Perfume Making Workshop and Fragonard Tour
Perfume Making Workshop and Fragonard Tour
Like the celebrity stars that frequent this chic coast, create a fragrance that bears your own name. Tour the Fragonard Perfume Factory in the picturesque town of Eze. Nearby Grasse was one of the first towns in France to adopt the making of perfume from Italy and the climate and soil of this region proved ideal for growing the many fragrant blossoms used by perfumers. You'll have a dedicated, professional "nose" teach you about the history of perfume and what's required to achieve his or her advanced status in fragrance industry. Then participate in a workshop under the "nose's" tutelage, using different combinations of exotic essential oils to craft a customized scent. You'll take home a diploma and the bottle of your own fragrant creation.
