"Saison was founded on a shared passion for discovering exceptionally beautiful, high quality lifestyle brands that inspire the senses and nurture the soul" says Saison Director, Jason Duke. "Olivina Napa Valley fits perfectly within this philosophy, featuring beautifully packaged products, that are based on hand-pressed anti-oxidant rich olive and grapeseed oils, sourced from the scenic rolling hills of the Napa Valley wine country in California".
"We are extremely happy to be partnering with Saison" says founder and proprietor of Olivina Napa Valley, Susan Costner-Kenward: "Olivina is a celebration of the sensory experience and one which will transport you into the land of sun-drenched vineyards and earthy luxury".
"All our products are completely natural, with fully recyclable packaging and ingredients free from both parabens and lauryl-sulfates" continues Costner-Kenward. "We believe that nature provides us with the most incredibly revitalising and nourishing ingredients. While the collection is predominantly olive and grapeseed oil based, we include many other healthful and soothing extracts in our formulations such as chamomile, sea algae, kelp, shea-butter, honey, fig, avocado oil, aloe vera and various beneficial vitamins and botanicals".
The Olivina Napa Valley bath and beauty collection consists of luxurious Hand and Body Lotions and Bubble Bath, decadent Body Butters and Hand Créme, delicately scented Bath Soaps and deeply moisturising Lip Butters. All products are beautifully packaged in elegant olive green bottles or artisan ecru boxes with custom Olivina ribbon.
Sweet and Petite: French Flavours that roll on the tongueLeading Australian distributor of luxury home and bath fragrances Saison takes a turn for the sweeter, as the sole Australian representative of the irresistible French bonbons Anis de Flavigny.
A small sweet surprise in the bottom of a Christmas stocking? A little thank-you in a colleague's office drawer? An extra dash of sugar tied to a celebratory bouquet of flowers?
Riffle through the shelves of the best food stores of France, through its most luxe handbags or the most chic travel kits, and you'll find these nostalgically designed tins of Anis de Flavigny: little sugar-coated anise seeds from a tiny French village, made following a recipe unchanged since 1591.
The latest addition to the Saison family, Anis de Flavigny bonbons have a cult-like following in their home country for their natural flavouring of anise seeds sourced from Syria, Spain and Turkey, and encased in layers of sugar.
No one knows when the sweets were invented - their existence in a Burgundy village, Flavigny, is recorded as early as the 16th century. In keeping with centuries of tradition, the sweetest sweets are now made in the Burgundy village's former Benedictine abbey by a family-owned company.
"We're very excited to include the Anis de Flavigny sweets to our range," says Saision director Jason Duke. "The sweets are divine and the gorgeous tins are perfect for tiny keepsakes."
Anis de Flavigny were one of the first confectionaries to be sold in vending machines in the Parisian metro in the 1940s and the sweets are thrown over the heads of newlyweds are a symbol of happiness and fertility. And being GMO-free and just four calories per sweet, they're good for both the environment and you!
Anis de Flavigny sweets come in seven all-natural flavours - mint, liquorice, orange blossom, violet, anis, rose and lemon in adorable oval tins that depict the love story of a shepherd and his maiden.
