Nature, art et beauty

Offer a new look at nature, inspiring beauty.

The Jardins Sothys®, created in 2007, are a preserved plant setting in Auriac, in Corrèze, near Cantal in a Natura 2000 protected area. Located on the homeland of the Mas family, Les Jardins Sothys ® enhance the plant world; they are the source of inspiration and creation of Sothys cosmetic products.

The Sothys philosophy is dedicated to beauty, cosmetics and well-being. At the same time atmospheric gardens, set of small intimate enclosures with varied atmospheres, they invite you to a sensory escape, a unique experience that combines nature, beauty and culture.

By losing yourself in it you will feel harmony, serenity and calm. They consist of a Botanical Garden labeled Remarkable Garden (4 ha in the heart of a 26 hectare forest park), a gourmet restaurant and a Boutique.

This exceptional place now attracts over 12,000 visitors every year.

“Although for many years, I devoted all my energy to Tokyo, New York and Singapore in order to develop Sothys, I thought constantly about Auriac, the green landscape of my Corrèzian garden, this magical place, which, well away from the century’s hustle and bustle, has always made me feel peaceful and rejuvenated... This is where meaning takes root... ”
