Grasse: Inside the Intimacy of a Perfumer-Creator: A Studio Visit

As part of Pays de Grasse Tourisme’s “Chemins Parfumés” programme, enjoy a unique behind-the-scenes insight into the world of independent perfumery. Accompanied by Hélène, a perfumer and creator, this exclusive experience invites you to discover the daily life of a “nose”: their creative process, their sources of inspiration, and how a formula comes to life to become a perfume.

YOUR EXPERIENCE, STEP BY STEP

1. The Art of Creation
Step inside the workshop to discover what goes on behind the scenes. Hélène will share her vision of the craft and explain how a fragrance is born, from an abstract idea to the finished bottle. You’ll explore the world of raw materials that make up her perfume organ.

2. Olfactory Journey & Emotions
Immerse yourself in the brand’s world through a sensory exploration of its creations. Together, you’ll decipher the olfactory notes of each fragrance and the emotions the perfumer sought to convey. A true lesson in ‘reading’ scents, teaching you to experience a perfume beyond its mere fragrance.

3. Your Favourite
The experience concludes with a special moment: choosing your favourite fragrance. You’ll leave with a 2ml sample of the fragrance that moved you the most, so you can continue this olfactory journey at home.
