L'Occitane Gifts for Him & Her | The Wishlist

Today I'm sharing some thoughts and recommendations on those, gifts for Him & Her sets from L'Occitane. I have long been an admirer of the brand and we should start with a little backdrop. L'Occitane en Provence, commonly known as L'Occitane, is an international retailer of body, face, fragrances and home products based in Manosque, France. Founded in 1976 by Olivier Baussan, with the purpose to create a company that celebrates and preserves the traditions of his native Provence. 

It's a brand steeped with tradition. The quality is second to none and I've been salivating over these gifts for Him & Her sets for some time. I know they'd make some great housewarming gifts, or occasion gifts to mark an anniversary etc. 

So let's dive in. 

Invigorating Verbena Shower Gel Duo

Shower gels an amazingly neutral and a gift that is always incredibly well received. When I visit friends or family members, I always bring my own shower gel because I have a thing about using other people’s soap. Just a thing I have. And maybe it's a thing you should have too. However, if I saw these gels awaiting me, I'd be quid’s in. With its distinctive lemony notes, those shower gels are like warm summer days in bottles and acts like an endless antidotes to everything. Their fragrances exude happiness. They brightens the skies of a long winter, echoes the cycles of spring, cools and calms on a hot summer afternoon. 

Available, £34. 

Eye Night Reset Routine

It’s no big secret: when you’re tired, the first place it shows is your face. Enjoy L’OCCITANE powerful botanical complex with Immortelle essential oil from Corsica in this exceptional face care routine. 

The who’s is whose night cream debacle can be grounds for divorce most days. When mine goes missing, if Tuula has borrowed it or put it somewhere out of reach I throw dog kibble at her and shout EAT IT!!!! (Jokes). But the pencil in my mind snaps clean and loud when it goes missing. So why not load up that eye cream wardrobe for Him & Her with this gift set. This skin beautifying gift includes: Immortelle Essential Water 30ml, Overnight Reset Eye Serum 15ml, Overnight Reset Serum 5ml, Immortelle Precious Cream 8ml.

Cheap shop sanitiser has left my palms feeling like a cats tongue. They'll both be thanking you for this one. Enriched in 5% Shea butter, this fragranced hand cream with its surprising whipped texture, helps nourish, protect and soften skin, while enveloping them with a delicate floral, powdery scent of mixed rose, violet and musk.

86 Champs Blackcurrant Rhubarb Candle

A vibrant, floral, green and fruity candle that combines Blackcurrant of Burgundy and Rhubarb. Give their home a glow with a candle. And also, it's a present to yourself. Some folk have a bit of a musk going on. Naturally they're immune because they're knee deep in their own quick sand. But tell them to fire up this puppy and lets mask that musk.

Rub blackcurrant leaves between your hands, crush one of its buds between your fingers, and be caught up in captivating scents. This candle is composed around an essence of a rare quality, made with blackcurrant buds from Burgundy. Chosen for its rich, fruity, peppery depth, it mingles with fresh botanical notes that complement the greenness of rhubarb to perfection.
