L’Occitane en Provence is launching a new virtual experience, L’Occitane Greenhouse, to showcase its summer fragrance collection. This innovative virtual environment draws inspiration from the scenic landscapes and aromatic essences of the French region of Provence.
The L’Occitane Greenhouse features three distinct spaces: a main hall dedicated to women's fragrance collections, a separate room highlighting men's scents, and a Middle East oasis area. To bring this immersive experience to life, L’Occitane en Provence collaborated with Emperia, a leading virtual reality technology company.
"Our new virtual experience is dedicated to L’Occitane’s world of natural fragrance creations, inviting guests to immerse themselves in a sensory journey of Provence through exquisite fragrances and exploration, while learning about the brand’s deep roots in the region," Mariana Rodrigues, marketing director of L’Occitane Middle East, said in a statement.
