Collection: Le Secret de Manon
From the Owners:
We created Les Choses Simples (formerly Le Secret de Manon) after we moved to Provence in 2016. For Olivia, it was coming back to her roots, as she spent all her childhood in the Luberon.
The southern French way of life inspired us to start creating apothecary products that were just like Provence really is: sober, natural, charming, and a little magic.
For this purpose, Les Choses Simples stands for:
- Truly natural products: all our products are made out of non-toxic natural ingredients. They, therefore, do NOT include sulfates, phthalates, sodium lauryl sulfate, mineral oils, silicons, parabens, conservants.
- All the production is made locally in Provence, in small batches, and according to very old recipes.
- Our products are meant to be an olfactory journey to Provence. Each number in the collection is a luxurious fragrance that was born from dreams and tell beautiful stories: the orange blossom biscuits from our childhood (no 4), the oriental amber oil of the "Élégantes" of the fifties (No 1), the scent of a thoroughly starched and ironed white shirt (No 2) ...
