You need to make this appointment one month early to secure your spot in their lab. They also has factory nearby that you can take a tour. The tour includes tour to their lab, ancient equipment, show room, and more. It was great to smell the fragrance during the tour. We did got a few bottles back home. There are three different types. The most pure it the oil base.

Explaining how perfumes are made up of the base, heart & head notes, there seemed to be hundreds of bottles containing different smells We started with the base note & I chose my favorite 4, their expert chose the mixing amounts and e continued to build from there until I had my very own perfume Needs to macerate for the next 3 weeks but from what I can tell so far, I rocked this! I can't wait to wear my very own scent, designed and named by me! My formula is stored there so whenever I want to reorder or change to perfume, shower gel shampoo or whatever product they offer, I can get it in MY scent How awesome is that?!

We took a guided tour through the factory and ended at the boutique on location. Unfortunately, it was the weekend so there were no workers in the factory. Despite this, it was such an amazing experience! We learned so much and it was amazing to see the tools used to create perfumes. I came home with five new French fragrances! I highly recommend stopping in to this beautiful, iconic piece of french history in Grasse, the perfume capitol of the world!

This was part of a day trip in the hills- what a great surprize! The building, displays, and…read morehistory were fabulous, then the sensory display of their perfumes was both a delight and enlightening! I actully didn't like perfume before today- now I "get it!" In the past I have been asaulted by gross amounts of obnoxious perfumes walking through department stores or getting a kiss from Grandma who overdid it. Now, wow, I appreciate the families of scents, the subtleties, etc. We ended up buying 5 perfumes and a variety of other products. A "must-see" if in the area!

This is a perfume shop located in the village on one of the smaller streets. They've got a fair…read moreselection. It's obviously nothing like a perfumerie (Galimard, Molinard, Fragonard, etc.) but they've got a decent selection. If you're a perfume connoisseur, this is more of an artisan, hipster-like place. They don't have parfum but they have eau de parfum and eau de toilette for men (por homme) and women. We got a bottle of Eau de parfum cause I guess we were just in the purchasing mood but it's a nice little shop if you're into that kind of thing.

You have to let it age for 3 weeks before you get to smell the final fragrance... Which is definitely different haha. But I still liked it. I think it's worth it to pay for the nice spray bottle they offer, otherwise you get a brown bottle like the ones pictured with no spray nozzle. This is the oldest perfumery in the area. The class is separate from a tour of the factory - that part is free and they have tours every hour. I recommend to do that first then hop to the class after. It is a bit of the way outside the main part of Grasse. Beware that during lunch time everything closes and it is very hard to get an Uber or taxi in that area. There is a bus close by but it doesn't come on time... You may have to wait awhile.
