The Scented Life: All about fragrance

Want a Perfumed Vacation? Go to Grasse!

by Amy on September 24th, 2008

I ran across this short article with a few helpful links.  If your vacation itinerary is wide open, and you’d like to see how perfume comes to be created, from rose petals to the final package, Grasse, France is the obvious choice.  If you read Perfume (the novel) or saw the movie, the perfumer/killer makes his way to Grasse, which has been a perfume capital of the world for centuries.  You can tour perfume houses/factories and learn everything you could possibly want to know about how perfume is made.

To get to Grasse, probably your entry to France will be through Paris, which is also a great place to shop for perfumes.  Just make sure you have secure storage to get all your new treasures home safely!

Would you take a perfume-themed vacation?  I would, but it’d be hard to convince my significant other to come along!
