It retains a trace of a vintage paper label. The Christoléine brand was created in the 1920s by the Raffinerie de Corps Gras Frédéric Christol, a historic company founded in 1912 on Avenue de La Rochelle in Niort (Deux-Sèvres). Nicknamed “La Reine des Huiles” (The Queen of Oils), this independent, high-end brand experienced tremendous growth between the two world wars, driven by the region’s thriving automotive industry, before becoming one of the founding members of the famous national HAFA group in the 1960s.
