Jean & Len

Jean&Len was founded in 2013 by Leonard Diepenbrock with an initial aim of combining nature-oriented care products, laboratory efficacy, and contemporary design. The brand began with children’s shampoos formulated without silicones, parabens, or animal-derived ingredients, then broadened into a care and lifestyle range. Its name reflects a founding concept involving Diepenbrock and a Canadian entrepreneur named Jean; Diepenbrock ultimately ran the company alone while retaining both names. The brand’s identity is captured by its “Ohne Gedøns” philosophy, which pairs vegan formulations with playful design and copy and avoids ingredients Diepenbrock does not want in his products; he also designs the packaging himself. In fragrance, Rosemary/Ginger is Jean&Len’s unisex signature scent: the family started with a hand soap, then extended across care and home products, becoming the brand’s first major breakthrough and a customer favorite.
