Middle: Rose, Jasmine and Ylang Ylang
Base: Tobacco Absolue, Fir Absolue and Green Cognac

Clairvoyant, our wild-crafted natural fragrance, invites you to see beyond the range of ordinary perception and celebrates the mystery of being a woman. Crisp floral-green top notes of bergamot and lime leads you into an exploration. Bulgarian rose middle notes blend with jasmine and ylang ylang to relax the senses and enhance your own natural harmony and beauty. Warm, lush, inviting base notes of tobacco, fir and green cognac suggest a subtle sexiness…the mystery and possibility of being a Clairvoyant woman.

Designed to be layered to achieve the level of scent desired – or used with other fragrances within a woman’s scent wardrobe – this pure fragrance features a 100 percent natural formulation down its base of organic corn alcohol.

About L'Occitane Limited Edition Shea Butter Body Creams

Bogolan packaging designs inspired by traditional fabrics...

The traditional bogolan fabric is decorated with patterns specific to
each village, designating where it was made. Bogolan cloth is dyed with
mud, which is said to give the fabric positive energy. These beautiful
fabrics inspired L’OCCITANE’s founder, Olivier Baussan, as he
designed the limited-edition packaging of this Shea Butter collection.

Enticing Autumn Scents inspired by African flowers...
For these limited editions, available in body cream, hand cream and lip balm,
L’OCCITANE drew inspiration from three flowers indigenous to the African
continent.
DESERT ROSE FROM MOROCCO is known for its generous blooms and
fruity, zesty aroma, which perfumes the desolate landscape.
HIBISCUS FROM EGYPT delights the eyes with its brilliant colors -- from the
purest white to the most passionate red. Its sensual, sunny perfume awakens
the senses.
COCOA FLOWER FROM THE IVORY COAST has a warm, comforting
scent with a delicious hint of cacao.
