The emblematic workshop of Maison Molinard. For one hour, accompanied by a perfume expert, you explore the structure of a fragrance, discover top, heart, and base notes, and compose your own creation from 90 essences. You leave with a unique 50 ml bottle marked by your olfactory personality.
Since 1849, the Maison Molinard has embodied a free and uncompromising vision of the perfumer’s craft. A family-owned Maison for five generations, it perpetuates in Grasse a living savoir-faire, continuously reinterpreted over time.Audacious by nature, the Maison Molinard was the first to introduce Ateliers de Création de Parfums open to the public as early as 1994.A founding gesture, faithful to its conviction: sharing the art of perfume with as many people as possible.These ateliers are rooted in the history of a pioneering Maison, shaped by emblematic creations such as Habanita (1921), the first feminine oriental fragrance, and by a constant spirit of innovation. Today, heritage and creation continue to dialogue, giving rise to fragrances and experiences that are authentic and deeply personal.

An absolutely wonderful perfume workshop experience!
Everything about this workshop was perfectly balanced — not too short, not too long, and incredibly informative and engaging throughout. It was exceptionally well organized, and the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and professional from start to finish. What truly stood out was the thoughtful and sympathetic guidance we received. The facilitator took genuine time to understand individual wishes and personal needs, and this was especially meaningful for my 16-year-old son. He was met with remarkable professionalism, empathy, mindfulness, and patience, which made the experience not only educational but also deeply encouraging and confidence-building for him. We learned so much about fragrance composition in a way that was accessible, fascinating, and hands-on. Every question was answered with care, and the entire experience felt personal rather than generic. A truly memorable workshop — inspiring, beautifully structured, and delivered with real passion. We highly recommend it to anyone interested in perfume or simply looking for a unique and enriching experience.

Un moment parfait !
J'ai eu la chance de réaliser cette atelier seule sur le créneau sélectionné. L'endroit en lui même est incroyable avec de véritables pièces d'antiquité, un plaisir pour les yeux. L'accueil est juste parfait, chaleureux, présent sans être oppressant... Barbara qui animait l'atelier a été très attentionnée. Grâce à elle, je peux dire que j'ai un véritable parfum signature avec une évolution qui sera incroyable. Le seul bémol c'est l'attente pour ouvrir le flacon ! Vivement la fin des 10 jours de macération. Une expérience à vivre au moins une fois dans sa vie.
