L'Occitane's new space celebrates Provence in Sandton

L'Occitane en Provence, the internationally loved beauty and wellness brand, has opened the doors to its newly relocated store in Sandton City – and while the brand is no stranger to the upscale mall, this move marks a refreshed approach to its signature boutique experience.

Located in a new space within the same shopping complex, the revamped store is a tranquil escape from the urban buzz.

True to the brand's French roots, the boutique radiates the warmth and elegance of southern France, offering customers a taste of the Provençal lifestyle with every visit.

Founded in 1976 by Olivier Baussan, L'Occitane started as a small venture in the south of France. At just 23 years old, Baussan began distilling essential oils from local herbs like rosemary and lavender, selling his fragrant creations at markets.

From those humble beginnings grew a global powerhouse with a heart rooted in nature, tradition, and sustainability.
