitane en Provence

"We offer 20 weeks of paid parental leave for primary caregivers and 12 weeks for secondary caregivers. This initiative helps create a more inclusive and supportive workplace, while strengthening family bonds during crucial moments."
-Aurélie, Human Resources Team

Year after year, we cultivate change

Let us tell you the story of L’Occitane through the journey of a year…

Each year, we plant ingredient crops that are designed to live in harmony with their surrounding ecosystems. We rely on the gifts of Mother Earth and marvel at nature’s power as the plants bloom and bear fruit.

We explore the treasures hidden within these natural crops and dedicate ourselves to scientific research until we achieve breakthrough innovations. These discoveries are then transformed into delightful experiences.

We work closely with local producers because we believe that every action—no matter how big or small—has the power to make a difference.
