Le Couvent des Minimes

Few brands can boast a lineage like Le Couvent des Minimes.

The name itself refers to a convent in the south of France, founded in 1614. In time, this convent became the beneficiary of numerous unique plants, as renowned botanist Louis Feuillée entrusted them with the discoveries from his continent-spanning travels.

Today, the modern Le Couvent des Minimes pays homage to its history with a collection of exquisite, far-reaching creations.

At the center of everything the brand does are three core concepts. This takes in the idea of noble botany – bringing out the essential nature of an ingredient – but also a thoroughly modern commitment to vegan ingredients and cruelty-free testing. Then there's the art of design, as every aspect of a bottle – from glass type to weight – is part of the overarching stylistic architecture.

If, however, you prefer to experience the fragrance in a different way, then the collection also contains a number of exceptional candles, hand creams and botanical soaps.
