Great fun but smell doesn't last more than 12 to 24 hours
I really really enjoyed this course and my perfumes smelled amazing on the day I made it. However. My top note of lychee was the only thing to really hang around for a couple hours and after that the perfume just drifts into almost nothing to nothing at all within 12 to 24 hours. Cannot believe it as the scents seemed to be so powerful in the class.... I'd really love to understand why this is. Obky other thing I'd say is that you get an yoir here and the very very minimum you need is 90 mins and also the spinning table shared by up to 8 people in order to access the smells is not right for this experience at all.
Not memorable and quite disappointing experience
Booking was easy. The location was beautiful. However, the experience was wanting in several aspects for two of us who were experiencing this for the first time. Our instructor was formal but in a stand-offish manner. No introduction of herself so I don’t even know how to address her. There was a sense of trying to rush through the programme, curt in instructions and a lot of assumptions that people knew what to do automatically. There was very little guidance about how to think about creating an appropriate sense that would suit each individual. Just a general introduction of the fragrance pyramid and then general instructions to choose however many scents you like and note it down. The instructor was busy most of the time writing certificates and names so there was not much opportunity for questions and interaction. Also althogh the class was relatively small 7 pax, there were French and English-sneaking participants, so instructions had to be given twice in both languages which took up time. And then having to individually deal with each person’s scent which led to quite abit of waiting time for your turn after having picking up your scents. Not the fault of the instructor, just the structure of the workshop and possibly lack of staff. At the end, all the fragrance strips were sorted and some removed by the instructor put for you to whiff if you liked it. What was off-putting was the instructor just discarded on her own the fragrances she felt didn’t work and didn’t explain. It was only upon probing that she explained very briefly without even looking at me that those scents were a certain way and will not work, while rigorously writing down the scents on the certificate. It reinforced the sense of rushing through the programme to end on time within the hour. On the whole, it put an unfortunate blemish to the whole Grasse experience for the day ending it on a low despite being the part we were looking most forward to. To be fair, it was not meant to be a fully personalised experience and there was another dedicated workshop for that. But I think the fun factor and experience could be enhanced with more instructions and guidance as the general types of scent families (wood, floral, fruit et ) and how some typical combinations would be put together for certain outcomes, to give first-timers some sense of how to navigate the 50-60 bottles of different scents on the table. Also besides the main instructor, having an additonal support staff to move around and help prompt each individual through the process would help enhance the experience and not just leave you feeling that you were tossed into a ‘lego pit’ to build whatever you wanted. And finally, having two languages in one session reeks of bad taste as it seems like the workshops were combined because there were few participants. And it realistically ate into time for instructions. I hope the experience can be improved for other visitors of the future, to build a better brand experience, and not just be a one-time thing for tourists on their visit to Grasse.

Dear Royston Lee, Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review of your experience. We’re sorry to hear that the workshop didn’t fully meet your expectations, and we truly value your feedback regarding the pace, the group format, and the interaction with our expert. We’d like to provide a bit of context. On the day of your visit, two tables were arranged specifically to ensure greater comfort and a smoother group experience. Our perfume expert especially with small groups like yours , is always present and available throughout the session to answer questions and offer support. We’re sorry if her guidance felt limited or impersonal at times, and we’ll be sure to pass your comments on to the team so we can continue improving the overall guest experience. As you mentioned, the workshop you attended was our Classic Workshop, which is a group session designed to introduce participants to the basics of fragrance creation. It is conducted in both French and English, depending on the participants present. While this can sometimes lengthen the instruction time, it ensures that everyone is able to fully enjoy the experience in their preferred language. For a more exclusive, private, and in-depth experience, we also offer our Prestige Workshops, held in smaller groups, with personalized guidance in a quieter, more intimate setting. Once again, thank you for your thoughtful comments. They help us continuously refine our offerings, and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again for an experience that better matches your expectations. Warm regards, The Molinard Team
scent only lasts an hour
For all this money I paid this fragrance only lasts about an hour. As soon as the headnotes wear off there is no scent left. Forget about heart notes and base notes. Just nothing, very disappointed as making perfume has been my dream for years, I attended the workshop on my actual birthday and what a let down. Money out the window, poor quality

Hello Krisztina, We are truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations, especially on such a special day. Please know that all our creations during the workshops are eau de parfums, carefully crafted to offer a balanced blend of top, heart, and base notes. During the workshop, we take time to explain the essential role each note plays in creating a harmonious composition. However, the longevity and development of the fragrance can vary depending on the raw materials used, and the maceration period plays an important role in fixing the scent. Typically, a maceration of around 10 days is recommended, but this can be longer depending on the ingredients chosen. We understand your disappointment and thank you for sharing your feedback. Best regards, The Molinard Team
