Let me introduce you to the scent of summer bottled in three stunning variations – each capturing a slightly different mood, like sunbeams dancing through lemon trees. I’m talking about L’Occitane’s Verveine Eau de Toilette, Verveine Agrumes, and the sparkling Eau Fraîche Verveine Agrumes. All three are built on a radiant base of verbena – that sharp, green, citrusy herb that smells like sunshine and good vibes – but each has its own twist. Let me walk you through them, nose first. L’Occitane Verveine Eau de Toilette This is the original. The heartbeat. The classic.If you’ve never smelled verbena before,…

When summer comes banging on the window, boot‑kicks the door open and slaps me awake with 30 °C before breakfast, I know it’s time to reshuffle the fragrance wardrobe. The weighty, sticky gourmands get tucked in for their seasonal nap, and out march the lighter, brighter bottles—usually sparkling citrus or breezy florals. After all, no one cheers when a heavy scent wafts past them in a sweaty supermarket queue… unless your idea of validation is people swooning at your feet for all the wrong reasons. L’Occitane Rules the Heatwave So every June I start itching to unsheathe one of my all‑time…
My love affair with the French Provence is no secret, and L’Occitane embodies its essence in every product. From the moment I tried their solid rose perfume years ago, I was hooked. Their products are a reliable choice, boasting beautiful packaging, luxurious textures, and, most notably, their unforgettable fragrances that quickly become addictive. For this review, I’ve selected three tried-and-true favorites that I regularly indulge in, plus a new addition (at least to me) that I decided to test for the first time. All four belong to L’Occitane’s long-standing Almond line, one of the brand’s most beloved and best-selling collections.…
Harper’s Bazaar played me like a fiddle. With their June issue came a freebie—actually, two freebies. And not just any random minis. No. These were from L’Occitane. The only brand I mysteriously forgive for not being 100% natural. I don’t even have a logical reason for this. It’s like when someone asks why you fell in love with that person—you’re not going to reply with a ten-point checklist titled “His flawless family tree.” Love is blind. Period. Subconscious devotion, wrapped in aluminum tubes and Provençal dreams. The gifts? Two little joys from the Verbena line: a body lotion and a…
Face cleansing foams have made their way through my blog for quite some time. Some were better, others worse, and a few left me completely floored. Where does L’Occitane’s Immortelle Cleansing Foam fall in this list, which I finished just last week? Definitely in the latter group! In fact, I wouldn’t hesitate to crown it with a metaphorical cosmetic Oscar because it was undoubtedly one of the best (if not the best) I’ve ever used. I often visit the L’Occitane store in Zadar during sales events because a 20-30% discount is something my wallet certainly feels, and it’s absolutely worth…
Every now and then, I love to indulge in a series binge – and not only do I not feel guilty about lounging on the couch with snacks, but I also thoroughly enjoy it! I switch off my brain, relax, and recharge! Recently, I watched the latest season of Emily in Paris and am already eagerly waiting for the next one, especially since the storyline has moved to Italy, which I absolutely love! But that’s not what I wanted to write about today – I got distracted by something else. If you’ve watched the series, did you notice what Emily…
