You'll access the Bois de Païolive Essential Oil Distillery via a sensory stroll through organically cultivated wild plants. These sites invite you to discover aromatic plants, their distillation, and other techniques for recovering the properties of plants (permanent self-guided tours with panels or guided tours at set times).

You will also discover the uses of typically Mediterranean aromatic and medicinal plants that we offer in different forms: essential oils, floral waters, herbal teas, soaps, cosmetics, pastis, liqueurs and room fragrances.

Access to the Distillery is on foot via a shaded path through the oak forest of approximately 1km (contact us for people with reduced mobility, people who do not want to walk or in rainy weather).

We invite you to take the time to stop by the shop to browse our products and the refreshment bar, where you can enjoy the plants in delicious Ardèche drinks and ice creams. All products in the shop and refreshment bar are organic.

You can also find our products in the online store section of our website. For more information on events, visit our website!
