The Arlesienne, this radiant woman from the South of France, has inspired the painter Vincent Van Gogh, the poet Frédéric Mistral and the fashion designer Christian Lacroix. L’Occitane honors her with it’s latest fragrance collection, Arlésienne. The new fragrance is the synthesis of three floral notes- rose from Grasse along with sweet violet and saffron from Provence which come together in a floral fusion that reveals unexpected nuances of mystery, beauty and grace. The complementary collection features an array of products including body oil, beautifying powder, shower cream, hand cream, candles and more… I was sent over the Eau de Toilette along with the beauty milk, shower gel, hand cream, solid perfume and lip gloss.
The bottle for the L’Occitane Arlesienne Eau de Toilette ($50) is understated yet gorgeous featuring engraved flowers on the rear side (hard to photograph) along with pink writing and a rose gold cap. It’s sure to look beautiful on the vanity. I absolutely adore the fragrance, it’s light, feminine and ageless. Women of all ages will fall in love with Arlesienne. It’s not overpowering yet lingers all day. This is my new go to scent for the Fall/Winter season.
The Shower Cream (full size $20) is rich and creamy while the Beauty Milk ($25) is light yet extremely moisturizing. The Velvet Hand Cream ($12) is thick and rich leaving the hands soft and smelling divine.
The Solid Perfume ($12) is perfectly portable to throw in your purse to refresh throughout the day… and no worries about leaks!
The Gorgeous Lips Gloss ($12) is a pretty sheer shimmering rose (which I forgot to photograph :)) and leaves the lips nice and shiny and smelling of Arlesienne.
Arlesienne is a permanent addition to the L’Occitane family and you are sure to Fall in love. The fragrance will make a perfect gift for the ladies in your life, I’ll surely be gifting some of the goodies to the ladies in mine. Speaking of gifts, L’Occitane also has a bunch of new Holiday Gift Sets like this 13 Desserts of Provence which features sample sizes of some of L’Occitane’s most popular products including a travel size of Arlesienne Eau de Toilette…
