Create your own unique smell
We had a lovely time creating our own perfume. The explanation was very clear and the lady helped us find our perfect smell.
Great experience
Great tour guide and fun and interesting to see the factory. Fair priced. Maybe a bit off topic, but I feel that the restroom experience for a place like this needs a big upgrade to something more luxurious as part of the branding and whole experience of visiting. The conditions of the restrooms were in great contrast to the rest of the experience at the tour and in the beautiful shop and would be such a suitable place to showcase products, scents etc.
Superbe
