L’Occitane en provence!
July 27, 2008
If your staying at any Four Seasons Hotel, your bathroom is stocked with it. If your dining at PF Chang’s in Chicago, they are in the restrooms. If your flying Delta, the flight attendant will give you a sample tube of their hand lotion. If your invited to my home, you will smell them burning through out my house. I’m talking about the scent of rich, earthly scented candles and perfumes by L’Occitane. Based in Provence France, L’Occitane sells their products through numerous retail outlets and has a freestanding boutique at Fashion Island in Newport Beach, CA. The company started off selling handmade soaps from a batch of lavender and rosemary oils. Next came skin creams, candles, and numerous other skin products. L’Occitane’s scents are inspired by Provence with simple, Old World containers and packaging. I am a huge fan of the candles because they come with tin lids for easy portability and they give my hotel room such an amazing smell. L’Occitane has grown from a one man show to a company operating in over 60 countries worldwide. My favorite scents include the Verbena range, which triggers energy vibes to the brain and Violet Fig to calm and sooth. The Green Tea with Mint perfume is another classic love of mine. Unfortunately Kate Hudson feels the same. She admitted on Good Morning America that it’s her favorite perfume and it sold out before I could buy another bottle. Thanks Kate!
