At Puracosa, we believe beauty should be both intentional and authentic. It blooms where integrity and nature meet. Oden embodies that philosophy—a French botanical skincare brand born from a deep-rooted love for local plants and simple, effective formulations.
A Mother-Daughter Vision Grounded in Nature
Oden’s tale begins in 2017 when founder Marion Weber — accompanied soon after by her mother, agronomist Laurence — realised that many natural “Made in France” products still rely on imported ingredients. Determined to change that, Marion embarked on a journey across France, forging direct partnerships with small-scale, responsible farmers. From this local, regenerative connection, Oden’s first range of six pure, cold-pressed face oils was born.
The name Oden—the blend of “an ode to beauty” and “Garden of Eden”—echoes this ethos beautifully.
Purity, Traceability & Local Impact
At the heart of Oden is a commitment to true French origin: Ingredients are exclusively sourced and cultivated in France, with full traceability—from field to bottle.
Oils are pressed on demand, first cold-pressed and unrefined, preserving their freshness and potency. The brand revives neglected French crops and supports biodiversity via small-scale, regenerative partnerships.
Exceptional Simplicity, Proven Performance
Oden’s formulas embody elegant simplicity. Most botanical oils are almost pure—99.8% plant oils with just 0.2% natural vitamin E. This clarity of composition means every product is deeply nourishing, quickly absorbed, and leaves no residue. Standout ingredients like bourrache (borage), mirabelle plum, hazelnut, and almond are selected for their regenerative and hydrating properties.
A Living Brand—Story and Place
Oden isn’t just a skincare line—it is an invitation to reconnect with nature. The brand’s Maison Botanique in Paris, opened in 2020, bridges lab, showroom, and a public space for mindful consumption. Marion also maintains a biodynamic garden in Brittany (Piriac-sur-Mer), where she cultivates plants used in her oils—a tangible expression of her mission: beauty, grown not assembled.
