L'Occitane (IPA: lɔksi'tan) (in full L'Occitane en Provence) (IPA: lɔksitanãpʁo'vãs) is an international retailer of body, face and home products. The company, founded by Olivier Baussan in 1976 and based in Manosque, France, creates items based on botanicals grown in the tradition of Provence. L'Occitane's stated objective is to revive the use of local plants, preserve local customs, and update traditional products for the modern world.
The company name, "L'Occitane," means "The woman from Occitania" in French.

It's a French perfume, isn't it? So why would a French perfume be called something in a language other than that?
