About Us

Our philosophy

Every choice we make is guided by a single idea: preserving the integrity of the oil, from the field to your plate.

Formulated by experts

Every blend is designed with nutrition specialists.

The best of every oil

Virgin oils obtained without heat or solvents, from growers selected one by one.

Pleasure, every day

Every formula is developed for its flavour profile as much as for its composition.

Our story

“For as long as I can remember, one question has followed me: what if what I put on my plate could take care of me as much as what I put on my skin?

In the end my body asked the question for me. I began to look differently at what I was eating, at the fatty acids I was taking in, at the gestures I repeated every day without thinking.

And then there is the family tradition. My family harvests its olives every year and presses its own oil. I grew up with the idea that oil is not a condiment. It is a living material.

Orvaine was born of all that. Of culinary knowledge, of nutritional rigour and of an inheritance.”

Lara, Founder

Our purpose

To pass on the best of what nature produces, in the freshest state possible.

An oil is only worth what it has kept. The choice of grower, the pressing date, the way it was extracted and protected from light matter as much as the plant itself.

Our formulas are built to draw out the best of every oil, and to make the whole more precise than the sum of its parts. Every blend is designed around an intention: to regenerate, to balance, to protect.

None of this is left to chance. Months of research to identify the right growers and the right formulations, co-created with nutrition experts, where every oil has a reason to be there.

What we believe

Transparency

The origin of our oils, their extraction method, their nutritional qualities: everything is explained honestly, without excessive promises.

Origin above all

Every oil is selected for its quality, its terroir and the expertise of its grower. We favour France wherever possible and work with a limited number of partners, chosen with lasting relationships in mind.

Respect for the raw material

All our oils are virgin and come from a first cold pressing. Without heat or solvents, so as to preserve all the richness of the essential fatty acids, polyphenols, phytosterols and vitamin E naturally present in the seeds.

Pleasure as ritual

We chose oil in its simplest form: liquid. Because it belongs naturally in the kitchen, brings out the flavour of food and turns an everyday gesture into a genuine ritual. A ritual that is enjoyable is one you keep for the long term.

A demand for freshness

Vegetable oils are living, delicate products. We favour small batches, tinted glass bottles and appropriate storage conditions in order to preserve their freshness all the way to your plate.

Between science and heritage

Our formulations draw on the most recent knowledge in nutrition while remaining deeply inspired by food traditions that have crossed the centuries. We move forward with curiosity, rigour and humility.
