The Perfumery Museum

Alone or with the family, the museum appears like a real treasure, so much the objects it contains are infinitely precious. Examples include Marie-Antoinette's sublime travel kit, the surprising bergamot bark boxes, a Grasse know-how or the bottles from Egypt or ancient Greece.

Conceived with a bold architecture built around a 14th century rampart, it offers 3500 m2 of showrooms around the history of perfume, with gardens, terraces, in an exceptional landscaped setting. Everywhere in the museum, you will be able to smell and share surprising olfactory experiences with reconstitutions of addictive scents such as tobacco, whisky, coffee, cannabis... Undoubtedly, perfume is a subject that speaks to the memory of Men.

Olfactory visit to make
