Fun Experience
If you are going to be near Grasse and have some extra time the Mini Perfume Workshop was just silly fun. It includes a brief factory tour but don't expect a history of perfume making. I would read a wiki page on perfume if you are going. The workshop was fun to do and worth the price. Note that the tour and the workshop are really prelude to the perfume shop where Fragonard hopes you will buy stuff to take home. The prices at the factory store are discounted and very reasonable. Again, fun if your going to be around Grasse, or can fit it into a drive around Cannes or Nice. Note that the factory tour and workshop is not in old-town Grasse (although you will find a Fragonard store in the old town). There is a large parking lot around the factory/store building so access is easy.
Assez bien
Intéressant mais j’ai été déçue de l’atelier, assez court et très contraint. Je trouve que cela revient vraiment cher pour 15-20 minutes d’atelier. Les guides et les personnes à l’accueil sont très compétents mais tendus par le timing serré et par nombre très important de gens à gérer du coup l’ambiance n’est pas totalement sereine.
Visite et stage parfum
Visite très intéressante mais trop rapide. Fabrication du parfum également interessante mais déçue je pensais qu on pouvait choisir les essences des différentes notes pour créer un parfum personnel
