An extension of the L’OCCITANE brand

Every treatment, ingredient and ritual is drawn from a page of the L’OCCITANE grand herbarium, a resource of hundreds of essential oils and natural ingredients. The escape begins with scent. From the moment you enter a Spa L’OCCITANE, the fragrances transport you to Provence . Your experience takes you on a true olfactory journey, every step sequenced by soothing and energizing aromas. The voyage of the senses continues through treatments, sensorial textures, relaxing music and herbal teas inspired by Provencal traditions.

The Spa is a natural extension of L’OCCITANE brand. In respect for authenticity, we always prefer hand-performed treatments over machines and traditional massage techniques over technology.
