We didn't know what to expect, but it turned out to be lots of fun and very informative. The person teaching us was really good at her job, helping each of us create a sample of our own perfume that we could take home. It was so good that several people bought more of the perfumes they created. I highly recommend this tour.

An expert perfumer guides you through the history and base theory of fragrance making. Her enthusiasm to help you find your own unique fragrance is contagious, and motivates you to get it just right! The amount of fragrance you make is very generous as well, and worth the class fee by itself. Prepare to have fun and learn a lot!

Suraj_M, Jul 2025

A really fun and interactive experience. The instructor was really patient and flexible in helping my wife and I make a perfume together. It’s a really nice experience and you walk away with a nice size bottle of perfume. Recommend this to anyone wanting a perfume experience in Nice without having to go to Grasse.

Fragrance class

Kimberly_U, Jul 2025

We had the best time creating our own personalized fragrance. Catalina was so amazing and helpful guiding us through the process. Highly recommend such a fun experience!

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you Kimberly! Pleasure was all ours!

Fantastic experience!

Jayne_r, Jul 2025

Caroline was a master biochemist who explained with great detail the process of making perfumes. We thoroughly enjoyed the olfactory experience and love wearing our amazing new scents! 🌟🌟🌟 thank you!!

Great experience / Concoct your own scent!

Steve_K, Jul 2025

"Princess Caroline" was effervescent and spunky guide to perfume making. She managed a good sized class and yet gave personized attention to each student. Came away with a nice cologne / perfume and have the opportunity to purchase more because the ingredient make-up is kept on file. Would recommend to anyone.

So enjoyable!

Sullivan_M, Jun 2025

Excellent and so much fun! Loved Caroline (the princess) and how she expertly put perfume together. She had us layering fragrances like a pro! I loved the 2 fragrances I made!

Would Recommend!

Ariel_S, Jun 2025

Great experience. Teacher was knowledgeable and we all got to leave with a one of a kind perfume fit to our preferences!

Intimate and Personalized workshop

Afshan_H, May 2025

Great experience. It was much more intimate and personal than the Fragonard workshop. The instructor spent time with each of us (only 3 people in our workshop) to find what we love and to educate us on why we need the different notes. Love that you can reorder your fragrance. 2 Watch outs: if they make you a second bottle smell it before you leave. Their version did not smell like the one I made. Also, they only take cash or PayPal for payment.

Response from Host, May 2025

Thank you for your kind and constructive comments ! To answer your "Watchouts", please note that we do take credits carts normally but we currently waiting for the new terminal to replace ours. Also, it is not excpetional that your perfume does not match your initial creation. I will investigate that this week and get back to you. My sincere apologies for this inconvenience ! Kind regards, Sasha

Great workshop!

Melissa_S, May 2025

Super fun and very informative! I left with a wonderful custom perfume and a new appreciation for the process of perfume making. Highly recommend.

Response from Host, May 2025

Merci Melissa !!

Best experience in Nice!!

SHeryl_G, May 2025

It was absolutely phenomenal. The class was done in both French and English, which made us feel like we were in a classroom in France… Which was amazing.! Our facilitator was knowledgeable, fun, and very experienced in helping us pick our very own individual fragrance. I would not hesitate to recommend this workshop to anyone visiting Nice!

Response from Host, May 2025

Great experience

Raissa_M, Nov 2024

The workshop was a great experience. The instructor was very patient, knowledgeable, and personable. Everything was nicely organized and laid out. We left the workshop knowing more about the perfume making process and with a unique scent of our own. Highly recommend it if you want a different experience and special way to remember Nice.

Good experience and love my perfume !

Abbe_D, Oct 2024

The event was interesting and fun to make your own perfume. Basic instruction was easy to follow and Sasha was very nice and inclusive. Experience would have been better if water or coffee or Prosecco were included !

Can’t miss experience

Sofia_L, Aug 2024

Such a unique experience you do not want to miss! It was so nice learning the history of perfumery. Our group leader was very knowledgeable and super helpful when choosing scents to make your customization. You take home a nice sized glass perfume and can order your exact customized perfume online since they keep your order!!

Interactive, educational, fun!

amber_k, Aug 2024

I loved this perfume class so much. The instructor was very detailed and friendly. She was able to speak in many language to communicate with students from various countries. I loved how interacting the class was and how fun it was to experiment with different fragrances. The best part of the class is getting to walk away with your own personalized fragrance. The instructor saves your ingredients and allows you to order another bottle of your perfume.

This was so much fun!

John_C, Aug 2024

A must do while you are in Nice. 2 hours, got a little history lesson about the art of perfume making and were able to create your own scent. We All had a great time and would definately do it again.

Great fun, great perfume
