                    [Summary] => Standing tall, charming and handsome, Olivier Baussan, the founder and CEO  of L’Occitane, exudes the essence of his beloved Provence. He looks warm, refreshing and clean-cut even as he wears rugged blue jeans and a black T-shirt  on a sweltering summer day under an ancient willow tree in Salagon.  


"I love this place because it has a soul," Olivier smiles as he points to the ancient church beside a garden  where the flowers and trees of Provence are in full bloom.

                    [Summary] => L’Occitane has come to mean (for me at least) a high-end brand with very Middle-Earthy principles. It’s French countryside meets vegan apothecary; hippie chic without the dirt and voodoo. I look forward to reviewing products from L’Occitane, if only for the way their packaging stands out from all the other slick and glossy hard cases – theirs evoke a rustic colonialness, usually presented in recycled packaging or plain tin tubes slapped with a green sticker.
