The history of Maison Amorine
Inspired by the world, rooted in traditions
A WOMAN GUIDED BY DISCOVERY
Anne-Cécile, the founder, has always been driven by a spirit of discovery. From a very young age, the sea and sailing forged her intimate connection with nature, travel, and openness to the world.
Years after years, it becomes for her a living map, populated with knowledge, cultural riches and precious plants.
This need for escape led her to begin her career in the international commodities trade. In the Middle East and Africa, she witnessed the impact of resources and the importance of their cultivation, exchange, and sharing.
It was in Africa, the motherland, her "first love", that she discovered moringa oleifera , also called "tree of life" and used for millennia in healing rituals and Ayurvedic medicine.
This encounter acts as a catalyst. More than an ingredient, it seals her deep conviction for a shared, natural, and effective ancestral beauty.
In September 2024, she was named a Knight of the Order of Maritime Merit, a recognition of her commitment to her professional field. This milestone resonated deeply with her; the time had come to refocus on what truly mattered: caring for herself and others.
FROM AFRICAN ROOTS TO A COMMITTED VISION
Still in Africa, she met with women's cooperatives producing moringa oil, with whom she forged a valuable partnership for the future with a promise: to offer skincare that respects the skin, honors the earth, and celebrates the beauty of the world.
THE BIRTH OF MAISON AMORINE
From this vision was born Maison Amorine, whose name is a manifesto in itself; the contraction of "love" and "moringa", to express what really matters: the love of care, the kind that is cultivated in simple, essential, and profoundly alive gestures.
Maison Amorine was born from listening to the world; it is rooted in the excellence of French know-how.
"Celebrating the beauty of the world and its ancient botanical treasures. A universal energy embodied in our skincare so that every woman can reconnect and anchor herself to this force, with the utmost respect for our surroundings."
