Gotes was born from the idea of creating an aromatherapy and cosmetics brand whose main active ingredients would be essential oils
A family tradition of more than 80 years with one clear goal: to bring the properties and benefits of essential oils to the world
“Gotes was born from the idea of creating a natural cosmetics brand whose main active ingredients would be essential oils”
We select each of our essential oils with respect for nature, as an expression of our attitude towards the planet.
We believe in a world that does more with less. We bring you the benefits of nature with a range of pure, organic essential oils. We are present throughout the harvesting and bottling process, seeking the highest quality in the oils we select.
Gotes is a project linked to Lluch Essence, a leader in the distribution of natural products.

Lluch Essence was founded in 1950 by José María Lluch de Grau. In 1952 the first agencies for various Spanish and European suppliers of perfumery raw materials arrived in Spain. In 1956 his son Alberto Lluch, a great entrepreneur and driving force behind the distribution business, joined the company. The office and warehouse were on Calle Enrique Granados in Barcelona.

In 1965, after a long journey around the world, Alberto Lluch added new agencies for essential oil producers from exotic places all over the planet.
In the late 1970s, the small Barcelona office and warehouse moved to El Prat de Llobregat.
In 1992, Eva and Sofía Lluch joined the company, ensuring the continuity of the family management. This new generation drove a major commercial expansion, especially in France, Italy and Turkey.
In 1993 José María Lluch, the first generation of Lluch Essence, passed away. The company then had 7 employees.
In 1994, to guarantee the highest quality of its products, Lluch Essence set up its own laboratory with gas chromatography for the quality control of raw materials.
In 2001 the company took a major leap forward in size and quality with the construction of its current warehouses and offices in El Prat de Llobregat: 19,000 m² of modern facilities.
In 2009 Alberto Lluch passed away. His daughters Eva and Sofía, the third generation of the family, took over the management of the company with the same passion as their predecessors. At that time the company had 50 employees.
In 2010 the commercial expansion in Europe, South America and North Africa was consolidated, and the first ISO 9001 quality certification arrived.
In 2014 the first subsidiary was set up, in Colombia. Since then, international expansion has not stopped until reaching its current size.
Lluch, the parent company of Gotes, also obtained FSSC 22000 food safety certification.
The group obtained FAMI-QS certification for the manufacture of premixes and for the repackaging and distribution of more than 460 animal feed additives.
ISO 14001 certification is another step in our commitment to the environment. Lluch Essence continues its international expansion with the consolidation of its Singapore plant.
Gotes is born, with the aim of bringing essential oils directly from the extraction plants to the end customer. Thanks to Lluch Essence's unique position in the market, Gotes quickly established itself in the Spanish market.

“As a child, I developed skin problems related to atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. I have always found an effective remedy in the natural ingredients that surround us. Understanding our body and giving it its own medicine has been essential to improving my health.”
