L’occitane’s Arlésienne Holiday Collection is inspired by the woman from Arles, Southern France. Famed for her grace and radiant beauty, she is a free spirit that touches the lives of every soul around her. Artists like Van Gogh, Picasso, Mistral and Bizet have made her their muse. She is also the silent, yet markedly absent heroine of a Daudet play, where she is constantly referred to in three acts, but never appears. Despite the years, her allure remains as strong as ever. She represents the essence that all women live to be, even now.
Not many tourists know about the quaintly intimate city of Arles, but during the bullfighting festival and Pégoulade parade, there are people who flock to Arles to experience the excitement first-hand. At Arles, there are always new treasures to discover. With its rich heritage and ancient past, no wonder it is included in the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites. Even renowned painter Vincent van Gogh lived in Arles during his lifetime, and produced over 300 paintings while staying there.
Eau De Toilette 75ml/RM210 PERMANENT
The Arlésienne fragrance is both elusive and finely-tuned at the same time, with a blend of floral notes, accentuated with spicy Sandalwood and warm Tonka Bean. The head notes bring bursts of colour and joie de vivre, as the Saffron flower in full bloom introduces its sensual, peppery notes. Mandarin Orange adds a bold touch of sparkle. The heart is elegant and feminine, starring the Grasse Rose, enhanced by a few sprigs of Lily of the Valley. The fragrance lingers with a milky base note, with notes of Violet, Sandalwood and Tonka Bean to complete the sensorial experience.

The Arlésienne EDT bottle is personally created by L’OCCITANE founder Olivier Baussan, featuring a clear glass bottle complemented with tones of rose gold. The engraving found on the back is inspired by the stamps used for fabric printing, and displays the flowers used to create the fragrance. On the box, colourful drawings with rose gold accents pay homage to the beautiful dresses which Arlésienne is famous for, and also the three key ingredients that make up the beautiful scent.
