Terrific
My daughter and I had a fun time learning more about perfume and getting a chance to make one as well. The guide was great, very engaging and well versed . The tour was very informative and the gift shop offers many options.
Educational, cultural, and fun!
This is a compact guided tour and workshop that fits in a perfume making mini-class with the option to "create" your own perfume with base, heart, and top notes. Everything is setup ahead of time for the group to optimize time, and it is fun and simple to do. My daughter and I both made 2 different scents using the same ingredients, which I think we both feel is fascinating. We learned so much from our tour guide about French culture and history with perfume, ranging from aromatherapy methods like essential oil distillation and how the different scents and origins for scents range all over the world. Ending at the shop to sample scents was a great way to explore a new perfume. We eventually came back later on in our trip and bought a set of scents. For under an hour, this is a great investment and the staff is very friendly.
Wonderful Experience
The experience was really lovely. The museum is very elegant, and it was special being able to learn about the process and create our own personal scent using the components of their 2025 signature perfume. I would definitely return to do this activity again and recommend it to friends.
