OUR COMMITMENTS
Promoting local supply chains
La Cravenco Mill
La Cravenco mill in Arles has been turning since 1928 and is surrounded by a delightful olive grove. Traversed by the ancient Barbegal Roman Aqueduct and rich in beautiful olive trees more than 60 years old, this heritage mill possesses truly outstanding know-how and unmatched quality.
Made in France

– trusting in French know-how, the very best in the luxury and beauty sector,

Getting back to basics
By choosing multi-benefit, all-in-one skincare products, you avoid over-consumption and accumulating numerous products, both in your bathroom and on your skin.
A single product is enough to take care of your skin on a daily basis!
Thinking green
Alyscamps favors approaches to limit its environmental impact and look after our planet.
We use recyclable packaging (glass and cardboard) whenever possible..
The cardboard used for our boxes is FSC-certified, guaranteeing the sustainable and responsible management of forests.
Developing the circular economy
Alyscamps skin care products contain olive oil as well as numerous olive tree by-products. This has the double advantage of making the most of everything this amazing plant has to offer AND preventing waste!.
And Alyscamps aims to go even further by playing a greater role in the circular economy, in particular by recycling olive tree waste and exploiting apricot stones.
That’s right, the future of Alyscamps is already taking shape. We are always on the move!
