Best part of our trip

Global rating Quality/price Fun

My sister and I did the tour together and we absolutely loved it. It was so interactive and fun! We didn’t want to pay 200€ to make a perfume, so this gave us just the taste we needed.

Great tour and engaging guide.

Global rating Quality/price Fun

It was a great family tour which helped to understand the history as well as recent progression of parfumeries. It was great to get some hands on and build our own parfums. Highly recommended.

Short, sweet and hits the highlights

Global rating Quality/price Fun

Well run and interesting. Easy to book. Clear instructions provided and reminders. Very short but that suited me. The perfume making used quality materials. It limited us to the basics which I found interesting. My sister and I ended up with quite different scents despite using the same basic ingredients. The last time I did this (30 years ago in Grasse), it was overwhelming, trying to narrow down dozens of scents to something an inexperienced "nose" likes. The tour ended in the shop (of course) but the sales pitch was light and easy. I found the commercialisation of the check-in off putting and if everyone is going to wait 15 minutes, could we have more seating please? I couldn't access the internet inside so we almost missed our bus to Nice as we couldn't check the schedule. Could it be posted?

Disappointing - no „personal“ perfume at all

Global rating Quality/price Fun

The way this workshop was described on the website, I was looking forward to 45 min of learning about combining different smells and then (because this is the meaning of „personal“ perfume to me) actually choosing from different essences to create your smell. Instead for the bigger part of the workshop the huge group listened to the same speech about the factory like the one you get on the free tour. Afterwards, we had the choice of one smell (which I didn’t like) picked out for us and could only decide on the proportion of base, heart and top note. This then took me maybe 7 minutes to „create“ a 15ml eau de toilette (not perfume) which I will not want to use myself. In the end it was 15 more minutes just advertisement talk about the different skincare products… I really have to say I was very disappointed, because I was looking forward to something like this a lot, which was why I decided to try again at a different perfumery. I ended up paying not even twice the price (58€) for 100ml (!!) of eau de parfum at Galimard - with this workshop we had two hours to choose from over 100 essences and it was just a blissful experience!!

Fantastic Workshop & Tour

Global rating Quality/price Fun

First time visiting Fragonard… I took my Husband & 15 year old daughter. The tour was very interesting & the workshop was also a fantastic experience. It was very detailed but easy to follow. We all made a really lovely scent. The tour guide was very pleasant & helpful. The place itself Eze is also very pretty. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Fantastic Experience!

Global rating Quality/price Fun

The Mini Perfume Workshop at Fragonard was a fantastic experience. The instructor was very friendly and taught us a lot about fragrances. I thoroughly enjoyed making perfume and would 100% go back again.

An amazing experience!!!

Global rating Quality/price Fun

The location is very close to the town and the staff was super nice. The tour lasted about an hour and you learn a lot about perfume making. The lady who was our guide was very friendly and helpful. 10/10 would recommend it!!!

Wonderful introduction to the world of perfume!

Global rating Quality/price Fun

This was a great introduction to Fragonard and how to make perfume. Very fun to mix our own, and everyone in my family of four (2 adults and 2 children) came up with a different combination. It was the right amount of time for the workshop, as everyone was engaged the entire time. Definitely worth the price and time to do this!

Wonderful

Wonderful experience!

Overall experience was awesome! Thoroughly enjoyed hearing about Fragonard’s history, their processes and especially the details of creating fragrances. And getting to create our own fragrance was fun. Highly recommend.

Very interesting workshop with fun-factor

Global rating Quality/price Fun

Great workshop under very dedicated leadership. We have learned and seen a lot. Nevertheless we had a lot of fun doing it. Highly recommended, good value for money. Nice and well-informed guide who was able to answer all questions perfectly in many languages. Nice, homemade farewell present.

Fun experience

Global rating Quality/price Fun

My two teen daughters and I did the workshop and had a fun time creating our fragrance, although you aren’t really creating something original. You are sort of customizing an already-created scent. Still, we loved the woman who ran our tour and workshop and enjoyed the experience.

Fun Tour!

Global rating Quality/price Fun

This was such a fun tour! Our guide was very knowledgable and made the presentations interesting. We got to try & guess various scents and made our own perfume. Definitely worth an hour of your day!

Nice and informative visit

Global rating Quality/price Fun

We had booked the mini-workshop, and it was a nice visit with an informative tour and a workshop, where we made our own perfumes. Can definitely recommend.

Interesting and fun

Family experience.

Global rating Quality/price Fun

Great experience. Wish they had provided water. It was a very hot day. I also wish we had the ability to make our own scent not a predesigned one. But still a good time. No discount for those of us who attended the class.

Wonderful!

Global rating Quality/price Fun

Had a great time at the workshop. The tour guide was great, and my group and I enjoyed learning about the unique parts of the Fragonard Perfumery, such as the use of Narcisse.

Must do activity in Eze

Global rating Quality/price Fun

Great experience; even my husband enjoyed, and it was a feminine fragrance we made. Our tour hostess was wonderful- interesting and informative. 45 minutes was the perfect amount of time.

It was okay

Global rating Quality/price Fun

I liked the explanation of how perfume is made. I did not like how limited the perfume making experience is, as there were only 3 ingredients to choose from. At the end of the experience, it was too much of a sales pitch.

Absolutely lovely

Global rating Quality/price Fun

Had a wonderful time at this experience and I would recommend it to anyone. The tour was very interesting, our guide was knowledgeable, and making the perfume was incredibly fun. Great value for money!

Making Perfume was Fun, but not Worth the Price

Global rating Quality/price Fun

Making the perfume and learning a little perfume history was fun, but the tour was super short and not worth 30 euros. Way overpriced.

Fun and creative activity

Global rating Quality/price Fun

Such a fun experience! Our guide was wonderful and making the perfume was such a fun and creative activity. I would absolutely do this again.

A unique experience; fun, fragrant and a little bit different!

Global rating Quality/price Fun

I really enjoyed this little tour; indeed I wish it was a little more in-depth but it was still fun to do! The guide – I'm sorry but I forget her name! – was a wealth of information, humorous, warm and accommodating. One thing you could include are pens for each participant to write down their notes, thoughts and most importantly their secret "formula" for their personal fragrances. (The guide kindly loaned me her pen... But I still forgot my formula. It smelled nice though!) Definitely something different and well worth doing.

Worth it

Global rating Quality/price Fun

Perfect for a rainy day on the Riviera. Got to learn about the perfume process and mix your own combination from their starters. Well worth the 29 euro!

Excellent

Well organized and nice time. The people at „Accueil“ and the guide lady were very good. It was a highlight of my holiday in Nice.

Magdalena made this experience!

Global rating Quality/price Fun

We absolutely LOVED the experience but loved our guide even more. Magdalena was friendly, helpful, and super knowledgeable. She even recognized us back in Nice and said hello! We would absolutely recommend this experience for anyone looking to learn more about the process. Getting to make an eau du toilette was so much fun and a highlight of our trip.
