Visit the gardens of the Musée International de la Parfumerie "A garden of 1001 scents".
Touch, smell, listen, contemplate...

Nestled at the foot of the olive and cypress hills, this conservatory of perfume plants covers nearly 3 hectares and is a real bucolic walk to discover the emblematic flowers that have made the reputation of the Grasse region. May rose, jasmine, tuberose, lavender, rose geranium, orange tree... you will discover scented plants, sources of raw materials for perfumery which, still today, inspire the greatest perfumers.

The gardens are composed of 2 parts, separated by a canal.

Olfactory journey

The 1st one proposes an interactive and multisensory olfactory path. Let yourself be guided and discover the plants ordered according to their olfactory notes: citrus, floral, woody, spicy, fruity, musky...

The second is a reproduction of the Grasse countryside and its fields of flowers.
In April, the fields are covered with flowers of Iris, goddess of the rainbow.
In May, the centifolia rose blossoms discreetly.
In August, jasmine, Coco Chanel's favorite flower.
In September, the majestic Tuberose, with its theatrical fragrance, perfumes the gardens.

You're sure to have an unforgettable time with family and friends, enjoying the shaded pergolas, water fountains, relaxation areas and lounging areas!
