Our Story

The PRIMAVERA story begins more than two decades ago at the foot of the Alps in southern Germany. It is a story of discovery, passion and friendship – building a company upon love for nature and its holistic benefits; seeking the purest ingredients of the highest quality; committing wholeheartedly to sharing the skin and sensory benefits of healing plants.

When we first started out, in the early 1980s, pure plant oils were hard to come by but co-founders Ute Leube and Kurt Nübling understood that true holistic healing is rooted in only the purest, highest quality natural ingredients. Unsatisfied with what was available, they decided to produce their own organic formulas and started fostering partnerships with like-minded farmers, first across Europe and eventually around the world. In parallel, Ute and Kurt also developed relationships with physical and massage therapists, alternative medicine practitioners, botanists, green chemists and estheticians – all of whom readily shared their knowledge of healing plants and holistic living with PRIMAVERA’s founders.

PRIMAVERA’s first inventory – eighteen different essential oils and base oils – was unveiled at a seminar in 1986. The humble offering sold out almost immediately and the company has since been busy as a pioneer of the organic skincare and aromatherapy movement.
