I adore L'Occitane as a brand and have for some time now, been obsessed with their Almond range, it smells just incredible and we go through bottle after bottle of the shower oil because it is just so good. At Christmas time, a visit to any L'Occitane store is enough to put you into the festive spirit and with gifts galore to chose from, there is something right here for every budget and for every person, including the home.
Aside from Almond, a scent I absolutely adore is Cherry Blossom, there is something so fresh about it and the Cherry Blossom Gift Set, which comes packaged inside a signature L'Occitane gift box, something else that L'Occitane do really really well.
If the fresh and floral scent is something that you like, then this gift sets will tick both of those boxes. Enriched with natural cherry blossom which comes from the Luberon region of southern France this gift set includes:
• 250ml Cherry Blossom Shower Gel• 75ml Cherry Blossom Shimmering Body Lotion
• 50g Cherry Blossom Scented Soap
• 30ml Cherry Blossom Scented Hand Cream
What I love is that these four products can be used to compliment one another starting with the Bath & Shower Gel, which when it comes into contact with water foams up into a creamy mousse and smells just beautiful. Once out of the bath you apply the Cherry Blossom Shimmering Body Lotion which is enriched with Shea Butter alongside the scent of scent of cherry blossom, it not only intensifies the scent of the Bath & Shower Gel, it leaves your skin feeling soft, smooth, hydrated and lit eaves an iridescent veil on the body. Then having washed your hands using the Cherry Blossom Scented Soap, you are left with one product which is the Cherry Blossom Scented Hand Cream. What I really like about L'Occitane hand creams is that the formula is non-greasy whilst being creamy and moisturising. Enriched with Shea Butter, it again nourishes and protects the hands as well as leaving them delicately scented.
Impressively each one of the products within this box is very generously sized making the price of £39 incredible value for money.
As mentioned, L'Occitane have a range of gifts to suit everyone's budget and below I have detailed some of my favourite gift sets.
Starting with the Delicious Almond Collection (rrp £49) it comes packaged in a beautifully festive red box and includes four of my favourite products including the Almond Shower Oil. Next is The Best of L'Occitane Collection and this would make a perfect gift for those people who absolutely love the brand or for those people who are yet to discover it. Priced at just £69 it includes some of the most cherished scents and textures made famous by L’OCCITANE such as The Almond Shower Oil and the Lavender Foaming Bath. Right in the middle there is a cute Mini Terre de Lumière Star Tree Decoration which houses a 5ml gourmand aromatic Terre de Lumière Eau de Parfum which smells divine and it costs just £8. On the bottom row there are two further gift sets which, starting on the left is the Divine Face Care Trilogy (rrp £159) which features anti-ageing face care trio that will restore, regenerate and reveal younger-looking skin. Featuring the incredible Immortelle Divine Cream, a 30ml Divine Serum and a 15ml Divine Eyes it also is packaged inside a signature L'Occitane box. The final gift set is the Néroli & Orchidée Collection which is made up of zesty notes of orange and mandarin alongside that of White Orchid. Within the box you will find three products which include 75ml Néroli & Orchidée Eau de Toilette, a 245ml Néroli & Orchidée Shower Gel and a 50ml Néroli & Orchidée Body Milk and all for just £59.
The Cherry Blossom Gift Set was gifted to me for the purpose of this review, but all words are my own.
