L’Occitane launches new Limited Editions to their range for summer.

Since 1976, when L'Occitane was born, it has been crucial for the brand to protect and learn from nature, the secrets of plants, their exceptional properties and the powers of their active ingredients.

Two of L'Occitane’s six commitments to people and the planet, Respecting Biodiversity and Supporting Producers, play a central role in our study of nature. L'Occitane ensures that all its ingredients are harvested sustainably while also supporting producers by sourcing directly from them and using organic farming methods.

The verbena producers use agroecology methods such as crop covering to improve the quality of their soils and promote biodiversity. Their lavender producers protect bees, encouraging them to leave the lavender crops before every harvest so they can continue to pollinate.

They also support producers to grow new varieties of lavender, such as white lavender, that have strong genetic diversity. It is estimated that around 50% of lavender in Provence is at risk of fade out, which is why L'Occitane has introduced white lavender.  The new white lavender crop is developed to preserve the survival of lavender in Provence despite illness and climate change, encouraging biodiversity to thrive.

This summer, to celebrate harvesting to give back, they have launched a new White Lavender Collection, as well as Classic and Citrus Verbena Limited Edition Collections.

WHITE LAVENDER

L'Occitane’s White Lavender Collection is a subtle take on the traditional lavender scent.   Its fragrance characterised by top notes of a cedrat and petit grain blended with the juiciness of bergamot, alongside an essential oil blend of white and blue lavender. Each variety of lavender is planted with seeds as opposed to cloning; ensuring the genetic material of each plant is unique and encouraging biodiversity to thrive.
