We really enjoyed this interactive experience. Our guide Ester was fantastic. She lead us through making our own eau de toilette while she explained how perfume is made. She then gave us a tour of the small museum and brought us to the on site shop to smell perfumes. Just the perfect blend of hands on activity mixed with some history. Would definitely do this again!!

We had such an amazing time on this tour! We learned so much, had so much fun making our own bottles, and had a great time learning all the base scents. We loved the gift shop too!

Our tour guide was very informative and engaging. She did a great job of showing us how to make our custom perfume as well.

So much fun!!

Best experience with my kids. We learned a lot about perfumes. Making our own samples with my teenager kids was a memorable and bonding experience. Thank you!

Perfume Making Class

Kaitlin_G, Aug 2026
This was a great experience. The tour guide was welcoming and provided a lot of cool facts about the history of perfume and the perfume making process!

Lovely Experience!

Julie_P, Aug 2026
This experience was so lovely! Our leader was informative, fun, and patient. She answered everyone’s questions with expertise and helpful opinions. Highly recommend this experience!

10/10 would do again!

Julie_S, Jul 2026
Very cool experience for any mom travelling with their daughters, as I was. Learned a lot and got to walk away with a fun memento from our trip.

Great little workshop

Emmanuelle_V, Jul 2026
Short and sweet and really fun. Our guide was lovely and the setting (Maria callas old apartment !) is beautiful

Disappointed a more hands on to make perfume manly smell for 2 boys in group

Chris_D, Jul 2026
Not a lot of time to look at items in the displays Not for men No discount on buying products after paying for making perfume

Fun at Fragonard Paris

Susan_B, Jul 2026
We absolutely loved this experience! It was wonderful to learn about the scent-making process and 100-year history of Fragonard - and we loved making our own personal scent as well! Our guide was fabulous and so knowledgeable. She also spent lots of time with us in the shop allowing us to smell all the Fragonard scents we wanted so we could make good purchase decisions. This was a highlight of our time in Paris.

Great family tour

Christel_K, Jun 2026
Such a cute and fun experience. We had an 8 and 11 year old boys and a 17 year old girl and all loves making a scent and learning about perfume.

Wonderful family experience that we all enjoyed!

Jill_M, Jun 2026
Our family of 5 really enjoyed this experience. The highlight was leaving with our very own scent! Our guide, Alexandra, was wonderful! We are so thankful for her expertise and kindness!

I enjoyed this experience.

Tamara_B, Jun 2026
This was a nice way to spend a morning. I think I would have enjoyed it more if there were additional oils / notes to choose from for the perfume workshop portion. There were only 3 bottles to use for the creation of the perfume. I enjoyed the discovery of the makers perfume at the end more than I thought I would. In fact, I may go back and purchase a small bottle.

Great experience to have...

Tesa_C, May 2026
Great experience to have in Paris. Quite educational as well. Walking away with your own little perfume is a nice momento to take with you

Please add to your itinerary

Please be on time, very informative event. I actually learned a few tips and understood perfumery a little better although I have a lot of basic knowledge .

The making your own...

Kristine_V, May 2026
The making your own perfume part is about 30min, the rest is the museum tour and sampling the house's scents. The guide was very informative and fun! i gave in and got a 5pack of parfum but it'll be a great memento!

TREAT yourself, and visit the Fragonard Perfumery11

christine_w, May 2026
This experience was well worth every penny we paid! I learned so many interesting facts about the production of fragrances!! I had seen a story produced by 60 MINUTES on May 4 about the town Of Grasse in southern France, and its farming of roses and Jasmine whose blossoms are used in the production of perfume. It was a perfect connection to the Fragonard talk and tour!!!

Save your Euros for a more personal experience/souvenir!

Emily_W, May 2026
FYI, admission to the museum is free, and there is a purchasing department at the end of the free tour. Learning about the different elements that compose a perfume was interesting, but we didn’t actually get to customize much of the perfume. The class works with a specific perfume in mind already made by the manufacturer. Our guide was sufficiently knowledgeable, but rushed through many of the historical aspects of perfume making, a the tour itself.

45min of your day sorted.

Gabrielle_S, May 2026
a very informative 45min tour & workshop, our guide was excellent. She made sure we felt comfortable & confident to ask questions.

Christina_M, Apr 2026
This was a great experience! Great tour with interesting info-and not too long for the kids (tweens--both boys and girls). Our tour guide was very friendly and patient with the kids. Making our own perfume scent was lots of fun! I would definitely recommend this to anyone!

Fantastic activity

Christine_F, Apr 2026
Informative. Great tour guide. A delightful challenge producing our own perfume to take home. Highly recommend.

Nice Activity

Maria_J, Apr 2026
Nice experience learning about the history behind perfumes. I enjoyed making my own personal and unique scent! Lovely memory of Paris.

There are better ones out there.

Julie_l, Apr 2026
This class is very elementary and I believe designed to be a sales pitch to buy perfume. I would take a hard pass and take advantage of other classes in Paris that are better.

Great for 12 yr old daughter.

Cynthia_G, Apr 2026
I took my 12 year old daughter. We enjoyed the short tour and the perfume experience. It was a little more than an hour and that was perfect. Easy to find and I really liked the sample we walked away with.

Such a fun experience

Jessica_M, Apr 2026
We absolutely loved this activity. We did it as a family - my husband, our 11 year old daughter and me. It was so much fun to create the layers of fragrance, and all were thrilled with our individual scents. This is something I would absolutely recommend in Paris.

Very interesting and...

Joseph_H, Mar 2026
Very interesting and informative. Only problem was presenters English difficult to understand at times, and quite a bit of noise from others visiting museum.

Great experience!

Tricia_L, Mar 2026
It was interesting learning about the history of perfume. My daughter and I really enjoyed making our own fragrance. We were tasked with replicating a new Fragonard perfume but were able to achieve our own scent. Super fun couple of hours.

Fun event

Susan_S, Mar 2026
Well thought out event showing history of perfume and how it's made before making our own. I would have liked access to more scent choices (would even pay extra for access to more choices) during the make your own signature scent. But still really enjoyed this.

Great and fun experience

irma_g, Mar 2026
This was a great experience for perfume making, although the experience was a bit short. At the end, it was great that you got to keep your perfume sample. The Fragonard house has amazing perfumes.

Wonderful Experience

Ken_G, Jan 2026
This is a fun learning experience. We got to create our own perfume and take it with us at the end. Isabella was our guide/instructor and you can tell she is very happy and passionate about the perfume making process.
