About Lothantique

Lothantique SAS

Lothantique SAS is a distinguished purveyor of fragrances and aromatic products, with a rich history dating back to the 1920s. The company's origins are deeply rooted in the town of Châteauneuf-Val-Saint Donat, nestled at the base of the Lure Mountain, which was once blanketed with lavender fields.

History

  • Founding: The company was founded by Joséphine, an energetic ancestor of the family, who established a distillery for aromatic plants known as the Mouranchon Brothers Co.
  • Evolution: Over time, the product range expanded from essential oils to include items such as lavender in canvas bags, soaps, and eau de toilette.

Modern Era

  • Relaunch: In 1987, Joséphine's grandchildren, Domy and Denis Vogade, revitalized the family business, naming it Lothantique, inspired by Marcel Pagnol's works.
  • Expansion: By 1998, Lothantique had branched out with a subsidiary in the United States, LOTHANTIQUE INC.
