It was in 1611 that the formula for the elixir L'Eau de Mélisse des Carmes was born.
In 1838, Amédée Boyer joined the civil society and became its owner. Since then, the descendants of the Boyer family have perpetuated this craftsmanship and this immutable heritage which is a part of the history of Paris having survived the Revolution, wars and crises without ever failing. This now represents seven generations of family tradition.
In 2016 Jean-Brice Lagourgue took over the management of Eau des Carmes Boyer. The house has been awarded the Entreprises du Patrimoine Vivant label. She continues to transmit this ancestral know-how and has created a cultivable garden near her workshops, where she grows lemon balm, savory, chamomile, lavender, thyme and rosemary . Angelica, artemisia, marjoram, primrose and sage will also be welcomed from 2019.
The age of the preparation, the quality of the raw materials, the experience of the team and the care it lavishes tirelessly on the plants and spices throughout the manufacturing process make it an exceptional product.
Its origin is so old that it has almost become a legend. The secret formula , which is the fruit of the know-how of the monks of the order of the Discalced Carmelites, has been transmitted from generation to generation for more than 400 years. Produced exclusively in the Eau des Carmes Boyer workshops, it has remained 100% natural . Its method of manufacture is also artisanal and continues to be jealously guarded.
The famous Eau de Mélisse des Carmes Boyer combines the benefits of fourteen medicinal plants and nine spices . This is the oldest product sold in pharmacies. It is comforting and tonic , ideal against digestive disorders, "strokes" and motion sickness.
