Its not just about offering refillsour returns program also focuses on refilling, rather than recycling.
When theyre sent back to us, we sterilize them, refill them and then re-sell them.
If it cant be refilled, we pay for it to be properly recycled through our specialized partner.

We spent hours talking about how beautiful the natural world was.
Working with natureand the seasonshelped us create a more earth-friendly formula.
We also create our own perfumes with essential oils from the plants.
