Dating in Grasse, capital of perfume

Fragonard, Molinard and Galimard

The three great houses of Grasse open their doors to the public: Fragonard in its historic factory, Molinard in its late 19th-century villa, Galimard with its famous perfume-creation workshops. Choosing your essences and composing a bottle together is an activity that turns a simple afternoon into a scented memory far more lasting than a selfie.

International Perfume Museum

Set at the heart of the old town, the International Perfume Museum traces three thousand years of fragrance history: ancient bottles, distillation instruments and contemporary creation. Its garden, below in Mouans-Sartoux, grows the emblematic perfume plants. An original date that teaches you to name the scents you share.

Old town and the Pays grassois

The old town winds around Notre-Dame-du-Puy Cathedral, home to works by Rubens, and opens onto Place aux Aires and its market. Around it, the Pays grassois grows, every May, the rose of Grasse that made Chanel No. 5 famous. On Lyad, members from Grasse share their favourite spots; it is up to you to find someone to breathe with, word after word.
