This is the original and experimental garden of Sanoflore (now owned by L'Oréal) established from 1986 on the site. It was renovated in 2018. In a magnificent setting, where the relief of the Vercors blends with the mildness of the Mediterranean climate, an ideal terrain where the plant species of the sun grow, whose essential oils are used in the composition of Sanoflore's cosmetic products, always 100% organic. There is no shop but you can always visit the botanical garden with its 350 aromatic and medicinal plants. Count on a half-hour visit to discover this garden of 2,500m2 along a charming little river. There are 9 themed gardens along the river. You start with the Mediterranean Garden with its Aleppo pines, cork oaks, palms, cacti, citrus fruits... Then you go through the Alley of the Simple Ones where you can find lemon balm, borage, milk thistle, and medicinal plants with calendula, aloe vera, bear's garlic, the collection of sage and mint. Further on, it is the beautiful and fragrant Lavender Mountain (fine and true) that undulates in the wind just next to the Aromatic Damier. Each plant, each shrub, each tree is labelled so that you can discover its Latin name, history, properties... Also on the menu: the small rose garden, the belvedere, the wetland with its water lilies, the flower meadow, etc. Come in spring, it's an enchantment!
