Private Charter in France
Peacefulness Through Scent
We’re often asked what skin care products we use on board the Grand Victoria. Awaken your senses with the fragrance found in our staterooms, which elevates the path to serenity.
Grand Victoria cruises supports a local retailer in Dijon, France who specializes in selling Durance Provence France products. We believe in supporting local businesses and building relationships that benefit our guests; not to mention our own business philosophy. Your French barge vacation is enhanced with every little detail.
The Maison Durance is first and foremost the story of a family passionate about perfume that bought in 1997 a small farm producing flowers and lavender essential oil in the heart of the Provençal Drôme in Grignan. Transported by the Beauty and Spirit of the place, and by the desire to sublimate the most precious perfumes and natural assets of Provence, Nicolas Ruth imagines with his teams products ever richer in benefits and helps to make Maison Durance shine throughout the world. The Essentiel collection tangerine and pomegranate is composed of 98% ingredients of natural origin.
The Grand Victoria proudly offers guests the Durance experience on your private luxury French barge cruise both fragrance and skin products to use on board. Marseille mandarin & pomegranate liquid soap for the body and hands gently cleanses the skin thanks to its formula composed of 98% ingredients of natural origin and based on organic olive oil from Provence and Camargue red rice extract.
The mandarin pomegranate perfume is made with organic red mandarin essential oil. With its red fruit accord, a real vitamin cocktail, it offers a real moment of pleasure. Each stateroom and ensuite bathroom is a new interior journey, to each skin perfume its language of emotion. Awaken the senses with the scent of mandarin and pomegranate. And for the only signature, the Durance fragrance is delicate, refined, and powerfully evocative.
We use the home fragrances to enhance the scents on board, the body care products, and linen products to maintain a consistent fragrance experience. Explore our Expansion Reed Diffuser, which beckons you to immerse yourself in a symphony of nature’s finest scents. Embrace this irresistible scent and expand your focus on the present moment.
