L'OCCITANE's launches for March 2013 This March L'OCCITANE unveils two new products under the Immortelle Brightening Collection- Immortelle Brightening  Foaming Cleanser & Immortelle Brightening Mist. The Immortelle Brightening range combines the unique properties of Immortelle essential oil with Bellis Perennis, to keep skin young-looking, radiant and even-toned. Immortelle the flower that holds the secret of longevity... At the heart of the corsican maquis (the island’s fragrant scrubland) grows the Immortelle – a flower that never fades. Its latin name, helichrysum, means "golden sun". over ten years ago, L'Occitane revealed and patented the exceptional anti-ageing powers of corsican Immortelle – the variety that contains the highest concentration of active ingredients.

This Valentine's Day come celebrate with L'OCCITANE and the new Rose des Champs collection to celebrate the season of Love... A rose with a slightly rebellious nature reigns over the fields of Provence, where the four daughters of the Count of Forcalquier liked to stroll. True lovers of nature, they could not resist this rose’s scent and the air of freedom it carried. What name could you give this fascinating rose that so elegantly defies convention? It could only be the wild rose... Like a living memory of these wild and fragrant fields, the Rose des Champs collection captures this heady sensation of freedom in a floral, pastoral and colourful scent. All of the products in this collection contain a wild rose extract from Provence and fragrance absolutes of small meadow flowers.

These three olfactory worlds together form Eaux de Provence, a new tradition from L’OCCITANE. Please find below the product details:-

With onset of summers, my preferences for fragrances also take a shift. While in winters, I love more of heavy floral and musky fragrances, my summer senses urge for more citrusy and tangy smells, especially when it comes to bathing products.

Check out more details below: What does L'Occitane say about this Delice Des Fruit Shower Jelly?

These days I am being bombarded with roses from everywhere, may be because of pre-valentine’s effect – Roses in my soap, Roses in my perfume, roses in my air freshener and roses in my massage oils. So, when I saw this latest hand cream launched from L’Occitane that said “Desert Rose” in it, I was expecting similar “rosy” experience from this too. However, as knowledge’s light dawned upon me, I came to know that desert rose is not exactly a form of rose and no its not just one of the “Stings” album song’s title either. Here is a pic of how a Desert Rose looks like: Desert rose is basically a South African shrub having a swollen succulent stem and bearing showy pink and white flowers after the leaves fall; popular as an ornamental in tropics.  Also known as Moroccan rose, their extracts are conventionally renowned for their soothing and moisturizing benefits. This Limited Edition Desert Rose Hand Cream, enhanced with a fruity and tangy interpretation of Moroccan rose, ...
