Laboratoire de Combe d'Ase (LCA) was founded in 1976 by a man with a passion for the natural riches of his native Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. Nestled in the Jabron valley, at the foot of the majestic Lure massif, this lover of aromatic plants began his business distilling lavender officinalis. This artisanal know-how, handed down from generation to generation, has enabled LCA to become a benchmark in the field of high-quality essential oils.
The choice of the name LCA, an acronym for "Laboratoire de Combe d'Ase", is no accident. It was inspired by an ancient Provençal legend: a donkey (ase), fallen to the bottom of a ravine (combe), miraculously survived thanks to the virtues of an endemic wild flower. This story perfectly symbolizes the essence of the brand: a deep-rooted authenticity, a tribute to nature and a desire to pass on the benefits of aromatic plants. Today, every LCA product carries this heritage of emotion and tradition, combined with rigorous scientific expertise.
Located in the heart of Haute-Provence, LCA enjoys a privileged environment. The region, rich in medicinal and aromatic plants, has long been considered the cradle of aromatherapy. This unique proximity to a diverse flora enables LCA to guarantee exceptional traceability and to work with committed local suppliers. In this way, the laboratory favors short circuits and supports local players, particularly wild plant gatherers, by promoting their know-how.
The factory, control laboratory and customer service department are located in Peyruis, a village nestled in the heart of the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence region. This local presence testifies to LCA's attachment to its Provencal roots, but also to its commitment to producing natural, sustainable solutions. Each essential oil, each skincare product developed by LCA is a true immersion in the enchanting landscapes of Provence, with the promise of optimal efficacy and uncompromising naturalness.
