UNSPOILT NATURE
BORN DEEP IN THE HILLS

Nature is completely untouched in Haute-Provence. This is the Provence that seeps Collines de Provence in all its mysterious, beautiful and untamed nature every day. This is the Provence that inspires us: the Provence of hilltop villages, hills bursting with aromatic gems and brimming with botanical miracles...

We are experts in capturing the essence of a blossoming orchard, bottling the scent of aromatic plants as if they were freshly hand-picked, awakening your senses with our fragrant blends true to Grasse tradition. 

It takes experience and a little talent to recreate the scent of spring flowers or capture the unique fragrance of lavender in July in an eau de toilette or scented candle. All our product formulas contain the unspoilt fruit of labourers of the land. These are the roots of our culture for excellence.  

IN GOOD HANDS
THE PEOPLE WORKING IN OUR WORKSHOP ELEVATE NATURE'S FRAGRANCE WITH THEIR HANDS

Our expertise involves a time-honoured tradition of steps that are even more special because they are performed by hand: collect a scent, create a fragrance, formulate a cream, sew a label or tie a bow... Collines de Provence strives to keep the legacy of handmade precision alive. 

Protecting "handmade" means protecting a way of life, our community values and the environment. 

Collines de Provence's expertise goes into natural fragrances and ingredients: Whether it be the natural cosmetics laboratory or the perfume workshop, we champion organic techniques and methods: hands, skin, nose... there's nothing standard about our creations, they all have real soul. Nothing beats an artisan's touch, nothing beats an artist's inspiration so everything we make is outstanding. Because it's so rare to find things that are still handmade!  

The people working in our workshops elevate nature's fragrances with their hands: putting the cases together, the finishing touches, dressing the glass, filling the diffusers, tying the bows and strings and even pouring the candles are just some of the steps each and every employee does by hand at our Mane workshops in the Haute-Provence hills. 

THE ART OF THE PERFUMER
THE NATURAL INGREDIENT ENHANCED BY OUR GRASS "NEZ" FRAGRANCE EXPERTS

Natural ingredients reign supreme at Collines de Provence. You can see it straight away, it's like a signature. But there's more to it than meets the eye. The sensory experience goes far deeper: you rediscover it, you realise how deep it goes. 

And they reveal themselves: orange blossom, berry, ebony wood, bergamot, white cotton... you feel like you've never smelt them before. You can't quite put your finger on them. They're the scents you recognise, but better! On their own or in aromatic blends you put together yourself. 

Our Grasse "nez" fragrance experts have the skills to pair vanilla with grapefruit, rose with hibiscus, amber with heliotrope and mandarin with yuzu. These exclusive natural fragrances are Collines de Provence's very own creations. That's another of our signatures: we blaze a trail with products you won't find anywhere else.   

POSITIVE IMPACT
FRENCH MANUFACTURING ESPECIALLY "MADE IN PROVENCE"

We believe in the value of our products because we know the quality that goes into them. And since fuelling our local economy is always at the front of our minds, we not only champion products made in France but first and foremost ‘Made in Provence’, whether it be making our products, packaging and which partners to work with! There's so much to love about local. 

So our products, posters, sales tools and display fixtures are all made in Provence by our local partners. 

You are always welcome to visit us, share our passion and explore our world with free time visiting our fragrance factory deep in the hills in Mane en Provence.

We want to have a positive impact in every area: from field to the workshop. Keep the positive vibes going and pay us a visit. 

MANUFACTURING SECRETS

The secret recipe. The secret behind how we make our products. Another two time-honoured traditions that Collines de Provence won't let go. You must admit, there's always something magical about a secret and we want to keep a few things up our sleeve! So all our skincare formulas are totally exclusive... and irreplicable. Our formulation laboratory is like a bank vault!  

Naturally, the same goes for our workshop making scented products. It seems so simple: all our diffuser products are tailor-made for fragrance. The same goes for all our artisan candles which are hand-poured then finished and decorated by hand in our workshops, another of our secrets... you have to "hand" it to us.  

The secret behind Collines de Provence's first class candles is our specific (and top secret) formula and the cotton wick (metal-free) to suit each fragrance to bring out every side of our scents.

We tweak the secret formula to bring you the best quality smokeless candles which not only burn consistently but also showcase our fragrances.
