The story of L’Occitane began in 1976 when 23-year old entrepreneur Olivier Baussan began distilling essential oil and selling at local markets around his home, the Provence region in southern France. As a young man, Olivier had a passion for plants as well as a strong desire to celebrate and preserve the traditions of his homeland. He opened his first store in 1981, selling oils, soaps and creams.

A Passionate Entrepreneurship Legacy
Global Growth with Heart
From these humble beginnings, L’Occitane en Provence has grown to become a respected and reputable global multibillion dollar venture. Joined in 1994 by partner Reinold Geiger, the heart of the brand is still driven by the families’ spirit and values.
Today, L’Occitane is a publicly traded company and a leader in the beauty world; however, the brand’s foundation is still strongly rooted in its origins. Both the Baussan and Geiger families breathe a true sense of love, care and commitment into the company, designed to create positive change for all employees, customers and Consultants.
